First tests indicate that the latest releases of swift DO work with X-Plane 12. The "ALPHA" version of swift is safe and stable to be used by anyone!

swift has to be one of the most complex over done programs i've seen. pretty sure my brain split in half while trying to install it. way to much and can be severly simplified.

That's true, it is a complex program and the installation/setup can be daunting at first sight. We have produced a number of Tutorial Videos (see URLs) to help new and seasoned users. Once you got the hang of the program, it is rather easy to use and to upkeep and I personally do not want to miss its features like the traffic radar display, list of other pilots around you, including the COM-frequencies used by them etc.. If you struggle installing and configuring swift, I suggest you check our videos.

I'm using the Alpha version but it keeps reporting the wrong altitude at times almost 2000ft. Is anyone experiencing the same issue ?

Yes, this is a known bug with X-Plane 12. We are currently testing a new version that has taken care of this bug and are waiting for some fine-tuning and then its release.
