I cannot reproduce this bug on my 970m. I'm still searching for the pattern of what causes it. It seems to be related to 1070 and 1080 cards but some users do not see a problem. I've made contact with Laminar today to see if we can gain any insight into what might be happening but without a consistent set of data as to what causes it I can't give them much solid direction either. For now, use a non beta install of the sim. The VR beta branch is undergoing many changes under the hood to optimize the XP rendering engine. I'm as annoyed as you are.

I've been able to reproduce this bug on my local machine by forcing X-Plane to use my Intel GPU. I should be able to make some progress resolving this now.

I seem to have located the root cause of this problem. At this time I believe it's on Laminars end as it's calls to the SDK function XPLMDrawString(...) that are creating the problem. We're working with Laminar to resolve the issue and hopefully we'll see a fix shipped in 11.20r2.

I spent the day writing a clean-sheet plugin in C to Proof-of-Concept this so Laminar can trouble shoot as efficiently as possible. I have been able to reproduce the issue. At this stage it looks like the error is not actually in XPLMDrawString(...) but some other OpenGL related code. Probably best if I do not continue to speculate. The exact root cause will reveal itself soon enough.

XP 11.20r2 has been released and this problem has now been fixed. Update to r2.

Laminar have been notified of the issue. We're waiting on them to resolve it. Sorry there's nothing more I can do at this time.

Please follow this thread for more info;

xEnviro team have identified the issue as their own and the fix will have to come from their side. https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/149092-xe-and-gizmo/&tab=comments#comment-1428322

That's a new one.... Will have to investigate. Standby.
