Serious video crash with GTX 660Ti

Thing is you do not need more than 2 gigs to get good performance out of the game. Game crashes are due to poor mod selections or orders, corrupt files or incorrect graphic settings more than they are how much ram your using. The game can do anything you want without the LAA.

Yes I understand the why of it being there. It just isn't really needed.

I don't recall ever bothering with playing stock SH4. But I know that with only TMO and RSRDC (and its patch) I would CTD almost every time I tried to return to port. I started saving when about 200 miles out so that I could reload and try again. Usually that would let me end a patrol. Usually.

After I added in OTC it got even worse. Convoys would sometimes crash me out. Getting too close to ANY harbor almost definitely would.

And then I found LAA. I haven't crashed out since. I can load the museum and I can sail straight into Pearl Harbor at the end of a patrol.

The game could do anything I wanted without LAA. Except keep running.

The whole game crash thing I have always found weird. The only time I have ever had an issue was either incompatible mods in the list or a corrupt file.

Then again I am not prone to unload a mods list then reload another and go fishing.

I began on every new mod list to simply reload the entire game and never get the corrupt issues. Nothing is flawless but if you want the cleanest game then installing a fresh copy and then loading your mods in the proper order will eliminate a huge number of reason that others have crashes.
