Frequente freezes and crashes

Anybody has any idea to fix it? Setting core affinity to 1 didnt work

Not sure what is causing it. Game would run fine for hours and now I can barely play 10 minutes? I'll just do a full reinstall to the c drive and see if that does anything.

I've been running on three theories so far: 1) It is dependent on run time for in-map gameplay on a same session. Since for me it never happened until quite late when missions get much longer. It would also explain why even if I kept saving it would crash at more or less 10 min after the load, each time.
2)Compatibility issues as with all the Blitz1 engine games. Setting compat mode to Xp2, using core 1 affinity etc, sometimes it won't work even so, and you have to use win7 or a 32 bit machine.
3)Steam shortcut, although i'd not be sure why, sometimes I got less crashes when running the game from the folders shortcut.

I could only finish the game by using 2 machines, one with win7 (my desktop) and my win10 laptop, that is much newer (8yrs vs 4). When a mission would start crashing too much, i would switch machines

If BK1 or Stalingrad are working properly, try the following:

Check all the xml files in the "Weapons" folder
Fix all the files to "RevealRadius="0""
The relevant files are about 6 in total
ex)Flak_102.xml

There are a lot of wrong and bugs in this game. But fortunately you can fix them by yourself relatively easily.
Now it is one of my most favorite RTS ^^
