Steam and Cache-Deleting

[mcFly]

Do you have the shimering shadows?
I did delete the cache before applying the patch but have the flickering.
Could it be a solution to reinstall the whole game?

Personally, I first applied the latest patch over the usual install, deleting the my docs folder and cfg files, ubi logo, thinking that would be fine.

I still, however, got really bad stutters.

So I tried deleting everything, little regclean, complete reinstall. Rebuilding cfgs, not just pasting them in. Re-ran distributables.

For my part, this produced a much smoother experience. Still some stutters, but minor enough to be ignored if not being sought.

Highly recommend complete clean install.
