I am afraid the only people who could solve this would be SCS, I have no idea why it is not working for you and secondly what is supposedly changed in ProMods that causes it.

Why do you need -force_mods in the first place? It loads fine without

SCS has nothing to do with the crash, there is a corrupt file(s) somewhere in PM. This corrupt file is being forced into use by using -force_mods, the file is not being used without -forcemods, the default file will used instead, i dont know any other way to explain.
If SCS ever take away the use of -force_mods so that every file in any mod will be used then PM will not work for anyone. Afaik SCS has already began doing this, there are now some sounds that can be changed without the use of -force_mods, might be a good idea to find the problem in case they do it sooner than later.

Some sounds need it or the defaults are loaded, all sounds in sound/ui for example, i have 20 of those removed by using empty .ogg files & 2 others have been changed because they drive me nutty. The whole deskptop interface has been adjusted, defaults are loaded without -force_mods. Also ui/template/text.sii needs it or the game will use default, i have made font adjustments in there because my eyes are not too good.
PM is an excellent map & i do love it but my changes/edits/adjustments are needed most.

I understand the predicament however with an errorless crash we can't fix it either. We typically need to contact SCS with a game.crash.txt and then they can debug it for us
