• 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.

    FSX Park brake set and Signs on

    Hi, as I cannot convince FSX with any trick to start the simulation with Park brake set and Signs on, I like to create a gauge that does it in all planes. Unfortunately, I could not find any key that commands what I want. (>K:PARKBRAKE_SET), (>K:SIGNS_ON), (>K:NO_SMOKING_ON) (>K:SEATBELT_ON)...

    FSX Top of Descend Announcement Gauge

    Hi, I am keen to put a XML gauge together that announces the top of descend about 40 miles away from TOD. Does anyone have a clou which variables I could use to make it work? Thanks in advance Fritz

    XML Announcement Gauges for Flaps, Altitude and more

    Hi, New to XML programming, I'm trying to develop announcement gauge for FSX based on Doug Dawson's dsd_fsx_xml_sound.gau. The following XML syntax works with the exception that the sound does not play once, but in a loop: <Gauge Name="Flaps Announcements" Version="1.0"> <Element>...

    Read active ADF lat/lon?

    Hi there, Is there a way to read the latitude and longitude of the tuned NDB through execute_calculator_code or similar, without going through simconnect? The simulation variables documentation lists "ADF LATLONALT:index" but I can't seem to make it work using execute_calculator_code(). is there...

    L:var callback?

    Hi there, My name's Farley, I'm just getting into gauge programming. Quick question... In a c++ gauge, one can use "register_key_event_handler()" to register a function to be called each time a Sim Event is triggered. Also, I believe one can use SimConnect to register a function to be called...
