Load Map Problem.
I will take Dota6.59d map.
Even if you download or you make your own .cfg in GhostOne he must be ok from moment you creat it or downloaded but some time you have small change that look like your map is load(in Ghost) but if you check the LOG you see this problem.

map is load in ghost but no one will be able to join your game and not you your self.
The problem in fifth line from top small error in map name in .cfg file.
[UTIL] warning - unable to read file [d:\Warcraft III\Maps\Download\DotA_Allstars_v6.59d.w3x] this is the problem " DotA_Allstars_v6.59d.w3x " you see between Dota and Alstars words you have " _ " this is the problem.
if you look in side your Warcraft III\Map\Download dir you will see the right file name is Dota Allstars V6.59d.w3x.
What you need to do is simple you need to go to your GhostOne dir my is in drive D:\ so it will look like this and where i need to go d:\Warcraft III\ghost11\mapcfgs\ where is my dota6.59d.cfg file is and double click it open it with Wordpad or any other program, change the last line in dota6.59d.cfg file that will look like this like the orignal file name.
