downloading latest rev now (3034)
i always kept "disable optimized vertexinfo reading" checked, it didnt cause a bug in that game with prior versions of the emulator but ill try.
* EDIT* : Without " disable optimized vertexinfo reading " the game is just a pile of gfx glitches on my screen. Even if that were to somehow fix the issue, would be pointless.
rev 3034: the bug is still there. Aparently i managed to go a bit further into the game before the freeze this time. This time the console didnt give me a shower of error messages, it remained clean.

******************** EDIT *********************************************
Ok this will sound weird but please bear with me.
I managed to play for over 15 minutes on 3034 before i got a bug and that got me curious. I had an idea and tried it also on 3016 and had similar results.
The bug aparently isnt triggered by random time, but instead by interaction with game menus, mainly those that require you to frequently use the digital pad instead of the analogue stick, like shops, hiring feline companions, and even selecting savegames to load.
If I just load the very first highlighted savegame and try to play around without going to shops, without talking to ppl and without using d-pad related commands ( like changing the view or selecting game items to use), i simply dont get the bug.
Hardly a workaround tho as u wont get any far without those functions, but i thought perharps this could help. The only workaround so far is downgrading to rev 3014.
it happens both with my keyboard and with my USB joypad.
