[bug] Interactive Cloth component freezing Unity during menu turnoff?

David

Tested this with my Menu which originally started as the 3D demo one. 

Tried with the Demo Scene one too, same result but it's a little different. In my scene, Unity freezed completely and I couldn't do anything else anymore. Had to forcefully close it via task manager. Probably because it's bigger?

In a new scene, after I assign the mesh (this is key, otherwise it doesn't crash) it does Freeze, the cursor gets locked in the center, but after 4-5 seconds it unfreezes. Very weird.

Tested with various meshes, of course.

Just to be clear, step by step:

- Play, Open the menu

- Press Esc\click to resume the game -> freeze.

 1.40a btw. Unity 4.5.5 - Windows 7 64bit Pro.

Other infos which are probably not related: First person, locked cursor at start.

Seems this is actually a bug with Unity - the cloth component can't handle time freezing.  I can disable cloths while the game is paused, which will solve the problem, but it'll be a temporary fix until Unity itself is updated with a proper solution.

... crap . Thanks, Chris. 

I'll try to send Unity a report about this - I haven't downloaded the 4.6beta but I assume the problem persists? Besides I don't really want to use beta stuff...

Unfortunately it happens even if I build the game of course, so yeah, I'll appreciate any workaround you can think of, so that at least I can watch my scene without disabling them completely.

Thank you. I know Chris has "fixed" this in 1.40b and it works - not sure what solution is better.
