The first bug I noticed immediately after installing the director's cut was that some of my commander icons show up missing in Strategic level. The stars for their rank are still there, and if you select them the skill are there, but the icon is just black. I didn't have this problem ever in 1.06, and installing the director's cut patch 1 did not fix this. The icons reappear only in tactical mode. I'm running an old gtc 7600 series card if I remember correctly. No other graphics issues.
I notice I couldn't attack some fleets even if they were moving at a Grandma pace and I was right on them. I would hear the "fleet got away" message right on top of the "will will destroy them," message. I thought at first maybe my fleet was patrolling too long and needed to resupply at a port first. I thought this fixed it with a different fleet earlier, but this didn't work with the next fleet more than once. So I had to reload my last save, cancel the order, reorder an attack and it worked again.
One other bug that is the worst is in the trade view window with director's cut. Sometimes when you try to sell one particular good it actually tries to sell the good listed just above it. I remember all I had on one ship when this was happening was tobacco and silverware. I did not want to sell the silverware there (I also had no warehouse there) and the best price for tobacco was in that port. But it would keep showing the quantity and price for silver when I was selecting and clicking on the tobacco icon which was a different quantity all together. I'm not sure if a reload will fix this either, it happens the most often.
