How to start off developing for Simconnect !

Post by sniperfull »

i am a advanced vb.net coder but i know i will have to use c++ for simconnect coding but i wasnt able to find a clear guide how to start off ....
all i want to learn for now is to make a simple addon that will show up on the add-on list and have an in sim menu (just like gsx) how would i start up to do that?

I guess we don't understand your question. There is an online document and if you download. There is a chm doc. No PDF's. There is only one vb example. You will have to translate a c++ example to vb. There is a menu example in Cpp.
