March 26, 201510 yr During chargen every time a new portrait is loaded the game freezes for ~15 seconds. Accessing the main character inventory or changing his gear causes another freeze of ~5 seconds All voiceovers are delayed for ~5 seconds. Extremely annoying. This problems seem to be quite common. Other than that the game works flawlessly, even when the game hangs up the music stills sounds and the cursor works, you just can't interact with anything and the graphics are stuck.
March 26, 201510 yr I have the same issue. All voices are delayed and every time an avatar is loaded the game freezes for ages. I'm using the steam version, if that can have anything to do with anything.
March 26, 201510 yr Yeah, I also have this exact problem - although I haven't gotten to combat yet, everything else is working fine except for those exact three issues. I also noted it's just the game freezing - I can tab out and browse Firefox or even tab over to WoW (I tried) without any slow-down or issues with my computer performance. Since I can also run seemingly more resource-intensive games fine I figure it's not my PC that's an issue. E: Running Steam version.

March 26, 201510 yr Just posting to say I have the exact same problem. Tired a full reinstall, reboot, deleting all the portrait pictures, different races, classes, sex. Win7 64bit i5-4670 3.40GHz 8gig RAM GTX 770 The output log is me creating a new character, changing the portrait picture (slowly) a couple times, then loading into the game and opening my inventory (again, slowly) a few times.

March 26, 201510 yr I got the EXACT same problem as you guys, My version is GOGs. My OS is Windows 7 64bit My CPU is i7 740QM, 1.73ghz VGA NVIDIA Geforce GTX 460m VRAM 1,50gb Memory is 6GB. (I think its useful for you to edit and put your system specs to make easier for the staff to identify the problem.)
March 26, 201510 yr Also having these exact three issues. Everything else works like a charm but these problems happen so often that it just becomes way too annoying to deal with. I run more graphics heavy games on this computer all the time without any sort of issue so I know it can't be that. I really hope there's a fix to these problems soon. My system specs are: GeForce GTX 770 Intel Core i5-4570 CPU @3.20 GHz 12gb RAM Windows 7 Steam Edited March 26, 201510 yr by Bigbadmojo
March 26, 201510 yr I'm having the same issue, and apparently the game caps the RAM usage at 1GB. Does that happen for others as well? That would explain the problem, because then the game would have to get the game files from the hard drive instead, which is a lot slower than the RAM.
March 26, 201510 yr Same issue here with me guys, every time I open Inventory or move items around too, as well as the voice over delay. Specs below. CPU is II X6 1100T Processor ~3.3GHzNVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 Windows 7 16.0GB RAM
March 26, 201510 yr Same Problem here with Char creation and open inventory Win7 X64 GTX680 16gb Ram I7-3770K
March 26, 201510 yr Hi guys, just taking a random stab here, but are you running the latest NVIDIA drivers perchance? OBSIDIAN ORDER OF ETERNITY - Officially sponsored most generously by Pierre and SD!
March 26, 201510 yr Hi guys, just taking a random stab here, but are you running the latest NVIDIA drivers perchance? Yeah I just updated my drivers the other day to 347.88. Edited March 26, 201510 yr by Bigbadmojo
March 26, 201510 yr Hi guys, just taking a random stab here, but are you running the latest NVIDIA drivers perchance? I had the issue with latest drivers (347.88), and the problem still occured when I rolled back to 347.52
March 26, 201510 yr Hi guys, just taking a random stab here, but are you running the latest NVIDIA drivers perchance? Funnily enough I actually updated all my drivers yesterday (was hoping to wrangle Dark Souls into playing nice even though I knew its PC issues are game-related and not my machine), so they certainly should be.
March 26, 201510 yr Same problem. System info: Intel i7-2630QM @ 2 Ghz Nvidia GTX 560M 8 Gigs of RAM Windows 7 Ultimate x64 Graphics driver version: 347.88 Hope any of this helps and looking forward to the issue being fixed so I can enjoy what seems to be an otherwise excellent game.
March 26, 201510 yr Author GTX 970 user here. The problems persist with both 347.52 and 347.88 (lastest). And the issue seems to be an old one: http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/70629-435-freeze-on-interaction-with-character-creator/ I did try the first couple of BB and this didn't happen so it's something that was added after that.
March 26, 201510 yr I just made an account to say that I am have exactly the same issues Windows 7 64biti5 2500kp8p67 LEamd r9200 series (forget what exactly) 8gb ram I've tried everything I can think of, I was there when it went live on Steam hoping to play it and have spent hours trying to fix it but this problem is too jarring for me to play it, I want to experience it fully and am just praying for suggestions, a work around or a solution at this point. D:
March 26, 201510 yr I believe that the problem is with the portraits. Anyone tried to creat a character with a customized portrait to see if the problem persists? I didnt tried yet (i dont know how this works, but I think it worth trying)
March 26, 201510 yr interesting is the inventory frezze only happen when i select my Charakter when i open the Inventory with the other charakter from start it woerks .
March 26, 201510 yr Hi ! Same issue exactly System : Windows 7 64 bit NVidia GTX 670M 16go Ram i7 3610Qm And to answer to Darren I'm personally running the latest NVIDIA drivers. But I think I saw someone on the Steam's forum who had the same problem with a Radeon, I'm not sure though (You can see the people who spoke about it in the post "Early Bugs". See here : http://steamcommunity.com/app/291650/discussions/0/618457398960884005/
March 26, 201510 yr I'm going to break the Intel/Nvidia party. I've got the same problem, but I'm on an AMD setup. Avatars load really slowly, inventory screen takes a while to load and sound is delayed. My RAM usage also seems to be capped at 1GB. My specs are as follows: FX-6300 3.5GHz 16GB Ram Radeon R9 270 Other than that the game runs perfectly fine and I have not encountered any crashes.
March 26, 201510 yr Anyone found a workaround for this at all? Really want to play this but it's difficult with this issue.
