Hi Mark
I have the same problem when loading a lot of objects with a big
amount of geometry. To force the loader to crash you can use simple.c
and add an unlimited loop around the "LoadFile" call. Use esprit.flt
for example.
The workaround LoadFltMode(PFFLT_COMBINELODS,FALSE), which was
suggested by Mike Weiblein is working; the limit is higher now.
