• 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.

Visual Basic 6 & SimConnect

Hello,

After couple of weeks searching the web I have decided to ask here.

At present, How can I communicate with simconnect via Visual Basic 6?
I have found some activeX file which makes it possible but maybe there is something better out there?

And where can I found tutorials about communicating with simconnect with Visualbasic 6 and/or vb.Net?

Thanks in advanced,
Ido.
 
Hi Ido

In SDK documentation you will find some examples using VB. But if I can recommend go with C#. Is much easier. I've started few days ago and now I know how to establish connection, how to write and read information from simconnect. Now I am desgning simple piece of soft for connecting my hardware with FSX.

Good luck

Marcin
