In-game music freezes up screen whenever it changes #185

Closed kgersen closed 8 years ago

kgersen commented 8 years ago

Right now, one of the reasons I don't have music on is because every time it changes track, the game freezes up for a second or so and the issue is more relevant in situations like:

"an enemy ship getting eyed in your sector would instantly change your music to something more dramatic, and this would make the game freeze up for just a second... just as you need to start reacting..." -girlyboy

It just makes turning music on inconvenient if you want to stay competitive.

Wav/Ogg files will be loaded into memory on first load. On old systems ( or slow harddisks) it will _freeze'' system like described above.

''You got the same effect with HighRes textures: If you switch first time from lobby to ingame lobby screen with high res textures enabled. Allegiance needs some time to preload textures._
