Just to point out that now spring multithread make the game freeze at some point.

I disable all graphics specific, which basically postone the freeze in time in the game but still end by a freeze. only way to solve that is switch to single thread

I have no data to provide since game does not crahed but just freeze (i cannot do anything)

I player hundred of game over the last year with MT and never got a single problem with it.

I use i5 750 (quad). I rename spring-mt.exe into spring.exe.

Hope you can fix it, spring single thread is sooooooo slow.

This might also happen with the normal single-threaded client..

There should be valuable hang detection info in your infolog.txt

After the hang, wait at least half a minute and then make a mantis report and include the infolog.

As a temporary solution, disabling some widgets might help

Also sometimes it crashes but the background spring.exe thread still is loaded. But it doesnt show in windows taskbar.

(maybe this only happens on startup-hangs/crashes)
