• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

    FS2004 Boeing 747 Classic

    Aaron: I don't know whether this will help, but could I suggest downloading the sd2gau42 documentation from here: Creating C Gauges and reading the section titled 'Understanding how P3D treats Bitmaps and Colours in Gauges'; specifically the sub-section 'This is Where it all Goes Wrong'. I have...

    TACAN/VORTAC position

    It turns out that (a) the default flight gives you eight or nine TACANs but only one of which is BandY and (b) there are no true TACANs. They're all still VORTACs.

    TACAN/VORTAC position

    n/m. I'll plant one at SNN.

    TACAN/VORTAC position

    Can someone point me towards a known TACAN/VORTAC in the P3D world please? I think I may have 'found' some missing information in the SDK but as most of my testing is done around BHD, BFS, SNN and DUB, I haven't got a clue where to find a TACAN.

    simconnect v10.0.61259.0

    simconnect v10.0.61259.0

    Make a copy of the folders and store them somewhere else. If Windows 11 update does delete the ones you've added, copying back is a lot faster and less prone to error than recreating them again from scratch.

    simconnect v10.0.61259.0

    The dll appears to have been registered into the GAC, so I'm a bit puzzled (and beaten, TBH) as to what is going on. The product GUID entry is the one that I wasn't reading, so that accounts for 10 as opposed to my 9. As a Hail Mary, try lobbing the simconnect dll into the folder with the...

    simconnect v10.0.61259.0

    Run a search in regedit for '10.0.61259.0'. There should be 9 results.

    simconnect v10.0.61259.0

    DM sent. Last thought: be sure to right-click | Install as Administrator if you have to reinstall the SDKs as Windows 11 sometimes isn't too happy with stuff installed direct to the c:\ drive.

    simconnect v10.0.61259.0

    Well, we can count in/count out the actual SDK installation. PM me and I'll give you a link to a download that contains my FSX Acceleration installation. Unzip it directly into your SDK folder and overwrite all existing files. If you still get the same error, then it's most likely a problem with...

    C64 Flight Simulator 2.0 (aka 2.1) - Apple MacOS Swift Port

    Go for it. My first FS flight was FS2 on an Apple II. A version of FS3 for the PC appeared at work but I couldn't get anywhere near it. Next one was FS4 on the PC and it was that version that I started hex-editing to create new cockpits! 😄

    MSFS24 Garmin avionics in a payware add-on — does anyone actually have permission, and did you ask?

    You really need to consult a patent lawyer who is conversant with international law. No developer here will be able to help because anyone who does try and gets it wrong exposes themselves to litigation. For myself, I write the code and let the publisher sort any trademark problems because it's...
