I have a new crash, and now output_log is different.

Also, i found a lot of crash files in AppData\Local\Temp\Harebrained Schemes\BATTLETECH\Crashes.

DynamicHeapAllocator out of memory - Could not get memory for large allocation 1398144!
Could not allocate memory: System out of memory!
Your system has less than 8gb of system memory, which is the bare minimum to run the game at all.
Please:

- expand your Windows paging file maximum size to 32gb
- exit every other app you can before starting the game.

Good luck with that!

Memory: 8192MB RAM
Available OS Memory: 7984MB RAM
Regardless, you need to free up as much as possible before starting the game.
