The xcpt files are generated when the game crashes, and they contain very little useful information.

I'm starting to suspect that the problem is not in the mods, but in the game installation itself. It may be worth checking the integrity of the files or reinstalling the game completely (preferably with clearing traces in the registry after removal, for example using the free version of CCleaner).

Your game is installed in the C:\Games folder. What is the source of this installation?

How I check integrity?

Yes I install all my games in that folder. I actually have issue with the game making the electronic arts folder in the documents. I hate it there. Can the game be made generate the folder in other place?

Do you mean source like the Ea app? I use cds. If i have to reinstall it be a lot of work and i have to go find my thing that i can plug in the pc to put the cd in.

I like to understand the logs better because I still need to find the mod that breaks oportunitues and shows. What did you saw in the log that now the game files might be broken?

I noticed that the resource.cfg file has been modified and not by me.

Priority 500
PackedFile "Packages/*.package"
PackedFile "Packages/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Packages/*/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Packages/*/*/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Packages/*/*/*/*/*.package"

Priority 1500

Priority 1000
PackedFile "Overrides/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*/*/*/*.package"

Could that be a problem?

The logs didn't say anything about it, but I wanted to rule out the factor that the crashing problem could be related to the game files. For example, when you have problems with the drive or use an illegal version of the game. In the case of the disk version, there is no way to check the integrity of the files.

As for the stage problem - it may have already been mentioned in this thread. However, I don't think the crashes are caused by it.

I also don't think that the problems are related to the resource.cfg file, but it is better to restore its contents. Below I have listed the contents of the resource.cfg file from MTS.
