Yes, I can help you there.
The simplified Scene would not crash anymore :(,
but if I include the Object in a whole Scene it would crash faster (after
0:40 min instead 2:12 min on my machine):

While making this Zip-archive I found another access violation while
cancelling the parsing (pressing Alt+G and using the Stop-button result in
an error) or using the #error-Stream...
Just change Line 27 in "#local AffenFell = off;" and try again, I
constructed an #error statement what causes this error.

yours,
