Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight Software Development Kits. Welcome to the Software Development Kit (SDK) series for Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight. The Flight Simulator team is publishing this reference for developers and enthusiasts who want to customize and create add-ons for Flight Simulator 2004. We're publishing the SDK in installments, which will roll out over the next several weeks. This package includes all of the SDK bundles, including the following:

Autogen SDK

Through the use of automatically generated (autogen) scenery, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 displays buildings and vegetation throughout the simulated world. Flight Simulator 2004 creates and displays this scenery at runtime using one of two methods: a lookup table or handcrafted texture annotations that specify footprints for the objects. To define the appearance of both the buildings and vegetation that are generated, autogen uses texture sheets.

The Autogen Annotation tool enables you to edit or create annotation files for both generic and unique terrain textures. This tool opens .bmp files and allows you to place footprints for objects on the image file and to set certain properties for those footprints. Autogen then uses the annotation files to display 3-D objects (buildings and vegetation). No prior programming experience is needed to use this tool.

Netpipes SDK

PLEASE NOTE: The Netpipes functionality has not changed from Flight Simulator 2002 -- therefore, the information and content contained in the Flight Simulator 2004 Netpipes SDK is identical to the Flight Simulator 2002 Netpipes SDK.

Terrain SDK

The Terrain SDK explains how to add new line and polygonal data such as roads, rivers, coastlines and lakes to the Flight Simulator 2004 terrain system.

This SDK also explains how to add custom terrain to the Flight Simulator 2004 environment. It covers importing land class and DEM (Digital Elevation Model) data and how to texture the data by replacing standard land-class based textures or by importing aerial or satellite photos.

This SDK describes how to create and distribute weather themes for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight using a special theme creation tool.

weather_theme_sdk_setup.exe ( 3.7MB)

Panels and Gauges SDK

The Panels and Gauges SDK for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 provides the information you need to create new gauges and panels for aircraft in Flight Simulator 2004. This SDK includes the following:

Traffic information systems such as traffic collision and avoidance systems (TCAS) and mode S transponders display information and alerts about to nearby air traffic that may pose a collision hazard. The Panels SDK also describes how to query for air traffic information from within a panel gauge to allow the simulation of TCAS, mode S transponders, or other traffic information systems in Flight Simulator.

IMPORTANT: The information included in this document is intended as a guide for programmers. It assumes that you are familiar with aviation terminology and technology, that you have an understanding of the C programming language, and you are familiar with the XML markup language.

FSEdit SDK

The Aircraft Editor (FSEdit) tool enables you to:
· Modify, add, or delete aircraft.
· Add, delete, or change aircraft panels, including gauges, instruments, and radios.
· Change, play, or remove sound files.
· Modify aircraft textures.
· Alter flight dynamics.

To use this editor, you need basic knowledge of aircraft and aerodynamic terms and concepts. You may also need a Pilot's Operating Handbook (POH) or similar reference material for the aircraft you want to modify, or you can use the default values provided by the editor.

This editor does not provide a visual model for your aircraft. To create a visual model, you must create a new 3-D model or edit an existing visual model with the gmax tool created by discreet and provided in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004.

Note to Japanese Customers: A Japanese version of FSEdit, which lets you edit text using a Japanese font, is also available. (File list is below.)

Multiplayer and Flight Instructor SDK

Flight Simulator 2004 provides support for peer-to-peer multiplayer flying. By leveraging Microsoft® DirectPlay® technology, Flight Simulator enables multiple users to share the same airspace through a connection with a modem, a Local Area Network (LAN), or the Internet. It's relatively easy for end users to connect with others using this technology.

This SDK is aimed at developers who want to build add-on products for Flight Simulator specifically designed to take advantage of its multiplayer capabilities. For example, you could use this information to create an add-on application that holds races between multiple players on the Internet or on a local area network (LAN).

gmax Gamepack SDK

Microsoft® Flight Simulator 2004 includes gmax, a 3D modeling tool from discreet. The gmax SDK contains four separate SDKs, bundled together in one download and install. When you install the gmax gamepack SDK, you will get the following tools and documentation:

gmax_AttachTool

The Attach Tool included in this SDK is a MAXScript plugin that works in gmax and allows you to attach effects and other gmax objects to your 3D model. It also allows you to create landable platforms, remove crash boxes from parts of your model and attach beacons or other sim driven objects to your model.

gmax_Animation

The Animation documentation explains how to add scenery animation that you’ve created in 3ds max or gmax™ to Microsoft® Flight Simulator 2004. To use this SDK, you should be familiar with animation in gmax or 3ds max, plus understand the general concepts associated with creating and editing scenery objects in Flight Simulator.

gmax_CloudTool

Microsoft® Flight Simulator 2004 has a highly updated weather system including the use of realistic, volumetric clouds. These clouds were created using a special MAXScript tool in 3ds max that allows a user to define a cloud volume with boxes, which is then filled with cloud sprites. The gmax_CloudTool will document that MAXScript and show you how to use the Cloud Tool in gmax. Also, it also documents the cloud binary format for those that wish to create their own tools.

gmax_Aircraft

The gmax_Aircraft Creation documentation describes a set of best practices to follow when using gmax to build aircraft for use in Flight Simulator. You can create a model of an aircraft, apply textures and animations to that model, and then export the model to the MakeMDL program, which creates the format for use in the product.

gmax_Scenery

The gmax_Scenery Tutorial describes how to use gmax to create a model of a building, applying textures to that model, and then exporting the model to the MakeMDL program that places the model in Flight Simulator at the coordinates you specify.

WARNING:

Before downloading the gmax Gamepack SDK, make sure you have already installed gmax (included with Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight on disc 1 in extrasGmax).

IMPORTANT:

If you’ve already installed the Flight Simulator 2002 gmax SDK, make sure to read the document “Installing the FS2004 Gmax SDK over the FS2002 Gmax SDK” immediately after running setup. This document describes the procedures you must follow in order to run the FS2004 Gmax SDK on a machine that already has the FS2002 Gmax SDK installed.

Special Effects SDK

The Flight Simulator 2004 special effects system places emitter points in the Microsoft Flight Simulator world, which then spew forth particles. These particles can have rules of physics applied selectively and creatively to approximate a variety of real-world effects--from wakes on pontoons to fireworks above Las Vegas. This particle-based effects system has been improved from the previous version, especially with the introduction of the 'controller effect.' A controller is an effect that can emit other effects, creating a great degree of subtlety and variety. This SDK describes the special effects file format, the .fx files. These files are used by the simulator to portray various effects, playing a programmed sequence of particle emission, rather like a score of music.

Cabdir SDK

If you create add-ons for Flight Simulator, you can use the Cabdir utility (cabdir.exe) to combine all the folders and files in a directory into a single .cab file (similar to a .zip file), simplifying the process of distributing files to end-users, whether they download the file from a Web site or install it from a CD or floppy disk. You can use a setup utility to extract and install the files for end users or explain that they can manually view and copy files in the .cab file.
