[Solved] Latest "hotfix" lead to massive lags every 5 seconds and extreme loading times

mock

Last night's hotfix broke the game for me. I have massive lags, which seem to be caused by loading. Joining a team from the RR now takes 5 seconds. It is lagging so hard, I am running into walls. And as a commander almost all my meds miss.

System and NS2 logs show absolutely no abnormal readings.

Whatever you did, please revert it. For now the game is unplayable for me.

Fixed it by deleting the shaders.

Don't know what broke them, but deleting them resolves this.

I always remove the cache directory on videodriver update or else it'll grow indefinitely. It also loads much faster when the cache is clear compared to when it recompiles the shaders into an already populated directory.
