SDK Installation

Overview

The SDK is available for FSX Deluxe only.

You must install the appropriate SDK version to match your FSX version.

FSX	SDK	Availability	Installer

	SP1	Discontinued	Standalone


SP1	SP1A	Download * (166Mb)	Standalone


Acceleration	SP2	Retail	FSX Acceleration disk, SDK sub-folder
SP2	SP2	Download * (??Mb) 2007	Standalone

'*' May also be available on magazine cover discs.

If you have installed both FSX & SDK to their default locations, the OPT should now be available from the FSX Tools menu.

If you have installed either FSX or the SDK to a non-default location, you should run configsdk.exe in the SDK root folder.

If the FSX Tools menu option is still not displaying, you may need to edit dll.xml manually.

The dll.xml file is located at -

On XP - C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\

On Vista - C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\

In the root of your FSX installation there's also a dll.xml file, do not edit this, it's only a default backup copy.
