Quake 4 single player crash

Quake 4 is an old(er) game but I never completed the single player campaign due to a system crash at the time.
I've restarted playing the game but now I run into the following error:
rvClientmoveable “-1”: cannot load collision model

The error happens in the SP map “Tram Hub Station” (a map at about 2/3rd of the game) and the game crashes back to main menu, with the console opened full screen stating the error. Loading the last savegame or the last saved checkpoint eventually leads to the same error, in the same area.

I’ve tried googling for it but there isn’t a lot to find. Trying to contact id links me to the support section of Bethesda, I’ve emailed them with this question but haven’t heard back from them at all. Emailed Raven and they told me they forwarded my question to one of the programmers, but haven't heard anything since.

If possible, could anyone help me solve this? Not sure it's a LD or programming issue but I thought I'd start in this section.

The game is patched to 1.4.2.
Is it best to reinstall the game, without patching up? I’m not sure my savegames will work when I roll back from 1.4.2 to 1.0.0?

I know, don't think that's gonna cut it... I'll give it a try but mods don't like double posts :(
