FF7 Random Crashes at Northern Crater

[makosipper]

Well, that's pretty much it. It crashes in a total random fashion, but always when changing screens. Just for the record, right now the party split up and I'm backtracking to get double items. I managed to do two paths, but the crashes only started after I backtracked and took the second path. I'm not sure if it's related, but it's worth mentioning. I don't know if it makes a difference, but I saved on the screen before where the path splits for the first time. This only happened at this point of the game, btw.

Here's the app.log, if you need it (it's quite long):

Thanks for reading!

EDIT: I forgot to mention I'm using the 2.5.1 Remix

EDIT 2: Maybe I solved it after re-installing, this time with full install. I was having some other problems with Malboros, too (game didn't crash, but seemed to have fail to load one of its attacks, putting me on "wait" forever). Bad thing is I can only be 100% sure in case I haven't solved it, since these glitches didn't happen every time.

I just wanted to say how awesome I think it is that you managed to solve your own problem without begging for help.  It's a rare thing to see nowadays.
