• 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.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to share a project I've been working on the last couple days. [Working title "FSX Empire"]
For any developers that wanted to dive into the code I wanted to share at the beginning stages (before it gets too large).
The source code can be found here: https://github.com/ScienceExp/FSX-Empire-Basic

It creates a simple local server to communicate between FSX and Google Earth. I'm particularly proud of the math for the camera.
You can rotate the camera using the 'n' and 'm' keys and pitch the camera using the ',' and '.' keys.
The Keys can be changed by changing the values in the settings.ini file that is generated. (Next versions I want to add head tracking.)

It also has a simple Co-Pilot that can currently manage 4 variables of the plane.
There is also simple speech synthases that is ready to be put into use. (Next versions will add voice commands)
You can disable google earth and just mess with the Co-Pilot by editing the flag in the Settings.ini.
