FSX Service Pack Question

On the MSN/FSX website where you download the FSX service packs the following appears under the download button for SP1:

 

Notice: Third-party content requires VS 2005 SP1 to successfully load. Third-party content developed for FSX using VS 2005 SP1 requires the new VS 2005 SP1 redistributable file, available here: Download

 

Can anyone tell me if this additional download is necessary to use FSX/FSInn with VATSIM? What are they referring to "VS 2005 SP1?"

I can't tell you what those packages are. But they are not part of the FSInn/FSX installation. They are not mention in the FSInn section of the PRC, nor the first message in the FSInn Help forum which has the FSInn installation steps.

  • Not a regular post, but a special
thread/message stuck to the top with special meaning… containing important forum information.

 

For FSInn/VATSIM issues, please test the FSInn Installation sticky and linked FAQ. It really works!

VS2005 SP1 is the Visual Studio 2005 programming suite. It's only required if you compiled gauges using this suite.

Thank you, when my high speed connection is activated in a few days I'll download the SP's and hopefully reappear in the VATWORLD!
