Issues loading shapefiles not made in Crusta

[amforte]

I've had some issues trying to load shapefiles that were not originally produced in Crusta. I have followed the instructions on the Crusta page to assign z-values to the shapefile and assured that it has a vertical projection system. The spatial extent of the shapefile is much smaller than the spatial extent of the dem dataset loaded into crusta. I encountered two different errors:

1. Attempting to load in a shapefile with different columns in its attribute table than what is output by crusta - This produced a string of errors in the terminal window, repeating "ERROR 1:Invalid Index: -1" for every polyline. Crusta loaded a vector file that appeared to be a spiderweb of lines that covered the entire globe and promptly crashed.
2. Attempting to load same shapefile with same columns in its attribute table as what is output by crusta - This did not produce any errors in the terminal window and there was a message indicating that the polylines had been loaded. However, the spideweb of lines covering the globe appeared again.

Have you been able to load any shape files not produced by crusta?

Can you provide example shape files? Especially simple ones that exhibit this behavior.

Here is a link to a practice shapefile and associated globefile. I have processed the shapefile using ArcScene to give it z-values using the dem I used to build the globefile. I have not done anything to clean up the attribute table of the shapefile, so this a good representative sample of a random shapefile that someone might want to import into crusta. Let me know if you need any more info.

The shapefile is within the "streams" folder. It is a streamnetwork extracted by ArcGIS. As a point of reference, I used Arc 9.3 for all of this.
The globefile (sulak.globeFile) is just the dem for the area from which I extracted the stream network
