Everytime I load a map SFM crashes, I delete the files and Re-acquire them but for some reason it always crashes. If you know what to do please tell me.
write con_logfile error.txt into console before loading.
That will create a logfile of the console in the project directory by the name error.txt.
Open that with notepad or any other editor and check what the last entries are. That should give you an idea where the problem is. If the map is corrupt or SFM itself acting up.
What map is it?

Well, the first thing that jumps out is the lack of all the particles. Weird thing is that you did not get a warning or error before the shutdown. However, had the case myself that adding new particle files (.pcf) to the manifest caused weird crashes.
So first of all, have you tinkered around with the particle folders in either the tf folder or your mod folder?
Had the case that having a particle_manifest in my mod folder made SFM crash but copying the .pcf files to the tf/particles folder and adding them to particle_manifest there worked.
Also have you recompiled that map? As I have a different build for it after a fresh SFM reinstall.
Edit: Too many particles in a map or visible at the same time cause SFM to crash from time to time. That usually happens after switching to the Viewport from console.
In other cases some particles are not shown at all. I guess we are overstepping a particle count limit in the engine version used in SFM.
I have checked my particles folder and not all particles are in the manifest but one problem is it's going to be a hassle doing this.
