Random Black spots/fog

Yeah.....might try rolling back the drivers. I've got the latest and greatest drives from Nvidia. I'm noticing this happening a lot now. Just pulled out of port and i'm getting the random Black blotches (TM ?? haha) near the boat. When returning to port from the previous patrol.....Heligoland Island was completely covered in the "black fog" for a bit.

Having some random game stutters near convoys too. Basically when I attack a convoy....a moment before impact of a torpedo I get a pause....then random pauses as the fireworks of starshells/flares/explosions in the chaos that follows. It's not bad...but its noticable. Think i'm going to have to figure out how to set up my system better to maximize performance.....any advice givers or links to good info? My system is tip top...so I was a little taken back when this happens.... but i'm not very savvy with max performance set up.

Not sure about older drivers.
Was using old drivers, and it was the same.
Latest nvidias have same results.
But again it's happening quite rarely, and since my last complete reinstall without messing too much with mods, i didn't see it again yet.

There is an IRAI patch that removes starshells from the game. I believe there is a bug with starshells. On my system things slow to a near crawl when attacking a large convoy with starshells. Attacking the same convoy with the patch enabled, my problems went away. I have a single 560ti, 4gbs ram, i-2500k so your system should be able to handle the same large convoys.

Well I love the star shells! Does the patch get rid of them or just make it less buggy/antifast?
