how do you fix a game freeze? level checking say's ok. all triggers ect are correct. right before i get to the first worm generator i opened the door and it froze.

it's not frozen like i first thought atleast not completely it has major lag. i'm checking my save game but monsters seem fine(not alot), i'm not sure what is going on. anyone have an idea? i really hope i can keep the dragon but if that is the problem so be it i'll figure out something else.some tips for "grandmaster" HIGHLY RECOMENDED pumping up all your levels before going down to level 4. more then once have i had to run upstairs and heal before going down again. that and gaining like 8 levels(among 4 characters and class's) before worms... = or <> vi is recomended. oddly havn't attempted any fireball spells yet. i tihnk the dragon will push the characters to expert in fighter and ninja, maybe even wizard and priest.

Freezes come from a number of places

- hexing tiles so that you don't have/do have +10 on the tile type when there is/isn't an object
- cloning tiles then deleting one set, so that there is a single object on another tile somewhere else that doesn't actually exist
- an object being cloned accidentally


The only lagging freeze I've bothered to stay around for is when a party is under-weight (so it has wrapped round into the red). This can be caused by editing a character's inventory in DMute, because it doesn't adjust the character weight

These sorts of crashes though are normally from hex editing and intentional/unintentional cloning, not from adding monsters, etc though, so your dungeon should still be sound as long as you can lock onto the problem object : )

thanks, i never alted the characters in dmute(remeber trying to play the game completely wihtout cheating to see if i need to alter it more) not sure what happened. i tihnk the save game was corupted anyway's i deleted the save game, and pretty much heavy character editing so i can pretty much skip down to the worm level. problem seems to be fixed. right now testing the dragon i put into level 4. thanks for your help
