Seems it was not the other overlay program i used to record allegiance that made Alleg crash.

The new mumble client itself has a bug.
1) download new current mumble.. 1.2.3 or 1.2.3a
2) configure > settings > overlay > enable overlay, other settings didnt matter there
3) launch alleg, and alleg just crashed. No matter if i had any other overlay or record program closed or opened.

For me the widely suggested argument fix -nod3d9ex did not work.
http://mumble.sourceforge.net/Overlay

Downgrading worked.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mumble/files/Mumble/
I took 1.2.2, it has less options in overlay settings, but it has not crashed alleg so far.
And my other overlay program works simultanously.
Googling this issue is pointless, most people say mumble brakes this or your other overlay brakes that.

PS: for newer games.. x64 or directx11, mumble might have no overlay..
this however is not the case for allegiance..

I had to go into mumble and WHITELIST allegiance 1.2/production/allegiance.exe to allow mumble overlay to work, I am on win7 64 bit

I also had Allegiance installed on G: instead of C:

Now I reinstalled allegiance to C:, and mumble to C: and that may have done something for me

So i still got crashes, but inside game.
Without mumble Overlay everything is more stable.
I can't really disable the Other overlay.. it gives me GPU and CPU temperatures.

Mumble overlay crashes MWO as well. It is quite annoying that it is enabled by default.

Sometimes it helps to run mumble as administrator, if the game also requires to run with higher rights.

The history of open-source Allegiance is paved with the bodies of dead code branches, forum flame wars, and personal vendettas. But a community remains because people still love the game.
