Hi folks
Well I've had PureBasic now for some time but I've only just got round to actually using it. I'm looking at the possibility of programming add-on utilities for Flight Simulator 2002 by Microsoft. In order to do this, one needs to interface with a Module DLL called FSUIPC by Peter Dowson. This program acts as an interface between your program and FS2002 and provides the ability to get and set countless variables.
I have downloaded the FSUIPC SDK which has several examples of how to interface with the DLL. However, the functions are written for Visual Basic and I am not a Visual Basic programmer. I have tried to translate some of the code to PB but there are some terms which I just do not understand.
So, ultimately what would be nice is if someone fancied joining me to write FS2002 add-ons who has a background in VB. Alternatively, someone who would be able to convert the VB stuff into PB. The final option would be to simply ask what certain VB 'styles' actually mean in PB (remember, I'm pretty new to PB as well
The potential for add-ons is great with FS2002 and there are already several commercial products which interface with FS2002 via the FSUIPC DLL. Is anyone interested?
All the best
