First time out of the vault

So I've got the BIS mapper, set up the file paths and everything, and decided to test the waters and make a small change to the beginning map, artemple.map
I placed a knife on the map somewhere where your character would be able to retrieve/use it. I saved the map, and started up my game. I made a new character and the knife was there! The problems began when I picked up the knife. I placed it into my active slot and closed my inventory. My character model had vanished, and my game crashed with an error a few seconds after. Attached is the error message.
Here is how my Fallout 2 install is set up:
I have a CD copy of FO2 USA 1.02 humongous install, and I extracted the master.dat folder to the base Fallout2 folder: not the data folder that was made inside of it.
I set the mapper config file as so
critter_dat=C:\Users\matlo\Desktop\fallout2mod\Fallout2\critter.dat
critter_patches=C:\Users\matlo\Desktop\fallout2mod\Fallout2\data
master_dat=C:\Users\matlo\Desktop\fallout2mod\Fallout2\master.dat
master_patches=C:\Users\matlo\Desktop\fallout2mod\Fallout2\data
The fallout2mod folder and subsequent files are just a copy of my base install so if I mess up I don't have to install it all over again and can just copy/paste.
Anybody else have the same issue?
