Random crashes (upgrade to 1.9.0-beta6.8)
Doomsday keeps crashing at random. Sometimes it happens after 5 mins. of play, other times it's after I've finished 2 or 3 levels. I get the usual "program has encountered an expected error" window and then I gotta shutdown Doomsdays with the task manager

Can you turn on verbose message logging* and then post the contents of doomsday.out** here in the forum next time it occurs.
* In the Doomsday Frontend, go to Settings > Developer options. There you will find "Verbose messages" - set it to Level 2
** doomsday.out is a plain text file which can be found in the runtime folder (same location as your config files).

Failing that the best I can suggest is that you try disabling various features such as music, sound etc and try to narrow down the possible causes.
Seems that the game crashes when I either shoot a rocket or when the rocket is just about to hit a monster, or a bunch of monsters....this is the 2nd time I remember the game crashing because of rockets
Also, I'm getting a "segmentation violation" if I load a save game from slot 2 to 6 from the title screen. I don't get it if I load a save while in-game
Have you noticed this crash occur when you have not loaded a saved game?

I intend to address it for the up coming 1.9.0-Beta6.10 release.
