bf1942 random crashes

on certain maps (and more specificaly, a map with lots of flying battleships) the game crashes after a certain game time. The crash doesn't appear to be triggered by any specific conflicting event, it just crashes. It feels like something (a file or a memory pool) saturates after a while, causing the game to crash, but no error message is given.

the game also has a tendency to randomly crash while loading a game. each map crashes at a specific point in during the loading (el alamein crashes roughly around 60% and battleaxe crashes around 85%) but these crashes are random, and very annoying given the trial and error method of modding this game has.

windows 7..

random crahes on load are common for me and many others.

random crash during game like that is something I experienced for the first time ever only recently although it was on a heavily tweaked custom map with some crazy spawn action so it was probably that :)

With the shorcut set to Win98 compatibility mode, I never get a game crash.

Have you used the debugger to see if there are any bugs it can find?
