it's not bug its feature
I noticed that something is wrong with v-synch.When is disabled- 2d menu working worse, slow, freezes sometimes.when I turn on vsync everything works better, okay.I tested it many times. Something really is wrong with this option.even freezing the menu from my other thread is less common when I use vsynch on.maybe it's also related to ctd.
I will check clean 1.16 version and report later.
On 116 (not clean, only changed exe without your gauges mi 28) still ctd when change campaign.
Wow i just delete eech.ini and game.cfg, run latest Javelin 09 exe, and ALL WORKS ! I can change campaign, skirmish, everything works without ctd. I nothing change in eech.ini. Just deleted old and run game.
tested many times.
