Kharkov outskirts CTD

Hello all,
whenever I try to play Kharkov Outskirts, it crashes to desktop about halfway through the loading procedure. Every other map works great. I'm guessing I have a corrupt file or something... Is there any way to fix this without downloading the whole lot again? Can I revert back to 0.65 and try downloading the 0.67 patch again?

thanks for any help,
Lampoc

Well, whenever I get a ctd to desktop I usually hammer my keyboard, do some serious swearing, then in a strange emotion of relief, I sit back in my chair and come to the conclusion that, seeing as a computer will always, be eternally ignorant and uncomplying no matter how stubborn you are in keeping up doing the same process, over and over. So you have to consider the fact that you can't win from any computer, ever, in a game of stubborness.

But anyway, to cut to the chase here, by coincidence, I joined a server too which ran the same map, and yes, ctd. I figured, the server must have not yet upgraded yet with the hotfix, but now it becomes a bit suspicious. So we can really only hope that is the one problem.

Well - it should. If not - reinstallation of 0.65 and 0.67 afterwards powered by 0.67a at the latest can be the trick.

Kharkov should work fine in Conquest.

And the reason why only a few maps crashed maybe could be that only a few maps have been altered with the hotfix.
