You're right. I had heard everyone talking about a W7/Vista compatible client and I just took it on the chin. The game runs and feels much smoother while playing, but I have nothing to offer aside from anecdotes and that resource screencap that doesn't really address the issue: DCing at multiform bosses and other graphical hiccups.
I don't know if anyone else has this particular problem, but... Sometimes after doing something like MuLung Dojo or just doing some general exploration [it does like to hit me in Mu Lung, though] MapleStory's backgrounds will shift or warp and be completely distorted. Any of those nice 'pop-up' texts [Like WRONG/CLEAR in PQs, or STAGE X in the dojo] are also warped and illegible. This happened some days in KMS after I made that post.
I've experienced in both GMS and KMS, so I guess that can count against there being any real graphical optimization in the engine. The game does seem less CPU intensive though. GMS still stresses one of my cores to the max no matter what I'm doing or where I am.
And, of course, the EF runners DCing constantly.
