The new version of OpenXR was released. 112.2209.2003 I installed it and tested it out.

It has completely resolved the issue for me!! I can now keep the focus on MSFS window in the foreground and it’s great because I don’t have to keep alt-tabbing when I need to interact with the cockpit using the mouse. MR maintains it lock at 45, 30, and 23 FPS!

The “problem” is reversed now. If I bring any window to the foreground now, the framerate tanks in MSFS. This includes hitting the Windows Key to pull open the WMR menu in VR and it’s janky/jittery and almost not useable.

@mbucchia a note here on OpenXR Toolkit as well.. because now when I pull open the Toolkit Overlay, the “framerate” for the overlay is jittery, and if you move your head around it blurs. This overlay used to be butter smooth before the OpenXR update. Just FYI!

Overall, this is a great thing, as I really don’t need (or want) any windows other than MSFS in the foreground while in VR. And I typically turn off the Toolkit overlay in my sessions unless i’m testing something. Curious to see what others results are!

Yeah, they nailed it. MR is working better than ever. I marked @mbucchia comment as the solution to this thread.

Since the update came out I’ve been able to open the sim and go flying again! No wasting time alt+tab’ing in and out of menus while observing fps counters etc.

Thank you all involved who solved that.

Good to hear that you are seeing improvements and thank you for the feedback.

There’s still a few people with issues since the update, and we will continue to look into them.

First flight with new version of Mixed Reality Runtime 112.2209.200. Here MR also works better than before.
I do not need to ALT-Tab out to get good performance! Only when switching out of VR and back in, i get stuttering and can solve it only by CTRL-ALT-DEL/ESC. But this could also be an MSFS problem.

Many thanks OpenXR-Team, keep up the good work!
