Deactivating groups in my case is very annoying since I have over 20 groups dictating the behavior of the character and his weapon. Stopping the movement loops won't stop the animations and so on. I understand that deactivating groups allows for much more flexibility, but I'd have to manually program a deactivation event for each frame, which is annoying (there will be a lot of frames). I will try out timerx and see if that works. I'd much rather open another supapp to modify an .ini then, once quitting the subapp, load all the information back in.

The sub application object is by far the easiest and best way to pause the game, guys. TimeX is buggy, so it's out of the question. I will admit though, that I am not sure if you can do it using MMF 1.2, you may have to use MMF 1.5.
99 percent chance that the above post is 100 percent correct.

Just use Pete's method. The question will pause the original frame while the sub app will continue to work (just make sure the sub app does't cover the question). Otherwise you could try using a Diablo II style method where the inventory (it can still be a sub app) appears on the right and the game continues to play while it's open.
Why the hell am I on the computer at 1 in the morning? No, don't answer.
