May be diferent situation but may be the same reason...

May be due to the lack of one object or texture of one object wich enter into the mission ?

I my case it happens when Liberators apperas, but may be due to a weapon they have... where are the textures for the bombs and depth charges ?

I attemp to put another B-24 files, where it has diferent loadout, i put the mos complete one... and the same.

If this is any help-----i use the GW1.1a+compatible UWAC 1.7 +sh3commander2.6 and sh3 generator---have lower end system (only 512 ram and 256 nividea vid card)--only have got to the norway operations (6th patrol with IIa) but no ctds.. it momentarily lags when starting in harbor and starting into multi-ship battles but no other probs....even used external view on stuka and followed it around as it zipped around and bombed the danzing port (no lag or ctds).
have not seen a liberator yet but if i get same ill let you know.

Many thanks for interesting in to help U-sanfu....

I am using the v1.8, and have some FPS problems too with a PIV 3.4, ATI X800XT PE 256mb and 3 GB Ram, in same situations like you, when at port, ships battles and when attack big convoys and there are explosions and particles.
When at night i have a little problem to run at 2048X, and some little problems at strom too.
Ocasionally i have low FPS when run 2 or 3 missions without to reboot the PC.
I use it to detect convoys, in example, when i run at 2048x and my icon strat to jump i know there are some units near... then i submerge and hear with the hydrophones....
I am closing my antivirus and other background programs in last days using "End It All" and it seems to help.

But the low FPS are not related to the CTD i suffer, it happens always when Liberator appears and become into visual range, it not happens when my crew detect its radar emissions, it happens after the plane icons appears on the map, due to this i think it may be related to a plane weapon, in example when it operate a weapon as a bomb or depth charge, may be i have the lack of some file or texture or some thing, i have not skill with the weapon nodes and those things....

Any idea and help is welcome.....

I would suggest to save your current game in port and do a complete new install of SH3+Patch1.4 and War Ace Campaign 1.8!
Often there are problems coming up if you install and uninstall several mods in one installation with jsme. Actually I experienced that!

Many thanks for help HanSolo !

I do not use JSME, any way i have a personalized install, i dont use all the changes made by V1.8, specially those graphic changes. In example i like my own camos and contact book, and many other textures, plus i like my own AI sensors and sensors.

I made it with other mods and no problem was present.

I fresh install is not an option, because i have stored my omplete SH3 folder, i made a fresh install and then erase the SH3 folder completelly and replace it by my own.

Normally the game crashes when in the mission, it call for a unit you have not installed... due to that i was thinking in some Liberator weapon...

I never experienced a CTD in SH3 in the past...

But i have installed the sea, air and land units of the 1.8 mod... any way i attempt changing liberator files by another files from many mods and is the same.

I was able to let the port after play the mission many times, if i reach to shot down some Liberators, then there is not a CTD.

Do you think it is due to the saved game bug ?

Then a fresh install may help sue to the complete replacement of the files into "My Documents" folder.
