• 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.

New YouTube channel with series on programming with SimConnect

Hi!

I have created a YouTube channel named "Zen and the Art of Software Development". Apart from videos about Software Architecture and Software Development in general, I also want to make videos about writing applications that "talk" to a flight simulator. I have started a series on "Programming with SimConnect" and the first video is now up. The goal is more explanatory, so there will be basic programming stuff in there. Part 1 takes you through a C and a C++ version of "OpenClose" (as it is called in the MSFS SDK Samples), or, as I call the first one, "Hello SimConnect".

I hope it will help people starting with SimConnect.

Cheers,
Bert Laverman
 
And part 2 is now up also. Probably overdid it a bit, since it clocks in at a whopping 2 hours and a bit, but it has chapter marks, so you can easily skip to the parts you want to see.
