Gothic - Dialog interruption bug [Solved]

[Morgannin]

Having a really frustrating problem with Gothic. I can't say I've ever experienced it before, even with the same mods installed (I have the Playerkit/System pack, ThielHater's texture mod, and the 60FPS mod, just uninstalled Freddy's Texture pack because of a different problem). Basically the Hero's lines in dialog with any NPC is being routinely interrupted or just skipped by the NPC's. I've reinstalled the game and mods multiple times and to different directories with no change. I am using the GOG version and am asking for help there too, but in the meantime I'm going to try again on the Steam version, which I hoped to avoid because it's a lot glitchier.

I made a video to show the problems I'm having, here:

Suggestions?

Actually, I MAY have figured this out... I had Mud following me for humor's sake, and also because (for my walkthrough) I wanted to be able to show my viewers all of his dialog. Unfortunately, I think the bug is happening because his script to try and talk to the Hero is causing problems when I'm already in a dialog with another NPC. So in other words, it's Mud who's interrupting me, not the character I'm talking to...

I can also confirm this. The moment I beat up Mud, the issue disappeared
