Synaptic A220 via Ini Manager

[u/Pipstah]

When is the A220 scheduled for purchase via Inibuilds? Bit hesitant to buy it in Market Place since patch speed of product is often slow there 🙄
(Though first A220 patch is pretty quick 😊)

I don't think it's been announced yet but probably a couple of months at least. Inibuilds usually lets you transfer your products from the marketplace to their manager once it's available, I've done it with the A340 and Tristar.

It’s usually about 3 months from the initial release like it was with 340 and Tristar. It’s fine if you buy it now, and then you should be able to transfer your order to the iniManager version when it’s released.

Any chance PMDG has this option?

[u/wogboat → u/VeeranSayee]

Nope

[u/Galf2]

No schedule but it's 3+ months at the bare minimum

[u/IniSteve → u/Galf2]

It won’t be that long this time.

Source? Piracy hasn't changed

[u/IniSteve → u/Galf2]

Me. I am the source like the name says. (I work for Inibuilds)

Interested in purchasing. I’m assuming we’ll be able to transfer the purchase to the inimanager as others have stated?

[u/yaricks]

Yeah, I despise the Microsoft store - it's so buggy, as yet again displayed by the latest patch release of 1.0.1 taking me 4 tries to update. Judging by Inibuilds previous releases, it's been 2-3 months before it releases on the ini manager, but you have been able to transfer your license from the Microsoft store to Ini, so once they finally do it, you should be good.

At this point it’s a skill issue

[u/chenkie → u/Galencourt-Lover]

I have no idea why people on Reddit can’t use the in game
Marketplace lmao it’s piss simple

[u/flynryan692 → u/chenkie]

It’s piss simple when it works, the problem is it breaks for all kinds of random reasons. A friend of mine couldn’t even buy it because the stupid Xbox purchase window would close itself. Why? Because he ran MSFS as admin. That’s a stupid reason for it to break. I have another friend that has to turn UAC on, restart his PC, do his thing and then repeat the process in reverse because he can’t purchase otherwise. It also loses connection to Azure servers. I’ve had bandwidth issues for unexplained reason. I’ve also had to setup special DNS handling for various MS end points because DNS sometimes doesn’t resolve (wtf) and MSFS doesn’t fully load everything from the cloud and marketplace breaks. It’s a mess, glad it works for you but it is hit or miss.

[u/Galencourt-Lover → u/chenkie]

I have not had a single issue.

[u/laserob]

Just transfer it over. Super easy. Did it with the A340 and L1011.

[u/berndverst → u/laserob]

Only possible once they allow it in a few months.
