Author Topic: Game freezing when it gains window focus  (Read 492 times)

Hello help.

I've searched under "alt tab" and "windowed" but have had no luck.
I run Blockland in windowed mode so that I can view my IM apps and browse the web randomly. I have no trouble doing these things whilst Blockland is running in the background (and it does so smoothly). When Blockland regains focus (by clicking inside the window or on the title bar), everything freezes for a good 20 seconds. In v8, there used to me a message about deallocated Input when Blockland lost focus and allocating Input (keyboard, mouse and joystick I think) when it gained focus. v9 does not give me such a message.

I have a p4 2.8ghz, 2gb of ram and an x800xt video card with 256mb ram.
I am running windows XP. The graphics drivers are a little old but the new ones cause issues with some games.

1. Does anyone else have this issue? I want to find out if I am not the only one.
2. Is there a way to fix this? Do I have to change some settings or such.
3. Is this working as intended? I wonder if it is a bug that I could report and hopefully one day have fixed.

Thanks in advance for any insightful/helpful responses.

8 reads and no response. Am I to assume that everyone runs in full screen mode and just focuses on the game?

No i just didn't look

O damn no edit button, lol.

Whats wrong with 20 seconds freezing? :P
Have you thought that your video cards 256mb memory sucks? :3
