AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) + MSFS2020

Same here.
Msfs24 wasn’t recognized and listed in the games.

The workaround is to make a shortcut on your desktop of your msfs24.exe which needs to have the exact same name as the original exe.

Then you can add the game in adrenaline and launch msfs24.
However it doesn’t give any fps numbers/history/afmf etc.

So it seems that it’s not doing anything.
I hope this will get resolved soon!

Mine just worked when 2024 installed…didn’t touch anything

Which version do you have? Steam or MS Store?

Steam, latest AMD driver

I think the issue is only for the MS Store versions because those go via the xbox app.

yeah issue for xbox game pass, maybe wait for amd driver..

On a similar but unrelated topic, wasn’t FSR3 supposed to be in 2024?

it was suposed, a developper told me they will add frame generation in game in few time

Reinstall the driver and see if the Adrenaline software picks up MSFS2024 from the initial scan.
The reason i am suggesting this is because on my system the “app” based games seem to get detected when the adrenaline software is installed and run for the first time. A simple scan for games after the install never seem to detect msfs (for me at least)

I had planned to stick with another AMD Card but if they cant get fluid motion frames going with MSFS2024 then i will be forced to team green and i was trying not to do that since i preferred the driver based frame gen implementation.

So fingers and toes crossed someone gets on top of it if MSFS2024 is really not being detected.

Mine is working, i am Steam, are you?

Did DDU and reinstalled adrenalin driver.
No change on that … MSFS24 is still not recognized.
As said before the reason is due to the xbox gamepass link with the MS Store version.

I suppose you are using the steam version?

Youre on gamepass ?

No, I have bought the full MS Store version but you need to go through the Xbox app.

And it seems that is the reason why Adrenaline doesn’t recognize MSFS24.

yeah we need to wait for (maybe) an AMD update driver and autorisation for xbox to add the game like for FS2020..
if they’re never going to do that, I’ll have to buy it on steam, but I’m not happy about that.

Had to format the PC and reinstall MSFS2020 (Store version). AFMF used to be OK from day one for months now but after the reinstall it does not work anymore.

My understanding is that AFMF does not work because Adrenaline 24.12.1 does not detect the game anymore in Gaming → Games → Library and I haven’t found a way to manually add MSFS 2020 in there. Before the reinstall, I’m pretty sure the game would be detected automatically and it even showed performance stats.

Anyone else having this issue?

ps: MSFS2024 seems to be OK.

pps: this might be because now MSFS2020 seems to be installed in C:\XboxGames\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Content, I don’t think it was there before? But then MSFS2024 is also in XboxGames and it’s fine. I think this is more of an AMD issue than anything else.

I don’t think it matters where the game is installed for AFMF to work. I’d ensure VRR was turned on and if it still doesn’t work go into the Adrenalin settings and do a “Factory Reset” (you’ll need to put your settings back in).

If all else fails you can do a DDU and reinstall.

Thanks. Not entirely sure what’s the point of DDU cleanup and reinstalling when this is all after a disk format and clean Windows install without preserving any files, but I may try that as well after doing a factory reset.

It’s just curious how both MSFS’s are in the same folder (XboxGames) but one is detected while the other isn’t. Definitely looks like an AMD thing…

I have a similar problem with TrackIR and AMD Hyper-RX’s Fluid Motion Frames 2.1 in FS2020 and FS2024. With TrackIR Off my FPS might be 125 and very smooth over KLAX. If I turn TrackIR ON those fps drop by approximately 30% and I get micro-stutters. This just started happening when I upgraded to an RX 7600xt, which of course works with Hyper-RX (FMF 2.1).

Can you still use this AFMF2 option in amd panel in combination with the ingame frame generation FSR3?

I’m confused because I tried both together and fps is much higher with both enabled.

Only radion chill doesn’t seem to work with both enabled

In 2024 I found that the settings in the AMD panel are pretty much ignored. I also found that using FSR3 over plain old TAA didn’t seem to improve performance. FSR’s frame gen does give a noticeable improvement, but it has way more artifacts over DLSS used on my old Nvidia card. I think we will only see benefits when MSFS moves to FSR 3.1. I haven’t been able to get MSFS 2024 to use FSR 3.1 using the AMD control panel.
