hitching/hiccupping/freezing/stuttering what ever you want to call it, after GU today

[Brigh]

<p>Anyone else having this problem where the game just freezes for a second or few every now and then?</p><p>I didn't have this before today's update.</p>

<p>This started for me as well after today's update.  </p><p>Any word from a dev on what the problem is and when it will be fixed?</p>

<p>The game froze twice for me today after the update.  It's a brand new system and hasn't had any issues playing EQ since I got it a month ago until today.</p>

<p>I have this kind of issue, with GPU shadows on.</p><p>Before GU, i can use it without any drop in FPS, but now, movment is jerky. In North Qeynos, when i run or turn quickly the camera, i freeze for 1 second, my FPS drop to 60 to 6-16 fps, then come back to 60 - I have vertical synchronisation and triple buffering on.</p><p>By the way, in Shadows options, i cannot modify options for CPU Shadows. When I select GPU shadows, i cannot check the button to use them in interior, and no modify options. In CPU Shadows, it is the same.</p><p>My configuration is :</p><p>Corei7 860, 4Go RAM, ATI HD 4890, Catalyst driver 9.11, Win 7 Pro 64 bits.</p>

<p>Yup, hitching/stuttering for me in all zones after the update.  Only way I can get around is it to turn complex shaders totally off.  Its lame.</p>
