0Sorry about the lack of audio, didn't record it bc i was in a call at the time.
A corrupted .PCX file within the game's FastFile (given the format .CRS instead of .FF) causes a buffer overflow when the game tries to load it.
The game's error handling is pretty good at catching this before Windows does, but on older systems (especially those running Windows 95) it may cause a BSOD.
The corrupted PCX is the asset for the Powersuit's guns. The corruption is only in two bytes but it's enough to ruin the RLE. The final game has a good copy of the file and does not have this issue.
