I wonder if this fixes the weird DirectX 12 graphical issues reported in this thread here: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/dx12-issues-weird-graphics-glitches-stutters-in-panning/529129/387

An example of how to use the new frame rate mini option, use this command line:

cmd.exe /C start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -FastLaunch -showFramerateMini

So.. disabled dx12 memory optimizations in update that should optimize dx12? cool... 

A few minutes flying and I'm not seeing artefacts in DX12 yet. 4k with DLSS balanced, texture resolution on ultra.

VRAM usage seems to be under control.

Can someone refresh my memory please? Where do I find the current version number I have installed on my pc?

Set windowed mode and you'll see the version number at the top of the screen.

Press ALT+ENTER and it shows on the upper left of the window.

I am not in the beta, but I really like this new approach where they give themselves enough time to crank out the beta and then two months of testing/fixes to RTM. Four SU's in a year is plenty IMO, this is headed in the right direction.

A lot of people are reporting when DLSS is used, the glass panels on the Garmin and other systems are blurry.  Are the glass panels blurry for you?

Yes, we should give feedback to Asobo that we like longer beta tests like this.

Thank you folks. Much obliged. 👍

No complaints here. Was smooth, fast and beautiful before and still is. I never had any of the artefacts I've seen screenshots of. Temps exactly as before.

Yes... still blurry displays with dlls in dx11 and dx12.
