Latest beta build [1.39.9.0] has introduced flickering textures on buttons, labels, and instruments. It’s so bad on some you cannot even read the text.
I’ve been able to reproduce on every load in of PMDG aircraft and the new Citation X.
This did not occur in previous beta builds or current public release.
Video showcasing issue:
Citation X
PMDG 777
I am seeing this as well on PMDG 777 and 737. It was present in the 737 on SU15 but is definitely worse on SU16 beta
That looks like z-fighting.
Suggests something’s been changed in the camera/rendering settings.
Sure hope this isn’t still in the now released SU16.
I will test later tonight unless some can confirm before.
Edit:
The full release of SU16 went live for all players earlier today. If you were enrolled in the SU16 beta, then you are already on the final SU16 release build (1.39.9.0), and no update is required.
Thanks,

This is exactly what I was afraid of. Sigh.
Yeah the textures on the pmdg777 are bugged
Yeah they are pretty bad. It’s so frustrating that it seems that in order for improvements to be had in one area, there has to be bugs/regressions added in others.
I highly doubt this is a 3rd party issue or that they can resolve it. I for one was happy with SU15 and I wish you weren’t forced to upgrade.
It remains to be seen if there will be another SU for 2020, but it sure ruins flying the Citation and 777. I can’t make out the labels. I got used to the 737, but the 777 is horrible. It makes PMDG look bad and I don’t believe it their fault.
Can someone confirm if this is an Xbox issue only?
I will try to contact pmdg support team maybe they can do something
Thank you for the bug report.
We have created an internal ticket to see if our team already has this logged, and if not they will attempt to reproduce the issue and create a new bug report. This item is now marked as feedback-logged. If there is an existing bug report or one is created, we will move this thread to bug-logged.
Please fix this bug 
Yes this happened both the add-on and default liveries on most aircraft I could find, there was some supposed z fighting going on with the default texture and the actual livery
That last one is weird. Z-fighting doesn’t happen between textures, it occurs when polygons are overlapping or too close to each other.
Can you fix this bug in 1/2 weeks please🙏
It can happen between textures if they’re mapped on the same polygons, although in my experience it would be 1 or the other showing rather than a mix of the two together
One month after sim update 16 still no fix for this 
Where are we on this? Pretty significant issue appears to be neglected
So far our team has only been able to reproduce on 3rd party aircraft and not on our base or premium deluxe aircraft. If anyone is able to reproduce it with aircraft that are not external, please let us know!
So still no fix? Pmdg team said to me that they need to rely to Asobo//Ms to know the issue that is causing this flickering textures bug on Xbox.
A20N v2 has got this in the cockpit slightly but on the wings very much
Any news about this?
