Pyro made this statement about beta 33 "This version will cause you to see strange artifacts and polys on initial texture loads.
This is to assist us in debugging some stuttering that has been reported in the beta. There's
no need to report the graphic anomolies on the texture load, everybody will get that. What
we would like to know is if this decreases or alleviates the stuttering problems that have
been present for the past couple versions."

Question is? Does this apply to Beta 35?
Or is the beta simply getting worse for me?
NOW.......when i load the game... My graphics start out with general framework...and Slowley begins to Draw in the artwork...Tower, Clipboard, Plane cockpit view...ect.

I see the same thing and still get stutters and pauses.  It makes attacking buffs very difficult because right as you get into range where he can start shooting you and you need to be shooting him, the screen makes either several short pauses or a big long pause, and it's worse if there are multiple bombers.

I dove on a buff formation from 2000 yards and right around 1000 yards when it was time to start hurling in cannon shells, the screen froze 7 or more times.  When it unfroze, I was already well past the buffs and had no chance whatsoever to even open fire.

I've tried moving the texture load slider around but it has not helped at all.
