OK Thank you Buchon!

Bug when joining MP servers is terrible - I can see the flags but cant select one, or cant see them at all. This happens about 80% of the time for me when joining MP servers - (in this case ATAG)

Bug: Unable to select airfield on map in Multiplayer mode. Map flickers around and will not allow anything to be selected.

Stuttering isn't bad but still present even at 60+ fps.

FPS is wildly erratic even when the hardly anything is going on. Even flying over water things will be smooth one second then suddenly fps starts jumping up and down as much as 30%.

Averaged 85 on Black Death with medium settings.

S!

Can agree on above statement of the FPS going berserk at times even nothing is really going on. Easiest seen with VSync Off.

+1

Yup I agree!! Thought I was the only one noticing this!!!

Small bug that's been around for ages is the lack of explosions ie smoke/fire when your kill crashes into the deck whilst in padlock mode. It just draws a 'pothole' and fixes your view to it.

Edit:- After some early positives for me with the new patch I'm rolling back to the previous version due to increased stuttering, freezing, and CTD. Already about 5 times this afternoon!

Well VSync is supposed to stabilize your FPS, just sayin...

After a couple of days of fiddling & using,I may go back to what I had before patch ...maybe even do an entirely fresh install.Here are my niggling problems some of which undoubtedly others have had as well:
1.) My onscreen plane customizer no longer works.When I change cammo or markings generally nothing happens,however in flight I do have the "new" plane.
2.) Initially inflight ib cockpit,exterior parts of my plane appear white.Hitting exterior view I have cammo'd plane.Hitting interior view again ,I now look out on cammo'd/marked aircraft.
3.) Lots of wierd things happening in various cockpits , already noted in detail by others in this thread.
4.) No real increase in FPS...at least not enough to deal with the problems this patch seems to have caused.
I do have a serious question : I saved both Stem & 1cSoftclub folders before patch.Would it be better at this stage to simply use these to overlay what I have or do a fresh reinstall...or for that matter simply delete the new patched "Parts" folder & slap in the old one in its place?What for the Official Steam Patch & continue to grumble under my breath...?
(Or should I place this post in technical issues?)
