Warhead settings caused game's crash

There are bug that causese ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE problem. There are something with warhead settings. After i changed them, game started to crash after civilian buildings suffered damage from weapon, with these warhead.
Here dreadnought missile warhead. I only changed "verses" and some things like "sparky" and "rocket". But i found that only new "verses" causeses games crash after i attacked civilian buildings with it.
I am using Ares patch.
Similiar problems with other weapons.

Old code:

Code:

[DMISLWH]
CellSpread=1.5
PercentAtMax=.25
Wall=yes
Wood=yes
Verses=100%,90%,80%,100%,80%,80%,85%,65%,28%,80%,0%
Conventional=yes
Rocker=no
InfDeath=2
AnimList=XGRYSML1,XGRYSML2,EXPLOSML,XGRYMED1,XGRYMED2,EXPLOMED,EXPLOLRG,TWLT070
Deform=10%
DeformThreshhold=300
Tiberium=yes
Sparky=no
Bright=yes
ProneDamage=70% ; Presumes air burst

New one, that causes crash:

Code:

[DMISLWH]
CellSpread=1.5
PercentAtMax=.25
Wall=yes
Wood=yes
Verses=100%,90%,80%,100%,80%,80%,85%,70%,50%,80%,80%
Conventional=yes
Rocker=yes
InfDeath=2
AnimList=XGRYSML1,XGRYSML2,EXPLOSML,XGRYMED1,XGRYMED2,EXPLOMED,EXPLOLRG,TWLT070
Deform=10%
DeformThreshhold=300
Tiberium=yes
Sparky=yes
Bright=yes
ProneDamage=70% ; Presumes air burst

I do not understand, what wrong here and why it can cause a crash.

Sparky=yes causes crash if you don't have some animations defined in General.

On that note, if you get a crash you should upload the except.txt from that crash or at the very least the EIP of that crash.

Thanks!
Looks like i found solution.
OnFire anims is defined by me. But developers put this "OnFire" not in [audiovisual] section and that caused an issue.
I think, if there are any other bugs by default, i need to find all fixes or already fixed rulesmd.ini file.
