Can you be more specific about the scene "crashing"?

I do notice a pause between parsing and the start of the render,
probably related to the many warning messages your scene produces, but
after a few seconds the render does proceed.

You can avoid the warning messages (and the unexpected pause) by
replacing "ambient 0.5" with "emission 0.5" in the "Fire_Texture" macro,
or by using "#version 3.6" instead of "#version 3.7".
