• 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.

P3D Gauge Creation Tutorial Rev.42
Not for non-programmers but can be used by non-C programmers. This version (release 42) will be the last one. Times have moved on and 2D gauges are less and less popular in favour of virtual cockpits. Given that, I believe that after almost twenty-eight years (!!!) this document has finally run its course.

See the Revision List for updates including

- mouse functions (all the stuff that isn't in the SDK)
- DirectSound in gauges (yay! roll your own sound!)
- finding the running version of P3D

FOR PROGRAMMING C++/C-LANGUAGE GAUGES ONLY.

sd2gau42.5. Formatting errors fixed. Microsoft Word threw a wobbly when I wasn't looking and messed up both 'Gauge Callback Case Statements' and 'Where Is My Project Running?' . This is just the pdf - overwrite the one in the main file above.
