Today we released PIX version 2501.30, which can be downloaded here. This release includes support for everything that was in the 2412.12 version of PIX, plus the following improvements:

Support for Shader Hash Bypass

PIX has full support for this new D3D12 feature that allows apps to bypass shader hash validation in D3D12 runtime by embedding a sentinel BYPASS hash value in any shader binary.

For more information about Shader Hash Bypass, please visit this blog post.

GPU Captures:

  • Fix an issue where the launched app terminates after taking a GPU capture
  • Fix C++ export compilation
  • Fix custom visualizer DispatchRays execution
  • Simplify feedback email subject line
  • Switch to Agility SDK version 615 at replay time

Timing Captures:

  • Fix bugs affecting Timing Captures when PIX does not have admin privileges

As usual, please send your suggestions and/or feedback to us via the feedback button in top right corner of PIX or via the DirectX Discord!
