Just wanted to give this a bump because its SUCH a good idea to not mess with the default files, and to always make a MOD to test things with instead of changing the default game.

I spent HOURS playing 5 games in a row yesterday, most of which kept crashing. The only changes I made were to make the large galaxy 200 - 250 systems instead of 50 - 100. Seems like a simple change, but if I had just edited the core files, I may never have figured out what the problem is. When I stopped using the mod, the problems went away...
Did you increase the number of system names? It was noted in another thread that there are only 100-some system names in the stock game.
