I'm also having freezing problems with an sp level I'm working on. It only happens in one room on the level and it just started happening. The only thing I changed before it started to occur was to place some multi celled mats of computer screens elsewhere in the level. That's the only thing I changed and now, all of the sudden, if I try to fire any weapon, minus the lightsaber, the level freezes. I've found a way to exit back to windows without having to reboot so I'm assuming JK is having the problem since it's not locking up my entire computer. In this room, I have a platform which has a .cog attached to it which makes it cycle through 7 frames of movement when a switch is pressed. the platform is a small, octagonal door 3do. I've removed all of the other thing 3do's from this room and even tried getting rid of those multi-celled mats. Still, whenever I fire a weapon, it freezes. I can walk all throughout this room, through it and back into it. I can jump around and use my lightsaber. What could possibly be causeing this crash? And especially all of the sudden since the level used to work just fine with lots of enemies and things in it. I'm running JK on a P166 32. If anyone could possibly run down the possibilities for this happening or even give me a lot of the reasons why JK levels freeze up, I'd really appreciate it. thanks. -matt
