You use the minidump files that Steam automatically generates when your mod crash, copy them into your mod's bin directory, and make sure the automatically generated (by the compiler) .pdb files are present there too, then you open the .mdmp file in Visual Studio and press F5 and the crash will be recreated. You can also run the game in debug mode with a debugger enabled. For more information on the first solution see http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Using_mdmp_files
