So this is the third time in three playthroughs of BG1 I've had a corrupted area file (other than Beregost) that resulted in a CTD. Funny thing is, it's been a different area each time.

1. EasyTutu v5: 5th floor of Iron Throne
-no mods
2. EasyTutu v6: 4th level of Nashkel Mines
-my WS mod, G3 tweakpack
3. BGT v1.06: Inside of Firewine Bridge
-G3 fixpack before BGT, my WS mod, RTT kitpack, Divine remix, Saerileth, G3 tweakpack

In each case I did a clean install of EVERYTHING and I still get this problem. I have no idea why this happens or why the area is different each time. I'm wondering if there is a way to modify the Beregost crash fixer (that works great for Beregost crashes) to work with all BG1 areas.

There might be if there is a specific pattern to the corruption.
So you are saying that you have three games where the saved game become corrupted, preventing you from entering an area that you've already visited? Have you tried playing around with background programs to see if they are interfering with memory processes? Otherwise, if you have all three saves, you could attach them all here and I can take a look.

Actually, the areas that became corrupted were areas I haven't visited before. In the case of background programs, I already disable as many of those as possible. I only have the BGT save which I've attached below (both auto and quick saves). The first Easytutu save I managed to fix by reinstalling tutu. The second is long gone after I removed Tutu from my system.

Well I just checked these saved games and Firewine Bridge (AR3401) loads without fault. I am not sure whether it is actually a corrupted area file that is your problem. Maybe a graphics issue?
