My experience with CTD's are that, aside from the crew management icon bug, they always occur when attacking a particular convoy. This also is tied to inexplicable slowdowns as well. I have reloaded and gone after the same convoy multiple times, and eventually suffered a CTD. However, if I ignore that convoy and find another to torment, there's no problem. My initial hunch is that is either a texture or engine sound for a perticular ship in the convoy that's the culprit, and that this ship/texture is in the convoys that are causing me fits. The large tanker is my suspect for now, as whenever I used the external cam to cycle through ships, the large tanker (T3, is it?) is very choppy. Star shells and the sun glare sometimes cause extreme choppiness as well. I'm running GW 1.1 (have only ever played the game with this mod) and I'm running an Ahlon XP 3000+, ATI 9800 Pro with Cat 5.6, DirectX 9.0c. The game is jacked to 1280x1024 with 4x AA and in normal circumstances, FPs is in the 50s-60s.
