I had the same problem with torpedoes when I was trying out TheDarkWraith Depth charge water disturbances mod, this is the link for that mod, http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=181540 there is also a link for the crash fix by razark in post 59, it could help with your torpedo problem as it did with mine.

I was unsure about the installation so I'm going to write my procedure here:

I deactivated all mods.
Went to TMO2.5/data/library and put the water disturbance file in there
Activated TMO2.5 +RSRDC + 25%+torp damage in JSGME

Result:
shcollisions.dat crash

This is what it says on the torpedo download page,
here is the TORPEDO +20_ or +25_ more powerful.7z mod im not sure if this 1.5 compatible either so you will have to check it commander lare.
I would download Webster's Improved US Torpedo for v1.4 and v1.5, if that mod crashes as well it would rule out any problem with the torpedo mod you are currently using.

Yeah... Webster's improved US torpedo mod caused the same crash.
I used the V1 (25%)

It's really weird.

I believe your problem is here. Others have reported crashes with this. I think there is a fix, but since I don't use TMO, I can't give you details.

But I installed that file according to Moonlight's instructions, to prevent the crash, not to cause it. With or without that file the game still crashes

What order did you activate your mods?

If you put the fix for the water disturbance file in, but a later mod, such as 25%+torp damage, overwrites it, that would cause the problem.

The order is
TMO2.5>RSRDC>25%torp damage

Well, of course I have to put the 25%+torpedo damage last or else TMO would overwrite the Torpedoes_US.zon file

Plus the water disturbance file is called
TMO2_fix_for_TDW_DC_Water_Disturbance_v2_0_SH4.dat

The file type is different and description is different. How can it overwrite the torpedo damage mod and vice versa?

Have you tried putting the changed values from the torpedo mod you are using into TMO's torpedoes_US.zon.

Think he was stating it as a possibility, just compare and make sure what files newer mods overwrite.

But where is the TMO2_fix_for_TDW_DC_Water_Disturbance_v2_0_SH4.dat in the above? I don't know the details of these mods and do not use them, but the CTD's you describe sound like the problems people reported with this one. My guess is that if you leave out either TDW_DC_Water_Disturbance_v2_0_SH4, or the 25%+torp damage mod, you will eliminate the crashes. In other words they don't want to play well together.
