When will be the antialiasing addressed? 12.07? For now, 4x MSAA or the heavier 8x won't make any difference with my RTX 3080ti in 12.06b2, and FXAA with 2k monitor doesn't look good to me.

It's not on their top priorities since they all have macs with retina displays and nvidia cards with AA postprocessing and they don't care for us peasants with 1080p displays.

Ah... 

Had to set a custom resolution of 4k in Nvidia control panel and use it in my 2k monitor with XP12, it helps, but decreases the frames.

my suspicion from above error.log: WMR (Windows Mixed Reality) for my VR headset sometimes, after longer pauses not using it, shuts the headset down to protect the built-in LCD screens against burn-in effects, and x-plane's 2D-window has automatically resized to a lower resolution than my full 4K I had it before the crash. perhaps that's the problem and they need to make x-plane more robust against such unforeseen, unexpected resolution changes.

If you can (reliably) reproduce this, by all means, send LR a complete bugreport!

I´m on 4K and it shimmers like hell.

You also have to consider the screen size. A larger screen has lower DPI (at same resolution). In my case 75" with 4K. In addition, the distance to the screen must also be considered.

If I were gaming on a tiny iMac 27 inch 5k Retina, yes I wouldn't notice the shimmering either.

Austin stated that he didn't know about the issue. I think their testing team are the fans over at the org forum that can't see any issues with x-plane. Otherwise I can't explain how they didn't notice it.

You obviously havnt being over there reading all the complaints.

I think, that today many gamers are thinking, that the bigest display with the highest resolution ist the holy grail.

In my opinieon the most gamers follow the advertising promises of the manufacturers.

I think a good FullHD Display with 29" in combination wir TrackIR brings a lot more with less problems.

 

It reminds me of the time when the foxtail on the Opel Manta's antenna was a substitute for penis size.

Complaints come from users. Some of the "old timers" there are testers for x-plane and they see it as the most perfect flight sim and only care about ridiculous issues that they report back to Laminar.

FHD on a 29" screen sounds a bit...uncomfortable. Wouldn't QHD (1440p) be more appropriate for the screen size?

That function is merrily filled by SUVs and whatever else automotive monstrosity roams the streets nowadays.

I think you assume a lot. No one has ever said it is perfect, not one.
