[jak3] Artifact Race 1 Talker spawn crash

[puzzlecube]

Description:
When you approach the bridge in the first artifact race, the game will usually but not always segfault when the talker is supposed to spawn and tell you how to jump. This appears this issue may also have very slightly different behavior if you pass -boot versus when you boot from a REPL but the end result is the same.

Steps to reproduce:
Start artifact-race-1 mission and collect 4 artifacts. if you get close enough to the bridge where the game is supposed to tell you how to jump, the game segfaults. I have had it once manage to show that message properly when I came at artifact 4 from the side and went deliberately around the bridge though.

Update:
This isn't specific to that bridge, it is just most common there. When it is going to crash the HUD seems to disappear roughly after the third artifact which pretty much guarantees it will crash before you finish. I just discovered it in the second artifact race as well after being able to successfully finish the first artifact race for the first time ever.
