Am i a Plant?
Cant seem to get The SDK to open is there a Hidden EXE. File i should know about?  

[RollerBall]

Know that feeling. Looked through the SDK last night and saw lots of pics of GUIs, programming notations and stuff like that - but nothing that said ..'to do {this}, this is what you do......'

This is the reality gap between computer geeks and real people.

It's a truism - but if you can't communicate your knowledge to a mass audience, it's unfortunately of little real value.

IMO the value of the SDK to the 'simmer in the street' as been grossly oversold, like other aspects of this product. It should not have been included with and used to hype up the cost of the Deluxe edition. It should have been made available to those who can make use of it (a very small minority of very computer savvy people) as SDKs have for previous versions in the past.

Don't thank me yet. Please try it then come back & tell us if you got it working.

[TacitBlue]

I am savvy enough to figure out how to run it, but not savvy enough to actually do anything with it.

Anything Odd to You??

[Hagar]

I really know very little about this. I think you have to specify the drive that FSX is installed to on your system in the path entries to those DLL files.

[Hagar]

Assuming FSX is installed to the default location on your C: drive try this.




Launch
dll.xml
False
False

Object Placement Tool
False
False
C:\program files\microsoft games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SDK\object_placement.dll


Traffic Toolbox
False
False
C:\program files\microsoft games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SDK\traffictoolbox.dll


Visual Effects Tool
False
False
C:\program files\microsoft games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SDK\visualfxtool.dll


FSUIPC 4
False
Modules\FSUIPC4.dll

[jay2ie]
