Hello, fellow flying folk!
I'm also using MediaVPS 2014 with FS2_open 3.7.2 RC4 SSE, running at 1920x1080 32-bit with all settings set to high or equivalent. The previous version I used, 3.7.0 never crashed, but then again it couldn't run 2014 either. ;)
The game suddenly becomes jerky, usually when there's a lot of stuff going on, but not constantly jerky, just like a jerk every couple seconds (a very short freeze, then it lets go) and then it crashes to the desktop. The JAD mod crashed the same way.
My lawg file is attached. Thank you for looking and for being an awesome community that I'm happy to join. :)

It looks like your MV_RadarIcons.vp is corrupt. This is probably not related to your problem, given that it appears to be empty (and the VP is optional anyway):

Having the FS2 CD in the drive could cause some wierdness, but I'm also doubtful that it's related to your problem.

This is the last section of your log before it abruptly stops without recording an error; this debug message (which is prefaced with the comment "// this shouldn't happen too often") seems to indicate that a beam is trying to be fired at a target that doesn't exist. I'm not sure why this would be happening. Could you try a recent Nightly Build (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?board=173.0) in case this problem is related to a bug that may have already been fixed since RC4 was released?

Sorry it's taken so long for me to report back. Also, I find it hilarious that you can tell I have the actual FS2 CD in the drive. I decided that was too much hassle, did a system restore, and bought the GOG version. Still, it's nice to have the big pretty manual (still can't get custom pilot/squad graphics to work, like the manual says you can) and it's awesome that the GOG version includes a scan of it.
Anyways, I have a sort of Michigan J. Frog situation going on here with the crashes. Whenever I try to get it to crash so I can try and get another log, it won't.... but whenever I think the problem has fixed itself and try to play the game like normal, *shoryuken* and I'm crashed. :mad:
However, I am using the nightly from the 10th, so that didn't seem to be the solution, alas. I'll try to get another log file soon, and thanks again for trying to help. :)
If I have a question about Voice Recognition, should I start another thread? Also, is there a place to make suggestions or a request? I wanted to ask about possibly adding some new commands (these: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=37643.msg880793#msg880793) and maybe glide/reverse thrust, if possible

I had a crash just when the Maelstrom was firing up its beam cannon, so I tried to replicate it with the debug, but the game actually crashed before I could get that far. Here's the log. I'll try again tomorrow and see if I can get the beam error again. I'm using the newest NVidia drivers.
Thanks!

ASSERTION: "shipnum >= 0 && shipnum < MAX_SHIPS" at hudsquadmsg.cpp:763
...Bwuh. What exactly were you doing when that error occurred? Had you just selected an item in the communications menu? If so, which one?
-
I can't remember which command it was. I thought it would be funny to tell Alpha 4 to depart before he died, and I had one wingman left. Oh you know what? I think I called for a rearm. I'll pay closer attention next time. I might've also given an order to all ships, when I only had 1. I'm always telling them to do crazy crap. Maybe I called for a ship that wasn't there anymore...
You see, I'm trying to get my voice commands working well, and I pick the Maelstrom mission because it gives me an opportunity to tell them to target a subsystem. The irony is that I always die, or the game crashes, before I can get that far. I've beaten the mission before, but that's not really the point. :lol:
-
This crash I got just from doing All fighters > Form on my wing... at the beginning of the mission (but after the radio guy was done talking). No shenanigans. Thanks!
