• 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.

Looking for a P3Dv4 Dev

Hello Guys,

I was wondering if someone would be interested in creating a dll gauge that run inside the sim that will be communicating with our C# application to read and write local variables and other sim data/method of the P3D SDK if needed.

I'm currently looking at P3Dv4's SDK and I found that PDK seems to be more low level coded in P3Dv4 which allow faster interactions. I think it would be interesting if that's true to use PDK for the DLL project and then communicate to our C# application using System.IO.Pipes which work great already for some of our other projects.

If you have a better way to communicate between C# and the DLL let me know.
Attached is a sample of System.IO.Pipes in C# that we are currently using to communicate between 2 C# application and I think it work just fine for our purpose with this DLL project.
I would like to know if this is something you would be interested in and how much would it cost for this simple gauge. We would like to get it ideally within 2 weeks from now.

Best regards,

Hello,

I think I can develop this gauge for you. I know how to develop a P3D v4 gauge (64 bits) and I used pipes some time ago in C++.
You can contact me by email if you wish: emarciano@gmail.com
It will be easier to discuss about the details :)

Eric
