I have been using the Animal Freeze Function without the game crashing.
Started by using the Save Game which is offered here and went from there.
I use Fast Walk and Animal Freeze all the time.
The only bug i have noticed so far is that sometimes when i try to look through the scope i end up looking through the rifle tube, but i think that is a game bug and has nothing to do with the trainer because usually after a game reboot it's fine again

@Tokolosh can you fire any weapon at a Frozed animal without the game crashing? Or are you using the Rifle you started with? My problem comes from using weapon other than the one you start with. Can you verify this.
Yes i can use any weapon, even though i mainly use the bow
What I did is load the save game given here on CH (did I mention I freaking LOVE CH?). Now the weapons work even WITH freeze animals activated. So yes, it's most assuredly because I used Freeze Animals after cheating to get a weapon I did not start the game with.
WIth the new save loaded , any weapons work fine with freeze animals activated or de-activated.
So: THANK you Cheat Happens for providing the saved game, thanks to the person who provided the saved game, and thanks again CH for a great trainer, and for keeping your trainers always up to date.
I know I sound obseqious and fawning here; I cant help myself.
A guy who works in television as many hours a day as I do sometimes wants to "cheat" at some of his games with what little time he has to PLAY them!
So...please dont change the trainer.

The thing is I don't want to use someone else Save Game because I like to do the missions myself. So I was wondering is there a way to fix this without using another person's saved game. And what did I do wrong for this problem to happen? I got all my weapons without using the Any Weapons XP cheat to get them. I just don't understand why using another weapon is cause the game to crash with you own save game and getting the weapons legit.
apparently the only way is to maybe cheat the xp and then earn the weapons and buy them normally rather than using the cheat to do it.
The game is constantly being updated and has broken code and we are making it do things that were never intended or forseen by the developers, so likely the weapons are crashing the game because the developer didn't forsee someone forcing them for use and without some sort of call to set up something that might be missing.
in short, you would have to use the XP cheats and then go kill something with a fresh start to the game, and NOT use the unlock weapons options.

Thanks for the response Cal.
I just tested again the newest trainer and the newest Steam version of COTW which has not been steam-updated since the march 5 trainer came out on CH.
Trainer works fine, every function. Game runs fine. Here's exactly what's happening.
The gun I am using is NOT the gun I started my game with (I'm not sure what happened to that rifle, but I dont seem to have it anymore (the U.I. of this game is VEEEERY clunky).
No matter what weapon I use: shotgun, rifle, or bow/arrow, every time I shoot at an animal frozen (or, in most cases, running in place)the game crashes. This time the error message appeared and I was able to use the CH box in the message to send the error report to CH (or something like that).
But, if I have Page Down activated, if I am NOT shooting an animal in my sights, the same weapon when fired does NOT crash the game. ONLY when shooting at an animal in my sights, right in front of me or at a short distance.
In other words
Trainer running,Freeze animals NOT activated, I can shoot any weapon at any animal and game does NOT crash.
Trainer running, Freeze animals ACTIVATED, I can fire any weapon in the air (as long as its not firing at a close-by animal) and the game does NOT crash.
Trainer running, Freeze animals ACTIVATED, any weapon I fire at a close-by animal and game DOES crash.
Trainer running, Freeze animals ACTIVATED. Animal running in place. I set my sights but do NOT fire. Then I DE-ACTIVATE freeze animals and fire weapon at animal running away. Game does NOT crash.
I REALLY LIKE freeze animal option. I hope it can stay.
I'm thinking, as someone posted earlier, that this is coming about only because I used the trainer to update my game status. Dang it.
It's only when firing at an animal close-up and if they're frozen in place does the game crash.
I agree @robedits, everything you just stated that happened to you in game also happened to me. I also tested this option a lot. I am not sure what the problem is but I also like the Freeze Animal Option and would hate to see it go. It is a great substitute for an Stealth Option. And since we don't have an Stealth Option this is the next best thing. Hopefully this can be fixed without getting ride of the option.
I can also confirm the above anomalies with the Freeze animal/shoot/crash scenarios.
The freeze animals is a valuable addition of the trainer --- we should really keep it.
The gun "unlock" feature does not allow me to buy the guns ( unlock them) even after I have leveled up with a lot of XP that I added with the trainer.
