I’m really hoping this fixes a majority of the r. At least the stuttering and freezes. A new quirk my group has had was these micro freezes. But a buddy of mine crashed like 5 times last night
Hoping we get some stability now. And it’s probably gonna come with its own new bugs but I’m really hoping it’s a net positive

your friend needs to clear the shader cache, I was having that same issue

... Anyone remember when they tried to fix fire? They had to go back and refix.

they completely changed the fire system then reverted it because they fucked it up lmao
