PIX 1906.14 is now available for download here.  This release adds GPU timings to the New Timing Capture preview and further improvements to DXIL shader debugging.

Highlights include:

  • New Timing Capture Improvements
    • Support for GPU timing data (see below)
    • Many other usability improvements, performance improvements and bug fixes
    • This release of PIX adds GPU Timing Data to the preview of New Timing Captures. Like with Legacy Timing Captures, GPU Timing data displays GPU work alongside your API calls; in the graph below, each bar represents the Top of Pipe to End of Pipe duration of a GPU operation on the Command Queue:

  • New pixtool features:
    • New ‘launch’ options: –remote, –force11on12, –ignore11on12.  Run “pixtool –help launch” for more information.
    • Added ‘take-new-timing-capture’ command.  Run “pixtool –help take-new-timing-capture” for more information.
  • GPU Capture Improvements
    • New event list control – can now pin columns, sort without losing hierarchy as well as general performance improvements
    • Fixed issue with extremely slow capture-time performance when using reserved resources (previously this was worked around by copying dxcompiler into the same directory as the title)
    • Fixed various shader debugging issues
