Probably Merc related ... do you have a savegame or PythonErr.log?
Another possibility is the music files that I added, maybe the game doens't recognize the codec or something and the game crashes when it tries to play the soundtrack (bogorodice devo).

Strange.
For me it the crash was somewhere between 1150-1200.
But was able to start the game with the portuguese (1139)
EDIT: crashed around 1180, during a crusade

Huh. Strange indeedDid you try my save?
Yes, but didn't get any crashes.
Ended turn up to 650, arabia spawned without any noticeable issues

When the game crashes do you get anything in the other logs, like "audio.log"?
AbsintheRed

I don't think there is a problem with the new sound files

The save doesn't crash for me either ... I don't know what is happening. It is still possible to be the new music.

Than again, maybe not. I will try Austria now.

Which one did you had before, 748 or 749. I uploaded 748 and had no issues with several English starts before that. I think 749 was a graphics update.
AbsintheRed

749 was mine
I only changed small things, so I'm not really sure where could I have made a mistake
The only bigger thing was that I started to mess up with the attitude/memory modifiers in the leaderheadinfos.xml, but I don't see any mistakes there either...

XML mistake would cause the game to not load. Unless it is graphics or C++ it shouldn't crash mid-game.

Then my best guess is that it's somehow related to the crusades
I experienced this a couple times right after a crusade was called
Maybe it's connected to Jeruselam being a minor nation?
All crashes were around the time the AI could have conquered Jerusalem
3Miro

Minor nations are almost exclusively in Python, PythonErr should have recorded something. I will do some more test runs to see if this happens for me.

I checked a few older revisions
The game crashes with 748
There is a crash around 600AD, but in some reloads/retries I was able to get through that
The other crash is around 1200AD, never got to the austrian start
Unfortunately I didn't find anything useful in the logs
But the new sounds definitely works fine (at least Simeon's diplomusic and the serbian chant), I'm sure of that
EDIT: revision 744 seems fine, I started 2 austrian games without any problems
I'm almost certain that there are no issues in the small updates of 745-747, so there is a good chance the bug is in revision 748
It's probably in the mercenaries.py changes there

Are you still working on that one? I tested it on the latest revision and if it works fine there, I declare the bug fixed and move on. Unless I have a consistent bug, there is little that can be done. Checking with old revisions is also a bad idea since we have old bugs that have been fixed. Last weekend (I don't remember which revision) I had a Merc bug that would constantly cause random infinite loops, but it has been fixed now.
When something is random like that, it is possible that the bug is due to broken linkage in the .dll file. When I test things, I sometimes have make partial rebuilds of the .dll 10 - 20 times, eventually this leads to broken linkage and I have to rebuild everything from scratch. I try to remember to do that right before I submit a revision, but it is possible that I forgot (and there is no way to check).
Test the file on the latest revision and unless you get a consistent bug there, move on.

Wasn't really working on it, only started a few testruns in the background while modding.
Anyway, I noticed your revision 752 since my last post, and saw that you commented out a few lines in mercenary.py and uploaded a new .dll
I still got a crash on my first 752 testrun :/
