i hope Grandia 3 will be fully playable on this version. the game always freezes after the first cut scene when the main character leaves the village.

I'm affraid it's too late.
Grandia 3 IS fully playable http://pcsx2.net/compat.php?c=key

Yeah, the game has been playable for ages. I've played half of it, so I know.
The scene you mean is the FMV that plays, I guess.
That one is full fixed in the latest svn versions.
On earlier builds you needed to skip it before it ended.

i wonder why coders hesitate to add gui for patch use?
as awesome as 0.9.7 svn is, it is simply unusable without skip FMV feature.
If only someone will implement it, i am sure many people will gladly use svn for gaming (at their own risk) and coders could peacefully continue svn stage for ages..

ps. sorry, if it was added lately, i did not look into last builds, only tried to keep up with the changelog.

Unusable? There is only a handful games that still need skip video patches so it's very much usable for the majority of games.
Why not implement it? Because there is only Jake working on the GUI and there are DOZENS of other way more important things that need to get implemented/fixed first.

I rally wait for pcsx2 9.7. but its long time I wait for this. when you want too release it? is there any problem?

If it's so unusable you can always go back to the stable or the betas

Shadow Lady, in other ways 0.9.7 is awesome and i really want to play on it. But without the constant fear that i will have to replay some portions of the game (on old build) if i stuck in fmv.

I've gotten to Xorn on Grandia 3 on PCSX2 0.96 1888 just fine. There's an option to turn on "skip FMVs" in the game options.
