Random crashes after misions?

[Psycho0124]

Is anyone else experiancing random crashes after some missions?
I noticed it didnt happen very often while flying a fighter but since I hopped into the seat of a Destroyer, the game sometimes crashes after the mission report is closed.

It seems to be far more likely to crash if I farcase/quantum to another sector and do a lot of fighting. One of the missions netted me nearly 3000 pts but brcause it crashes as/before its saving, I had to replay it.[:(]

I have had 14 of them so far, all identical to this one:

Faulting application stars.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module stars.exe, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0009fa75.

Well...I've been gettin a few as well...but I'm not sure if its the game or the mods I'm using that may or may not cause conflict.So its kinda hard for me to be sure if its an exe problem or not.But I can say this...my virtual pit didn't work with the stars.exe SHORTCUT using mod folders.By changeing the stars exe shortcut  to the same name as the gathering storm exe,I was able to get my pit back..same exe mind you ,just different name???.So I believe there is some weird issue in the exe somewhere.And possibly other issues as well.The DEV's need to chime in here and start discussions on this release inorder to work out these bugs or atleast give us the confidence that our issues are being heard and addressed.This silence is getting frustrating as you probable can see by coments made in most other support threads.All thats needed is feedback.

edit...Hmmm...seems you already may be aware of this...

Just found it myself and supports what i said above.I have to wonder though if all the bug reports going on aren't the result of the mix up...and why its not anounced anywhere visible?

Well im not running the old exe anymore. I just deleted it and renamed the patch exe to match. Ill play a little later this evening and see if it makes a differance but I dont see how it really could. The exe calls on other supporting files to operate but its own name shouldnt matter since its executing all the code itsself. We shall see I suppose.

Damn...I was hopeing that wasn't the case(that you had upgraded your exe already)...not a good sign.I wonder if I should bother/need to upgrade mine???[&:]

EDIT...btw...I just realised that MY crashes are DURING missions...not after.

Well I played for a few hours and racked up quite a few points (even made capt.) without a single crash. Dunno if it made a differance but its sure looking like it has.
