Do you remember what version did you have before?
According to the crash report, something is wrong with one of the installed packages, but that code didn't change for a long time. Try first to rename the packages folder in your data dir (C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/) and load it that way to see if it helps.

There are also several errors in the packages, probably from old imports:

ERROR: Cannot find geometry "ship" in package "C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/packages/jmhall2999/alien interceptor flying/alien interceptor flying.pkg"!
ERROR: Cannot find geometry "Stat" in package "C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/packages/jmhall2999/MONUMENTO_CRISTO/MONUMENTO_CRISTO.pkg"!
ERROR: Texture file "Stone_Granite_BluePearlnoCulling.dds" doesn't exists!
ERROR: Texture file "Stone_Marble_VermontDanbynoCulling.dds" doesn't exists!
ERROR: Texture file "Concrete_Aggregate_SmallnoCulling.dds" doesn't exists!
ERROR: Texture file "Metal_Aluminum_AnodizednoCulling.dds" doesn't exists!

It still gives me the error even after I re-installed the game and renamed the packages folder!

I thought you would like to know that my outerra dir is not c:/Users/Justin/Outerra, it's c:/Users/Justin/Outerra/Anteworld. Is that normal?

It still states:

ERROR: Cannot find geometry "ship" in package "C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/packages/jmhall2999/alien interceptor flying/alien interceptor flying.pkg"!
ERROR: Cannot find geometry "Stat" in package "C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/packages/jmhall2999/MONUMENTO_CRISTO/MONUMENTO_CRISTO.pkg"!

Did you rename the packages folder in C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/?

eng.log says your data directory is C:\Users\Justin\Outerra\

Thank you, I found the actual dir of my game, they were installed in two differant places, renamed packages fold, all is going well thank you :)

Also, can I delete packages so it will regenerate a clean one?

Packages aren't regenerated, they contain your installed mods or imported stuff. The errors usually refer to old objdef files from previous imports, that no longer work with the new geometry pkg.

I think the packages you installed from someone else are ok, but your own imports may have some corrupted data. First move away just your packages (in C:/Users/Justin/Outerra/packages/jmhall2999/) and leave other there and test if it's ok.
