September 29, 20205 yr Nvidia has released a new version of their GeForce driver, 456.55, which is claiming to improve performance in MFS 2020. Just a FYI. I'm about to try it but doubt it will make much of a difference.

September 29, 20205 yr I couldn't find any mentions to MSFS in the 456.55 release notes. Where did you see it improves performance?

September 29, 20205 yr Author Within the almighty GeForce Experience after selecting the Driver button. There a blurb about what's new with the new driver. It mentioned something about improved performance. I could have misread, certainly. I didn't notice anything bad, and I'm not sure about anything good. I had a very smooth night flight from KADS to San Marcus Regional in the Mooney. It was beautiful, and I didn't notice a single slowdown. This all means jack, of course. The full moon's light on the surface and scattered cloud layers was pretty sweet.

September 29, 20205 yr Hello, In French, after installation of this new driver : I got a message from Geforce experience to optimize Fs 2020, I agreed, by clicking the button, but restored some parameters once in Fs 2020. I think it simply gives you some basic settings based on your Pc. You are free to move up or down what you think is important !

Dev mode showed less frame drops in Harsfield-Jackson compared to previous driver. Good one!
September 29, 20205 yr 1080ti here, by the way. (I can't seem to find a way to edit posts, apologies for the bump)
September 29, 20205 yr There is nothing mentioned about MSFS even in the official changelog. http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/456.55/456.55-win10-win8-win7-release-notes.pdf There was however in the previous driver, and what @ctdlg showed was already present since the previous driver Chock 1.1: "The only thing that whines louder than a jet engine is a flight simmer."

September 29, 20205 yr Yes, my bad! 🙃 - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.
September 29, 20205 yr Here's to hoping they fixed the Freestyle issue where you lose all your settings and have to clear a hidden temp folder to make Freestyle work again. - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20
September 29, 20205 yr Do you recommend any easy tutorial for using Freestyle with MSFS? I should give it a try...! - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.
September 29, 20205 yr Thanks for the heads up on the new drivers. 456.55 and 456.38 seem the same for me, but for some reason these hot-fix drivers noticeably improve my FPS. Has anyone else had the same experience? https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5074/~/geforce-hotfix-driver-version-452.22 I'm running 2070 super, 3950x, 32gig 3600 ram
