When you get that glitch then, does Saving, exiting, re-starting and loading the save help? What boat were you driving at the time, and how much TC had you been using, because it can eventually lead to that also.
CapnScurvy had TC limited to 2048 for a while, with a recommendation to not exceed 1024x, but really, it is computer and situationally dependent. If you never run into a high-traffic area nor receive any radio messages, then 8096x does seem to be fine, but encounter anything at a high TC and that can introduce graphic and audio glitches also. Cause is unknown for certain, but our suspicions are on a game bandwidth issue versus your computer.
Amazingly, I have a WinXP32 machine here with 8gig of RAM, and used some of the Windows Boot.ini changes, and the game really does run better there than in Win10, and Win7 both. Not by much, because I cannot get as big of a memory assignment in XP as opposed to Win7/10, but the XP does have fewer system "interruptions" than expecially Win10, but also Win7. Another "trick" a person can try was suggested by mazzi a while back, and that was to use SH Validator and have it set the Registry Path to point to your SH4 game install. You can also try the "manual" technique of doing that, as documented in the "AddToWindowsPath.pdf" in the Support / HowTo folder of the FotRSU mod. That seems to help Windows "find" the game after it goes off wandering about your computer's internals, gathering data on this that and the other...
