Game crashes during videos
Install the latest version of QuickTime. Do not use the version included with the game. Apple Quicktime 7.7.9 (current available version as of 13/5/17) does not work. Game insists installation of version on disc is required. Quicktime 6 still works.
Game crashes when moving at certain points
The game may crash when the graphics settings are turned up at certain points in the game. Change graphics settings to "Best Performance" to stop this.
