Summary0000325: Game keeps crashing during mission when using -loadonlyused cmdline option
DescriptionThe game invariably crashes in the following missions:

a) In the default FS2 campaign, on the first mission where you fight the Shivans. I think it's happening right when a new Shivan ship jumps in.

b) In the Derelicts campaign, on the mission where you are following a fighter in a Nebula.

c) In the Homesick campaign, on the second mission, a few seconds after the pirate ambush starts.
Additional InformationComputer specs are Pentium IV 2.8 Ghz w/HT, NVidia Geforce 5200 Ultra, 1 gig of DDR RAM, running WinXP pro, latest updates.

Don't use -loadonlyused with 3.6.5 since it wasn't working properly (now it does though). It can cause crashes when ships warp in or weapons get used which were never loaded. Not sure if that's the only problem here so try not using it and see if you still get the crashes.

Was going to close this one but since it's actually a bug that's been fixed I'll resolve it and refer to it on the next report of a similar problem.

Fixered.

Oops, should have looked first. Already a resolved bug filed. Closing instead as a duplicate of bug 0000244
