Razgriz:
I MAY be able do some avionic work, I'm learning Visual Basic 2008 at school and I'm #1 in the class. I don't find it hard really, its just knowing your stuff and problem solving skills combined with knowledge of the coding language. I'm hoping Virtuali gives me an answer if C++/VB.NET can be used, or only C++.
Orion:
I'm pretty sure gauges are only either C++ or XML.
You can make a SimConnect addon in VB.NET, though.
Razgriz:
You can always convert VB.NET to C++, but that is bound to cause problems.

Hurrah, a subject I know more about than the local gurus for once. C++ is nothing like Visual Basic, for what it's worth. It's probably the hardest mainstream language to become reasonably competent in, and unequivocably the hardest language to become a guru in. C++ meta-template programming can cause brain damage.
Or, for an aviation-themed metaphor... C++ is to programming as a carrier landing is to general aviation ;-)
Forgot my point. Oh, yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade... This thread has inspired me to put FSX on my dev laptop so I can get acquainted with the SDK whilst I'm on holiday next week.
And how about this for a random offer... I'll donate an hour of C++-FSX-SDK-fu for every critique I get on my recently uploaded FSX/Superbug carrier pattern (it's the best pattern I've flown against my current standards so I'm looking for more experienced folk to rip it to pieces so I can re-set my standards a little higher):
skimmer:
Thanks Sludge.
