• 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.

Feature request: WorldObject camera

Is it possible to expose some of the simulator's functionality around cameras? The SDK references a WorldObject camera ("Used by SimConnect clients. Not available through CFG settings."), but the SimConnect API (in FSX at least) doesn't have anything besides SimConnect_CameraSetRelative6DOF. The WorldObject camera is presumably similar to (the same as?) the cameras used in missions (through saved flight XML files), which can be at fixed world locations or attached to any arbitrary SimObject.

Thanks. Would you like to enhance the already P3D cameras’ features or make these features available in FSX? If you can detail it more we can see if we can implement it.
Thanks
