    I've tryed to play this game a few times and keep getting almost the same problem.

    I like to play on turn based because real time just runs so fast its just plain useless. However, most of the time during a fight it locks up and won't let me finish my turn. I have to use the menu to change it to real time then it just takes off again. I can play on fast turn based kind of ok though but I find that sometimes it just changes modes to real time on its own somehow. Has anyone else had problems such as these.

    I am running on windows XP Pro atm with a Gforce card

    AFAIK this is a common bug, atleast I encounter it once in a while.
    There is now real fix imo. When I encounter such bug I press SPACEBAR twice to enter realtime and switch back to turn based combat just like you did.

    I guess you have to live with it.

    Good luck

    It's not that troubling however. It doesn't happen too often, and when it does it's easy to realise and double space, I do it too. The only problem it would be when not knowing that space changes from turn based to real time and to turn based again, cos' it's much more handy than going to the options each time.
    Propably you just didn't know that, Sarla, and clicked it by accident sometimes.
    By the way, welcome to the forum. ;)
