it seems like with that driver version the AA looks better as well

For my Geforce GTX 1080 Ti the last driver proposed by Nvidia is 462.59.

I don't know why FSLabs released their build while 5.2 HF1 was incoming.

I would not worry too much, based on what Lefteris wrote in the FSLabs forums about the HF1 release and the buses compatibility:

If that happens, we'll make sure we are quick in releasing the new A32X product versions, as the differences are likely not going to be in internal functionality - obviously, don't hang me if that's not the case, but I will alert if there are unforeseen issues.

I just manually entered the 1080ti on Nvidia's driver site and it offered 471.11.

You are right, the Game Ready driver is 471.11.
The reason I get 462.59 is that I am using the Studio driver option instead of the Game Ready.

Did they fix the GMT time bug in the startup screen when using system time for default flight? As v5.2 seems to mix up local time with GMT time having to manually correct it, used to work fine up to the last version.

Apparently they also are going to fix the FPS reduction when undocking windows to multiple monitors:

http://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6312&t=142602

As to the related performance issue. With VSync off, I found that moving a panel to the intel display would actually drop the main app FPS by a good margin, but with vsync on was able to reproduce the drop from 60 to 30. We've tried all the different techniques and settings provided by DX12/Win10 and vsync just seems to have a mind of its own in the case of multi-window and multi-monitor scenarios. Waiting on more than one swap-chain/window sync adds a frame delay to the wait which can send the FPS on a downward spiral from 60, 30, 20, 15, 12.5, etc as you undock more views.

It seems the primary use for vsync is as a mechanism to throttle FPS rather than to avoid screen tearing, because the OS already performs a vsync on desktop windows. Because of this, we're going to add a change that will only enable a vsync on the main app window. This seems to avoid the issue where undocking windows causes an FPS drop. We will include a Prepar3D.cfg entry for disabling this new behavior, but we think most users will benefit.

will they fix the bug of Volumetric clouds cannot block the terrain in some viewing angles ?

 

471.11 also cleaned up my AA.  Note I'm not in 5.2.  Just 5.1HF though

5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW  and 2  22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU,  360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next

The hot fix for 5.1 was nearly 4 weeks after the 5.1 release.

LM is actively working on this. We Beta Testers are still testing.

So please take this positive. We asked LM to not rush things out.
