Cannot reproduce the crash, but I guess its because you have weird characters in your profile name

Sound: Error: File: c:\users\madam elizabeth\documents\arma 3 - other profiles\d%2e%20sagbag\mpmissions\season6\tempMissionSP.VR\test.ogg not found !!!

it most likely doesn't like that % stuff in there.

yes it was the % signs things, the crash report showed me what happened, without that I wouldn't have been able to find this, thanks.
