Question about ADE

[b108]

I am foolish in hoping and praying that I could have downloaded something as in-depth and complex as Airport Design Editor and think that there would NOT be anything else for me to download just to get it to work properly.

Foolish indeed, huh?

So here's my question.

How do I get this stuff called "SDK?"
What is it? Is it free? How do I know if it came with my simulator already, and I just haven't found it? (I have FSX standard, SP1)

Also, what is "Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0?" Why do I need this? What does it do? How do I know if my computer already has it or not?

This will also be posted in the "ScruffyDuck" forums, so that I can get answers there as well as here. I thank anyone who can offer up some info.

Thanks!

Unfortunately you need FSX Deluxe which includes the SDK.  http://www.airportdesigneditor.co.uk/Requirements.html

.NET Framework is a free download. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en

ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

Uh, that is so typical! Of course, God forbid that I get to have any fun! What the heck?!?! ARGHH!

Ok. Now, let me think of solutions. Is there a form of ADE that works with standard FSX? If not, are there ANY FORMS OF SUCH SOFTWARE that work in FSX? I want this sooooo badly!!!

Hi,

That is one reason why I always buy the deluxe version of FS.

You can get FSX Deluxe pretty cheap nowadays. The Gold also includes Acceleration,which I highly recommend.
