An old question needs an old answer...

Gents, I can´t remember what makes the game crash at 80% when loading. Help me please.

This crash is a result of terrains with many objects in it : planes, SAM, AAA, armed ships & vehicles . As a general rule, I first load a default terrain mission and after I finish it,  I never experience a crash again.

Somewhere here in CombatAce I found this, a while ago:

10%

20% particle systems

30%

40%

50%

60% terrain

70%

80% objects

90% player cockpit and avionics

I've never seen that before ..

Old third party ships missing a collision mesh that were called out by the terrain was a big cause once SF2NA came about

that's one i keep forgetting, too. sometimes it'll stick at loading around 80-90% is usually a terrain object or ground object it doesn't understand (or like).
