O.O
You should change the resolution of the files. 1024x1024 is very big for a side, but some have this size. Most have 512x512. What's your size??

Remember that each time you scale a texture up or down, you're multiplying or dividing its size by 4.

As an example, a 2048² texture will be 4 times as large as a 1024² texture.

A unit's texture should never be larger than 1024² under pretty much any circumstances.

It looks like your ram has not enough free space to allocate the given 411020 bytes (0,4MB)
Maybe your ram is full. How much have you installed?? And can you show us the line where you need to allocate 411020 bytes?? I use values maximal around 10^3. You have 10^5.

(don't know but i think the SetMemoryPool line allocates in bytes and not in Megabytes)

it's in the lua file.

2GB only?? can i may ask what operation System you are using?? Because even Windows 7 (x64) needs 2GB Ram for the system. So you maybe should upgrade your RAM ;)

Looks all normal. Have you tryed to start the game again??

If you open the task manager you should see how much RAM is used. If it's over 90% i'd say that's the problem. You could send the map/mod to someone with more ram to try if it works for him.
