System Information
Windows 8.1 Pro N
ATI Radeon 3100 Graphics (OpenGL 3.3, DirectX 11)

Blender Version
Broken: 2.74
Whenever I try to import a .dae file, Blender stops responding then shuts down.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
{F171968}zStgBattleFieldStage.dae

I tried to import a .dae file (StgFinal00stage.dae) through the import section in the file button.
When I pressed import, Blender stopped responding and shut down.
I tried another .dae file (zStgBattleFieldStage.dae) and it still didn't import the file.
I opened Blender with the Command Prompt and I found some interesting output (posted here ).
The output said that it generated a .txt file named blender.crash.txt (which I posted here ).

Crash confirmed, Gaia, think this one is for you. :)

.dae file seems invalid, but should not crash anyway…

Yes, the commit will be included in Blender 2.75

i also have tested both files again and they import without crashing blender. However they both report errors on the console. One of the errors looks like a missing feature in the Opencollada libraries. In more detail the opencollada validator reports back:

  Schema validation error: Error: ERROR_TEXTDATA_PARSING_FAILED Element: minfilter, Line: 834, Column: 50, Additional: ¶

and blender can not do much more than reporting this. I took a brief look at the Collada specifications and actually there is no obvious error in the reported line. Also the reported error does not seem to be correct (there is no additional line break in the data). I will talk to the OpenCollada people to decide how we should handle this issue.

However both files can be imported by Blender.

I can not confirm that blender hangs during close. Maybe this happened to you because you have marked a line in the console? In that case the console only closes after the mark has been released (very annoying, but it looks like this is Windows behavior and not related to Blender)

As a sidenote: I wonder if the scaling in the collada files is correct. I found:

  <asset>
      <contributor>
          <authoring_tool>BrawlBox</authoring_tool>
      </contributor>
      <created>2013-11-26T00:40:30Z</created>
      <modified>2013-11-26T00:40:30Z</modified>
      <unit meter="0.01" name="centimeter" />
      <up_axis>Y_UP</up_axis>
  </asset>

It looks to me like the unit should be:

        <unit meter="1.0" name="meter" />

At least it makes more sense when looking at the geometry data.
