Can't get BOTA 1.4 to work

First, my spec:
E6600 2.4 GHz, GTS 8800 640 MB, 2 GB 800 MHz RAM, Asus P5B Deluxe MB.
Windows XP SP2, latest nVidia drivers, windows hotpatch for dual core, SoundMax driver.

I install spring 0.74b3, connect to game server, making game with bot AI, on BOTA 1.4 (i love the original TA), game start, and when Commander should appear, bang, crash to desktop. Same with other AI (KAI, RAI...) It runs with other mods, although i did not test it hard. With Bota 1.5 open beta, Spring starts, then i got slowdowns when zoom in and zoom out on the map.

Please help, I am desperate!

BOTAs before V 1.5 are broken now due to a patch in spring.

Before, spring didn't check if the movement type requested is available or not.
Now, it does - and when it finds that the assigned movement type isn't available - BOOMCAEKZ.

The thing is, I played BOTA 1.4 on Spring 0.74b3 one month ago, on my old pc. Now, I can't get it work...

Well, it's pretty wierd considering that Quanto had a whole lot of crashing problems w/ BOTA 1.4 and so did others - untill he fixed the movement thing.

You can find the thread deep inside the mods section.

I suppose I can't help you any more :P.
