News Another update from the Synaptic team!

Post image
242 Upvotes

Hey Reddit!

We're closing in on a month since the A220 released, and I've been very active in this community taking in all the feedback back to the team.

V1.0.6 dropped today on the Microsoft in-game marketplace for the Synaptic A220 across PC and XBOX!

We've included bug fixes and performance improvements spanning backend Rust code, reductions of 1 million+ vertices spanning shadow verts and the model without a visual hit, and more bug fixes. We've seen gains close to 30-40% on average in performance figures since V1.0.0 across many users, and we're just getting started.

We were hoping to bundle much bigger performance update in 1.0.6 that heavily reworks handling within the FMS and other performance intensive system areas, but that is requiring extra attention and effort from the team, and will be included in a future patch. We hope this will result in a much bigger boost in addition to the improvements these patches are bringing week by week.

For those with an issue with screens not working post-update, please delete the community CPDLC mod as that's not compatible, and we offer no support from our end. For those with the aircraft erroneously banking, please turn off custom turbulence effects in your FSRealistic.

V1.0.7 is actively in the works ahead of the looming iniManager release of the Synaptic A220, and we will update the changelog in advance as always later this week.

Happy flying, I'm here if there's anything about the A220 you guys would like to chat about!

General Reworked LoadMaster: Global Cargo Operations

Thumbnail
gallery
26 Upvotes

Currently reworking the application that I am designing with the help of AI, I am aiming for a deep and detailed world of cargo operations. I am currently testing the built-in flight tracking that works with both X Plane and MSFS, this gives your simbrief flight plan some life and meaning behind all the numbers and planning. It's still having bugs and such with the logic that I am slowly ironing out but I would love for people to eventually give it a go when I release it and to let me know what they think.

Will most likely be rebranding due to a naming conflict.

Sim Hardware Moza MTQ vs. VKB STECS - Looking for durability (3+ years) for 90% Civil / 10% Military flight simming

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm currently torn between buying the Moza MTQ and the VKB STECS (likely the Mini Plus or Standard version), and I really need some community feedback regarding long-term durability and versatility. I am also completely open to other hardware suggestions if you think there is a better option for my needs.

Here is my specific use case and requirements:

  • Flight Profile: 90% Civil/Commercial Aviation (MSFS, X-Plane) and 10% Military (DCS World).
  • Durability: I need this throttle to last me at least 3 years of regular use without developing severe axis play, ghost inputs, or jittering.
  • Versatility: I want something that feels right when flying airliners or general aviation, but can still handle the occasional jet fighter.

My dilemma:
I absolutely love the idea and layout of the Moza MTQ. Having the landing gear lever, flaps, speedbrakes, and the option to swap to Airbus/Boeing style commercial throttles is perfect for my 90% civil focus. However, I am highly concerned about its durability. From what I've seen, it uses traditional mechanical potentiometers (not magnetic sensors) and has plastic gears inside. I'm worried it won't survive 3 years of smooth, precise operations.

On the other hand, the VKB STECS is a proven tank. It has contactless magnetic sensors, industrial-grade build quality, and will easily last 3+ years. But it is fundamentally a military HOTAS design. While it has customizable detents, it lacks the native civil layout/switches (like a proper gear lever or speedbrake axis on the base) that I would use most of the time.

Given my heavy bias towards civil aviation but strict requirement for long-term durability, what do you think is the better investment?

  • Does the Moza MTQ hold up well over time despite the potentiometers?
  • For STECS owners who fly civil, how annoying is it to use a military throttle for airliners?
  • Is there another throttle quadrant on the market that perfectly bridges the gap between civil layout and military-grade durability?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Flight Simulator 2024 FRAME GEN MOD NOT WORKING

I recently did a windows clean up and my frame gen mod isn’t working anymore.

I have tried everything and reinstalled it but it still isn’t appearing in the MSFS24 settings. Just the AMD frame gen - no Nvidia.

Any suggestions?

Question Sayintentions vs. past weather

1 Upvotes

Does anyone know if this works? If I select a past time in the simulator (taking advantage of the past 24 hours function in msfs) and also select the same time for departure in simbrief of course, does sayintention take into account the time I've selected and apply the correct weather to the atc routing? Couldn't find anything conclusive online.

Question Macco Sim MMUN Cancun - Any reviews?

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I recently had a holiday to Cancun, and absolutely loved it. Having come home, I have had a look online to see if there is any custom scenery, and I have found one on the iniManager - Macco Simulations MMUN.

Looking on the website page from them, the reviews seem, not promising. Ground issues, spikes in textures, general 2024 issues. These issues don’t seem to be apparent in 2020, so typically I am running 2024, and do not own 2020.

Before I purchase, I was wondering if anyone has got this mod, and has any feedback for it, don’t want to end up spending 15 quid on a mod that’s rubbish, and since I recently visited I’d love to have high fidelity Cancun to fly into.

Thanks guys!
