So short freezes are not stutters and mostly do not have anything to to with grafic settings. I experience them too sometimes (also long prior 4.12) and I suspect the sound settings instead.

I had the sound quality up at 32 channels, lowered that to the default. Selected Headphones instead of Desktop Speakers (I use headphones 'cause of TrackIR 99.5% of the time). Played around with a few of the ingame settings, and the stutters have reduced somewhat.

The only other thing that I am yet to try, (and don't really want to delete them if I don't need to), is the sound pack to see if that makes any difference.

Didn't know you were working with a modded version. Not that that's a bad thing, but all bets are off at that point.

[sound]
SoundUse=0

Turn the game sound off completely to test it, if ok and no freeze, you can tweak the sound settings under conf ini channels etc etc till it stops freezing.

I use the sound files JGr.Ost_Caspar posted here on the forum and have no problems with modded sounds.

If it still freezes with the sound off then tweak the graphics and/or instal old/new GPU drivers

The new v4.12 has "plugin" modded sound file capability via the gui.

I have been playing around with sound settings and graphics etc with not much success.

I then removed the sound pack that is linked on the forum here and flew the same mission again...

no stutters or freezes...

Oh well at least it's running smooth again.

Thanks for the assistance guys...

EDIT:

Some hours later and I noticed stutters are still happening. I guess it's time to roll back to an older driver version for my card.
