Game crashes back to desktop during gameplay in one of the fan missions

In one of the fan missions I was playing. "Briarwood Manor" When I enter the lobby, the game suddenly crashed on me. I saved my game thank god and was able to complete the mission without any more problems, but just wanted to point that out in maybe updating the mission file of getting rid of that bug. It's not my computer since I meet the requirements. Other fan missions work just fine, I tested a few other ones and was able to complete those as well.

First of all, are you able to reproduce it?

Does it occur every time you reload a save and get to that spot? Also try to start the game from scratch and get to that spot as well. Try both options several times.

 

If you can reproduce it, record a log (darkmod.exe +condump mylog.txt) and link the file here.

When you want to play the mission again, would you be so kind to generate a logfile?

Before you start tdm, add/change the line in your darkmod.cfg: seta logFile "2"

play the mission. If the game then chrashes, you can find a logfile (qconsole.log) inside your tdm\fm folder.

You can open that file using notepad. Please post its content in a spoiler-tag in this topic.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
