Not sure it was happening when I played the first time, but now all my characters seem to be "gliding" across the screen, not walking (ie, the legs do not move, and the character is not correctly facing the walking direction).

Anybody else seeing this?

Reboot your computer. The walking animation uses a system timer, and your system has been on so long that the timer count overloads a 32-bit integer, screwing up the game's animation timer.

haha, just figured out rebooting helped, I tend to suspend a lot.

thanks!
