This is just a warning to map makers, Original War's "Bin" files can not handle areas wider than 255. If your map has an area that is larger it will not save correctly and when loaded it will give a range check error. The txt format can handle it fine however, so you can load any maps effected by it by simply deleting the bin file (You would still need to resize or delete the offending area).
There is no simple way to fix it as it would either break all existing maps or would limit your map to newer versions of OW.
(For anyone interested Altar used a Byte to store the length of the data. Bytes go from 0 to 255)
