      This article briefly details specific changes included in the product update (recent changes, feature enhancements, or bug fixes). This software suite includes the Game Center, HaptiSync App, Adaptive Gaming Configurator and Drivers.

      Game Center - November 28, 2024

      • Game added:
        • Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
      Please note: D-BOX Haptic Code may respond incorrectly during loading screens, mission 'accept screens', or cinematics. This is a bug in the game and we look forward to its resolution in a future game update from Microsoft

      Motion Core 11.6 - April 25, 2024

      Adaptive Gaming Configurator

      • Some user interface (UI) tweaks have been implemented in the Generic Controllers and Joystick Controllers sections to enhance clarity and user-friendliness.
      • The "Haptic Mute Enabled" toggle switch has been updated. Now, when toggling the switch from OFF to ON, the actuators no longer reinitialize. This improvement results in a more efficient and effective muting function.
      • The "Adaptive Gaming Enabled" toggle switch has been replaced with a banner. This banner will only appear at the top when Adaptive Gaming is not the active mode. Its purpose is to inform the user that the Adaptive Gaming functionalities will not be available and provide a button to switch to Adaptive Gaming mode for full functionality.

      Adaptive Gaming mode:               

        • Significant improvements have been made to the Adaptive Gaming Mode, marking its exit from the beta phase. Users can now utilize multiple devices in a profile (e.g. Joystick and Throttle) and map each to different effects.
        • Previously built Adaptive Gaming profiles continue working as intended, but need to be updated in order to use the new multiple device mapping support.
      D-BOX Coded mode:
        • The D-BOX Coded Video mode has been enhanced, enabling users to preload haptic code for the movie they are about to watch.  This Fast Sync feature aims to accelerate content recognition and synchronization.  To enable Fast Sync, users need to have version 3.1 of our HaptiSync Mobile app.  Please note that this functionality is not available on the Windows app.

      • Fixed a previously encountered problem preventing the Game Center from opening when the user's D-BOX Connect session expired.

      Known issues:

      • We are aware of an issue in Adaptive Gaming where continuous axis movement may incur significant latency with the mapped haptic effect. The team is already mobilized in resolving it and will deploy a fix soon.
