• 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.

FSX Throttle Control Example

Hello All. I am just getting started with the FSX SDK so mostly I have just been playing around with the examples. I have the SDK installed and I have been compiling the examples in Microsoft Visual C++ 2010. I played around with the Cockpit Camera example and got it to interface with a microcontroller I have to let it control the camera. It worked great, so I figured I would take another one of the examples and try to modify it as well.

I started trying to work on the Throttle Control example, and found that though it compiles and runs. It has no effect in game. When it starts up, it is supposed to get the current throttle position and echo it to the console. All it echos is "Received:2". I tried the precompiled exe that came in the example folder and the same thing happens.

When I run the application from Visual C++ in debug mode I get a bunch of warnings that the application fails to open DLL's. I could paste a list of them here if it would help.

I thought I followed the install instructions closely. All the versions match up, and the tools menu shows in game (though I have not used it for anything). Not sure what I missed that is making it fail to find all those files.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
