Hi all!.

Mi name is Nicolas, i´m from spain.

I developed a program in Visual.net (like FS ACARS) and i would like to know if anyone can help me in running this program inside Flight Simulator. With a Menu inside like other programs.

Thank you.

Nico

By default, you can't run a .Net based addon inside of FSX - although there are some folks who have managed it to varying levels of success using lots of low-level loader/interop code running as a C++ in-proc addon. If all you want is to add some menu items (assuming you really meant menus instead of dialog boxes as I suspect) there are SimConnect APIs to add menu entries to the AddOn menu.

Even for C++ in-proc addons, getting their windows to show up correctly inside FS takes quite a lot of work (its not a scenario we've ever documented or supported).

Thanks for yout response Beatle!

The software that we are planning is for a Virtual Airline.

And what about in FS2004? The same thing that FSX?.

Greetings.!!
