For a while I was encountering random crashing in this game. I searched around this forum and while I could find plenty of people that had the same issue, I could never find a definitive solution for it.
Turns out the issue is related to the widescreen mod and there was a source update back in 2013 that fixed this issue. Many people seem to not know about it due to it never getting released on the main site that GOG links to in the MOD Spotlight article.
UPDATE: It looks like a new version of the installer came out (3.0.6)

No need for the bottom info I guess.
Here it is.

Download the archive as a zip.
Once that is done, follow these instructions, taken from this post on shsforums

copy the widescreen folder to your Toment folder
(not the widescreen-master folder)
so to pick a file at random...
widescreen-master.zip\widescreen-master\widescreen\core.tpa
would become something like:
C:\games\torment\widescreen\core.tpa.
get a copy of weidu.exe http://www.weidu.org/main.html#weidu
place weidu.exe in your torment folder
rename weidu.exe to setup-widescreen.exe
run setup-widescreen.exe
There seems to be problems moving saved games from old version of the widescreen to the new...
Make sure you have a backup of any saved games
Figured a thread here on GOG outlining this would prove useful to some, because I know it would have been useful for me a while back.
