Advanced Shader Delivery (pre-compiled shaders) available

Featured Replies

The latest nvidia driver 621.01 now enables pre-compiled shaders to be used with MSFS 2024 (I can only confirm store version - not sure about Steam). These are downloaded automatically once the new driver is installed. No user action required.

ASD is meant to reduce stutters that were due to shaders being compiled during game play after a sim or driver update. Not sure this is a huge problem for MSFS 2024 but it comes free with 621.01

Thanks for mentioning. Yet how are they actually activated?

Once you’ve updated your driver to 621.01 the next time you start MSFS 2024 it should perform a download (presumably the precompiled shaders) and that’s it! You should see the new message in the lower left of the splash screen saying “precompiled shaders installed” (see screenshot on the official forum link I gave). Note I’m on msstore version, beta su7.1. That may or may not be relevant.

For now, it only works with games purchased through the Xbox app.

Yes that’s unfortunate but coming “soon” to Steam (and others) though according to the official blog…

Advanced Shader Delivery is Available Now Across Hardware...

A few weeks ago, we announced that Advanced Shader Delivery (ASD) is available for Gears of War: E-Day and teased that the feature is coming to devices

Edited by boez

My understanding was that msfs2024 compiled shaders during the launch phase of the sim and not during a flight, so if I understand correctly, that would not have any effect on smoothnes and stuttering in game. I would like to be proved wrong in this respect though.

Thanks for the explanation! I saw the message today and was wondering what it referred to.
