if you want all the File 00000xx and whatnot removed, use a better listfile.
The werid filenames appear because the mpq editor doesn't know what the file name is
So, if you use a better listfile, you have a more comprehensive list of possible names of the files

To get a better listfile, you can:
1) request it
2) use w3mpqfns
3) try mpq recover
4) look in the .j file to see if any are listed
5) name breaker (annoyingly long =/)
6) guess o.o

but you missed a couple of spots

look in the war3map.wts file
and it's the first line (string 5000)

look in the war3mapSkin.txt
search for UPKEEP_NONE=v6.72f
and change the version

EDIT:

Don't forget to hex edit the map it self. This question has been answered like 100 times. Search the next time.
