• 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.

C++ Code writer needed

I am looking for a C++ writer to write me a code for a project.
I am willing to trade or pay for your services.

DG:D
 
I need a payload manager with a default page that can be used for more than one project. Most likely it's for future projects.
 
C++ is really overkill for such project, I suggest doing it in .NET, using C# or VB, I write C++ fluently without any problems, but would definitely use C# for this kind of work, it's a way faster developing/debugging time.

In addition to what Umberto said: or even XML if it's a gauge.

No, XML would not be able to handle modifying the aircraft.cfg load stations since it has no file read/write capability.

Correct, but I was assuming more of a simple model visibility standpoint.
 
I might be able to do this myself!

Hey guys, i can write in VB no problem.

Here is a sample of my work. http://flysim.us/website/Tools.html

So how do you compile the VB to rewrite the CFG. Bill and i both knew XML would not work. So based on my old work I can write ok, but have no clue on
how to communicate with and update code to the aircraft.cfg.

I figure you need to add a special code that will update when a user clicks finish!
And the other code will re write the payload section of this cfg.....

So please help with any samples on how VB might work......:confused:

let's say i use VB and want a panel window to open rather than a VB window on your desktop. How do we make a window for fsx panels.

Of course i know how to make a panel work, but not a VB program?
 
This is the code Jon (scruffyduck) uses to find the FSX path in ADE:

scruffyduck said:
This is how ADE does it in C#. This is for FSX - there is another for FS9 that I will leave you to figure out if you need it ;)

It is set up as a static read only property but you could change it to a method of course...

Code: 
/// <summary>
        /// Accessed the registry to find the current path to FSX
        /// </summary>
        /// <returns>Returns path to FSX or empty string if not found</returns>
        public static string FsxPath {
            get {
                //return string.Empty;
                string path = string.Empty;

                RegistryKey key =
                    Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(
                        @"Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0");
                if (key != null) {
                    if (key.GetValue("SetupPath") != null) path = (string)key.GetValue("SetupPath");
                }

                key = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\flight simulator\10.0");
                if (key != null) {
                    if (key.GetValue("SetupPath") != null) path = (string)key.GetValue("SetupPath");
                }

                return path;
            }
        }

Thanks ollyau,:)

This looks perfect the moment i saw it. It uses the registry link close to my exe program. I will do some testing today and see what i can do from here.

Quick question: Should i use a windows form or a class library to start new project?

Will update soon!
