• 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.

What does the community want?

I have tried and failed 2 projects so far however im up for making an utility so much as coding is part of my collage life next year and i was really wanted to know what 2 things
What utility features are missing what people would like to see for p3d,fsx and xplane
Do you think it is impossible to make an tablet that can be used in any add on aircraft.
The main reason i want to start is to help the community and have something to fill my twitch steam. thank you for any reply's
Harry
( if i have put this in the wrong forms pls tell me
 
As noble as your intention to help the community is, you might want to recheck your motivation. Two failed projects, using Twitch as an argument and lack of orthography aren't the best pretext to start a project that might involve a lot of expectations.


If you're reall, reallyy desperate for inspiration: A successor to AI Smooth, using SimConnect instead of FSUIPC and being written in a newer Visual Studio has never materialized.

Remember, not everyone has P3D. FSX is still massively used. Even FS2004 is still massively used. Using something that works in all simulators would give you a spread of 6 different product lines. ;)

* FSX
* FSX Steam Edition
* Prepar3D V1
* Prepar3D V2
* Prepar3D V3
* Prepar3D V4
 
ok thanks i will looking into this and the two projects failed cause my team member had to leave due to personal issues and i felt i couldn't continue as for the twitch part im putting something i enjoy with something else i enjoy at the same time. Im not doing that for any gain just doing what i enjoy i.e flightsim and talking to other people
 
ye the community is so split. Any way for me at the moment its in the thinking stages. I just dont want to go into something nobody wants nor needs thats why i need ideas
 
That mindset won't get you far. Most of the willingness to learn or to do work has to come from intrinsic motivation and not exclusively by responding to external stimulus.
 
I have found that its similar to gambling or the lottery. You build what you think people will like, release it, and it could go really bad or really good or somewhere down the middle. The ones you dont think will do good end up doing awesome, and the ones you think will do amazing, fail... Its odd. But, if you like the work, you get over it.
 
What might be nice if it does not exist already, would be a measuring tool for FSX and P3D. It would be very good for developers to be able to measure distances and heights on objects.

Thanks.
 
A tool that can load Sbuilder style images, at the user desired LOD, into sketchup.

I'd pay $$ for that license.
