Thanks for the patch Devs.
After some poor reports and against my better judgement I risked installing the patch and I'm pleasantly surprised. CloD already ran well on my system (spec below) but stutter is now non-existent and I'd say I'm getting a 10-15fps boost as well. I'm running without clouds and fps are 70-120 with Vsync on (120hz monitor) For me credit where credit is due...well done Devs!
I did have a 'white' Spitfire' on take off on the Airfield Attack QM but other than that no problems as yet. I reckon it's worth a re-boot after patch installation if things don't seem right.
The Hurricane FM now feels a bit like what it must be like to fly a double decker bus IMO
