Seems right about unofficial patch being 1.06, my bad. It looks odd though that your crashdump says cannot find patch_1_12.azp and also cannot find many items. maybe you're not getting one of the three media packs?
I've not actually tried BSM 1.8 yet but here's what I did for BSM 1.7:
1:Created a new folder named BSM.
2: Downloaded BSM 1.7, BSM 1.7 fix 1, media pack 1, media pack 2 and media pack 3, and unofficial patch 1.06 to this new folder.
3: Made a copy of my Gamersgate7.62 vanilla install, as I couldn't install it twice, and renamed that 7.62BSM.
4: Checked to see my copy worked by starting the 7.62BSM named game.
5: Applied unofficial patch 1.06 to 7.62BSM and checked to see it worked.
6: Followed the other install instructions applying BSM 1.7 then BSM 1.7 fix 1, then media packs 1 through 3 (media packs may have unzipped all at once I'm hazy on memory of that.
7: Went though and changed to readonly every single one in all three resolutions of those files you have to change to read only. Not just the folders either, every single tga. Just to be sure.
Note somewhere along this process I also hit the mscvr.117 issue and had to troll through this thread for a link to that and apply it.
After going through all that it mostly works, which is to say it works better than vanilla 7.62 ever did (Thankyou R@S)but still has issues.
I'm enjoying BSM1.7 so much and had to do so much work to get it up and running I'm a tad shy at trying 1.8.
