Help with a problem in Shandalar

[Tunasteak]

Hello, I've just installed Shandalar from the 2010 Custom installer and seem to be hitting a problem. Whenever I start a duel with one of the mobs around the world, I'm unable to start the combat, I think the game doesn't freeze, since I still can move around the mouse, but I can't start the fight and stay stuck in the duelling interface. does anyone have any clues?

Hmm, I haven't heard of the new installer, perhaps you should try an older version and use DosBox if necessary?

I'm afraid the mouse still moving doesn't prove much, this is probably managed by a different thread / interrupts whilst the main program is crashed.

The installer he's talking about is perhaps the main component of this Shandalar forum, and the specific topic is at viewtopic.php?f=76&t=2349
