Issues fixed

Microstuttering

Microstuttering of camera view and player animations, similar to that caused by poor online connection. This is due to the interference of Microsoft multimedia drivers with connection to Red Orchestra servers.
Instructions

Disappearing/flickering graphical elements

An issue with object culling may cause objects, terrain, particle effects and even the sky to disappear or start flickering, usually after playing for a certain amount of time or alt-tabbing.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/35450/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (35450) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
