• 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.

    Time to Retire

    Well the title says it all. I have been working on flight sim and especially ADE since around 2006. Now is the time to set aside these things. My private life with my family needs to take first place. I want to thank everyone over the years who have used my software and contributed to it's...

    ADE Cannot Download Airport Design Editor

    A number of people have reported a problem downloading ADE - on clicking the link nothing appears to happen. This is most likely when using Chrome. Chrome will stop the download of files that it thinks may be risky. ADE is not risky and downloads are checked for malware before uploading...

    As you may have seen we seem to be getting spammed by a Chinese member or bot. We are aware of the issue but appreciate you reporting anything that you see. We are looking at whether this is a member using the regular join route or a bot of some sort

    P3D v5.0 SDK

    I am looking for the SDK for the v5.0 version of P3D. I have cleared out rather too well and lost the installer for that version which I would like to have as a baseline for XML schema changes. SDKs are free to download so I don't think there is any problem with sharing this. Thanks in advance
