I posted this on the Starshatter Mods forum, but I figured it was worth a shot here too. I've gotten through the first three campaigns fine, but after finishing the last mission in Operation Shining Fortress, after the mission completion video plays and the video for the start of Operation Firestorm finishes, the game crashes to desktop right as the mission selection screen comes up. In addition, I haven't been able to access the tactical reference either. It'll load up about 90% of the way and crash to desktop as well. Just downloaded the latest drivers for my video card (nVidia GeForce FX 5200), and haven't had any change. I've included the error log below for the crash at the start of the Firestorm campaign. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!
