I figured it out. I turned off s_doppler and I no longer crash (or at least havent yet with a shitload of playing on the CROM servers).

What does s_doppler do Canis, and do you just set it to 0 in the config file?

you can do it in the config file, or do it in the console with "\s_doppler 0".

It adds an effect to the sounds of projectiles as they fly by your character in the game. It can be cool, but doesnt really do much and they didnt perfect it in the mac version, so its riddled with bugs and when you get hit with the rocket launcher or plasma gun it crashes the game. Before turning it off I would crash quite often, sometimes several times per game. Since turning it off I havent crashed once.
