Yesterday I tested Albion on the latest "official" CVS and found that the game stalls massively when a text dialog is opened, when you talk to people. Stalls of up to 2 seconds. Running around in 2D or 3D has no effect, only with the text dialog is the problem.

I also noticed that the problem only occurs when I set cycles to auto, setting a constant number of cycles has no problem at all.

The used config file is attached.

As there was no problem with 0.65, I started backtracking the problem. I've found the problem started with the CVS of 13-01-2007. The CVS of 12-01-2007 works as good as the 0.65 version.

System :
Win2k SP4
ATI mobile
1GHz
384 MB Ram

Other games work good and better as aspected.

io delay probably.
I'll commit an improvement for that today.

Could be an IO problem, I was thinking a timer issue, as the stall happens every 5 seconds (When a dialog is open) and disabling the auto control solves the problem.

I tried the 04-02-2007 version and you where right QBix, the IODelay was the problem.

Problem Fixed.
