After having given up on DH working for Win. 8 long ago, I decided on a whim that I would try again. It actually works now! But now I have an incredibly strange problem where every time I look at East Africa or South America, the game crashes. I fly around all over the map no problem. It just these two areas. Do any of you have any idea what it could be?

After Gamersgate finally resolved its little DL issue, I re-installed the game. The problem still occurs. I guess I forgot to mention that I have been forced to use this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYsjODkLfyc fix. My native is 1360X768 and so I chose 1350X730. Do you think that my resolution is causing the problem here?

Yes the resolution is the problem ! Try 1280x720 or 728 . Or try your native resolution
No monitor can support 1350x730 I think !

The fix I had to use to even get the game to not immediately crash to desktop requires I play in windowed mode. I also cannot have it take up my entire screen, thus I can't use my native. But, never-the-less, I tried 1280x720. It did not work. Every time I look at East Africa the game crashes. It also crashes when I look at South America.
