Mowgli22 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Hi; I took the plunge and installed FSX Gold plus the Acceleration pack. All seems fine and I would like to know if installing the SDK is necessary if I only wish to install addon scenery, Aircraft , and other freeware or Payware products. I can't seem to find SDK anywhere and won't bother looking if I don't need it. Thanks, David If this is not the correct place to post please direct me to the proper forum Corsair 4000X RGB Mid-Tower ATX, CORSAIR RMx Series (2021) RM650x, GIGABYTE B550 AORUS ELITE AX V2 Gaming Motherboard , AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core/16-Thread 3.8GHz base, 4.7GHz, GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3070 GAMING OC 8G, CORSAIR H115i ELITE CAPELLIX Liquid CPU Cooler, CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro SL 32GB (2x16GB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I don't think the SDK will be of use to you if you are just going to do what you stated. I don't have Deluxe or Acceleration, so I am NO authority on the SDK, but have you looked under ADDONS in the Menu? http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=SDK_Installation_%28FSX%29 Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

lnuss Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 The SDK isn't necessary for the uses you mentioned, but it must be separately installed from the disk if you want it on your computer. It IS needed for many things, such as use of ADE or other programs where you build your own stuff. Larry N. As Skylab would say: Remember: Aviation is NOT an exact Science!

JSkorna Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 David, 1. It is not automatically installed. It is still on your FSX disks. 2. You will probably never need it. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli22 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 Thank you Mr. Zippy and Inuss. That pretty well covers it all. I'm not a developer in any shape or form so onwards and upwards.
