• 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.

It added an entry in dll.xml:

<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>C:\Program Files\12bPilot\SODE\SimObjectAnimationModule.dll</Path>
</Launch.Addon>

But, there is no entry in "Addons":

On running SODE, I get:

Hi George,
I have tested on WinXP and FSX:AC. SODE is not compatible with this combination.
I have changed to WinXP and FSX:SE, not visible either.
Then I changed to Win 7 and FSX: AC, nothing there either.

Finally, I can see SODE when I change to Win7 and FSX:SE.

I think there should be recommendation in the program requirement. It only works on Win7 (and up) and FSX:SE and up. I haven't test it with P3D v3 yet but I think it is compatible.
I can imagine if I didn't do this experiment and make an airport equipped with SODE jetway, I would have a lot of complaints that there are no jetways in my airports. My mail box will be overwhelm with e-mail!

It is good to keep something old to test the compatibility with the new things.
