The FSX SDK only comes on the Deluxe & Gold editions, probably to stop people buying something they don't need.

The file you linked is an update so you would need the SDK for it to work.

This is what the page says & it's right.

The original version of the SDK from Microsoft Flight Simulator X (Deluxe) must be installed prior to installing this SDK SP1 update.

So you

Thanks Andy..

Man I wish they would just make that file avail. It took me years just to buy fsx.. a and now I am getting bummed out about this.. the price seemed to goof to be true.. I should of opted for the newer versions. what a let down .

You could buy Acceleration which adds new aircraft & better sceneries to FSX.

It also makes carrier landings possible.

And also adds the SDK.

The Accel adds nothing on the SDK... I had FSX Standart and Acceleration and the Accel SDK didn't work on itself. I had to ask a friend of mine to give me his Deluxe edition so I could get the SDK from there. ACES says that the Accel SDK is the whole thing, but it isn't more than an update....

Thanks for that.. save me from possibly spending more money on nothing. hair pulling time. time to cut my long hair in frustration,  :-/

Sorry I forgot that Acceleration was just an update to the SDK.
