The movement stuttering and 'double image while jumping' is probably the result of us tinkering further with the air acceleration and gravity cvars in an attempt to hinder bunny hopping without breaking other movement elements like window dropping; also I think we incorporated crouch jumping by default if you jump up but unsure. It's highly likely though that it might be the result of some server plugins indirectly interfering with the game, try joining another server

When you talk about FPS drops, does it only happen when you're shooting a zombie at a rapid pace? We encountered it in the dev build and thought we resolved it by increasing heap size, but if that's the case we'll most likely look at that bug some more.

As for textures flickering on and off, are you playing as a zombie while using the new Zombie Vision?

The FPS drops happen randomly to me as a human, but especially as a zombie with the new zombie-vision.
For example: If I look the the bright lighted area at zpo_harvest in front of the house:

(watch hd+fs - anyways, you still cant see the full "effect" on the video)

And about texture flickering: What actually flickers are the lights for example (of the police cars) and some other textures in lighted areas. I don't notice it that often during gameplay.

Random FPS drops are really more annoying.

I've noticed the crouch+jump flicker on both survivor and zombie. It seems to be more pronounced on some maps (e.g., more so on Cinema than Harvest, for example), for whatever it is worth.

The reason for the FPS drops with zombie vision is due to it now using a dynamic light, if you want to switch back to the old one go to options -> multiplayer -> advanced and check cheap zombie vision.
