Hello.

The report file that you uploaded does not contain any arma3.mdmp files. If you go to %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Arma 3 are there any of those types of files? If so could you please archive (zip) all arma3.rpt, arma3.bidmp, and arma3.mdmp files and then attach them to the feedback tracker for the developers to take a look at?

Could you please try using the default memory allocator? -malloc=tbb4malloc_bi

If that doesn't solve the issue here is a reddit thread where a user was dealing with the similar issue
https://www.reddit.com/r/armadev/comments/3yg2i2/arma_3_unusual_exit_code_0x0000409c_status_stack/

Might be worth checking it out and giving it a shot

tl;dr version
Backup and clear %localappdata%\Arma 3\ and Documents\Arma 3
Reinstall the game completely

Could you describe the process of using the default memory allocator or link me to the proper steps? What do I do with -malloc=tbb4malloc_bi

"Could you describe the process of using the default memory allocator or link me to the proper steps? What do I do with -malloc=tbb4malloc_bi"

When you Launch the game in the Launcher go Parameters > All Parameters >Memory allocator - Confirm it and you should be able to choose from some options pick the Default one. It should have tbb4malloc_bi in it.

I restarted the mission rather than revert to save. It completed fine.
