PLJ's stubborn attempt to track CTD's

I will be devoting some time to CTD tracking from now on. If you use sober's list, and get CTD's, read on:

Please reply in this topic, and upload a save of the situation closest to that CTD, and what I need to do to replicate it. I will then try to do just that, and start collecting info and comparing situations. I will be reporting back regularly and probably asking questions too, as my actual game knowledge is atm limited, so I'll probably have some questions along the way.

Situations where you seem to be getting random CTD's while doing nothing but watching stars or sub interior: please report the gametime between last save and CTD and actions taken between those two points as best as possible.

If you use a different list then sober's current list, which prevents me from using the save, I will probably not look into it unless it doesnt take me half a campaign to get to the point of CTD.

Feel free to discuss any CTD related issue here, it might spark ideas and it wont litter other topics that mention one, but are not ment for in-dept discussion about them. (guilty of that myself)

This is obviously not related to CTD's that can be related to a version update of one of the mods or using different versions of mods or different orders.

================================================== ================================================== =======================

- First of all, saving often seems to keep CTD's to a minimum. Using a lot of TC at high rates between saves seems to increase the risk of CTD's. Reloaded games often work fine.
- Need to test with minimum .exe patching and see if CTD's persist
- JSGME seems to play a role in certain CTD scenarios
