Default Game Crashes When Loading "working" Saves?

Hello!

First I'd like to say hello and thank the community here for all they've done. The mods, help, etc. are fantastic!

Hopefully someone here will know what to do about this problem I'm having.

I've been playing the game without issues for several days. I opened it up one day, and all the save files for my career won't load. I get a "Silent Hunter IV has stopped working" error about 3/4 through the loading process on all saves; even ones that were working fine. Saves at port were working, so I made some fresh saves last night and checked that some of those were working. Today they are not loading; both the ones I checked and the ones I didn't.

Any idea why this is happening and if I can do anything about it? These fresh saves were working fine and now 'randomly' aren't. It's like the entire career except at port is corrupted. Why would files that worked fine just randomly not work? If I start and save other careers, they load fine...

Fixes I've tried:
Allowing SH4 to use more RAM.
Reinstalling the game and mods.
Deleting some saves.
Using fresh saves.
Saving away from 'action' (contacts, under water, etc.).

Config and Mods:
i7 4790k
EVGA GTX970
Asrock z97 Extreme4
OS on SSD, game on HDD.
Updated Windows 8.1

Generic Mod Enabler v2.6.0.157
Game Fixes Only Mod v1.1
New Orders Bar Menu
RSRDC_SH15_V400
RSRDC_V4XX_Patch1
GFO Patch for RSRDC
TDW_Ship_Plane_Fire_Damage_v1_3_SH4

Maybe relevant pieces of information in the 'debug' screen I get? (sadly I'm not entirely sure whats relevant or not):

Unhandled exception at 0x002548E3 (MessageNet.dll) in sh4.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x3EB0DF42.

Unhandled exception at 0x002F48D8 (MessageNet.dll) in sh4.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xFFFF8080.
