Hey
I used to play spring over 6 months ago, I think I used 82.0 back then, worked fine.
I installed 85.0 yesterday hoping to play again, but the game is unplayable due to video jerking. After the loading screen, once the battlefield appears, the video is smooth for the first 3-5 seconds, and then when everything is done loading it becomes unplayably jerky. The FPS counter shows around 150-200fps the first few seconds its smooth, and then drops to 60-70 when it starts jerking.
This is in Gentoo, 64 bit. Compiled using "openmp" and "multithreaded", but I also recompiled without either and again without both, no difference. I initially thought it was a multithreading problem, but seems like it isn't.
Tried using Balanced Annihilation and ZeroK (svn or git or whatever it was).
Tried turning all widgets off and tried turning lua shaders off in spring-settings.
Tried medium and high quality in springsettings.
I tried starting Spring both from Springlobby and directly via the spring executable.
Nothing helped.
