30th June 2021 Developer Q&A: Complete/Quick Summary

Featured Replies

Mmm - this sounds promising for us with CPU cores to spare. If the CPU bottlenecks are removed with improved multithreading and the GPU gets fully loaded it could give rather nice improvements for us lucky sods that have managed to get hold of 3xxx cards after many months of waiting. Not that I am disappointed in any way with the performance as it is today with the incredible level of detail in MSFS!

Im downloading PerformancePlus as we speak. So did they get the Beta early then? Everyone talks about a tomorow release.

Are you sure? What's the version number? I don't have anything in my MS Store.

Oh nice the Swiss government gave them all their DEM data.

Someone from Iceland is giving them better DEM data as well.

They will probably distribute it in waves, but I wouldn’t discuss it here. Isn’t the closed forums open already?

True. They said on the stream that it doesn't go live until 8AM Pacific tomorrow.

Only the Standard edition will have a physical edition, they're being cautious due to COVID-19.

What’s the punchline?

Performance was better (at least for me), but it did cause crashes, out of memory and such.

The PerformancePlus test is essentially the X-Box Build according to Jorg.

And the xbox build is dx12 only, so its safe to say we should have dx12 next month, but we will see tommorow after I download the beta update. They did say the more advance dx12 stuff would come later

They said on stream that it won't be DX12 I'm pretty sure. The X-Box one is because X-Box is DX12 only, but the PC patch won't be adding DX12.

Physical media has taken a hit because of covid. There is no punchline.

Watch from 9 mins to see the performance gain, WOW!

PC build will still be DX11.

Edit: i meant DX11, the 2 was a typo. (“Will still be”)

They said it wasn't in the stream. PC is staying on DX11 for now, but DX12 will come eventually.

Again, for people that didn't watch the stream or pay attention to the stream: the PC version of MSFS will remain on DirectX 11 after the July 27th update.
