Hmm, well, I actually replayed it quite recently, and I posted screenshots and recordings. The map sometimes crashed when loading saves during combat, but there were no problems loading after restarting. And my laptop, which has the game installed, might die at any moment.

On the forum, in one of the threads, someone posted an exe file that might consume more RAM. If it supports 3.1 functions, it should solve the crashing problem here and on any other maps. I tried it once, but I've reinstalled the game about 5 times since then.
I don't believe in these exe files from the time of XP; they were made when DDR2 memory was still used. There's no point in them when you already have a different memory architecture. I had a huge argument with a friend about this on a forum. So, I'll try a different version of the game. But crashes always happen on large and script-heavy maps (I've long since accepted this and don't consider it a problem), but the inability to load a save is a real issue... it makes the game unplayable. I'll let you know if it works on a different build/version of the game (of course, with a clean profile and without mods). Best regards.
P.S.
I've searched through a bunch of torrent trackers (all of them have more or less variations of builds from Hattab, with 3.1 integrated or not, and from Nival). Basically, I already have these builds on my PC. So, I took a more global and radical approach – I decided to download an old release from Booka (https://rutracker.org/forum//topic/5708374/). My Windows didn't even recognize the exe in the mounted disk, so I had to unpack the entire image into a folder and install it without emulation and NoDVD (it wasn't needed anyway). I configured everything, launched your campaign (Week of Festivities...now I'll see how the game behaves. There doesn't seem to be anything to complain about. New clean profile, default game installation path, 0 mods. And also... the system asked several times for permission to run the game in compatibility mode, but I refused for now. In the previous build, it set Vista 2 by default. I created the first save – it loaded from it so far.
P.P.S.
I opened the console – I don't see any errors (screenshot)
