Mission Sitrep constantly crashing

Hey guys,

First of all, amazing game. I'm really surprised and pleased with how good a game you guys have made as an independent group. You captured the WC universe extremely well and made a fun game to play.

However, I've run into a slight problem recently. The game ran smoothly until I got into the second half of the game. Now, every time I watch the mission briefings, it crashes. On every briefing, every time. I have to skip them all to keep from crashing. This did not happen AT ALL during the first half of the game. I was hoping the patch might fix it, and patched, but it's still happening constantly. Any help would be appreciated.
