Does it only freeze when you use the cheat codes, then?
Does it matter if you unzip the actually mansion zip file (whether it's case #1 or # 2) and play the unzipped archive?
Incidentally, in the case of where there is a zip in a zip file, it was never intended that you move the top-level directory into the custom mansion directory - just the mansion file, which can then be unzipped as well. Vern has noted that on his machine he sees a distinct difference when playing the game directly from the mansion zip file vs unzipping it, and playing from the expanded directory (this is how all the game mansions mansions are played).
Personally, I've only ever seen a big difference when the mansions are very large. I was just curious if this could be part of the issue you're seeing.
Also, does it seem to matter which cheat code is used?
