FYI I have been able to generate a rectangular overlay over the FSX screen by means of hooking into the DirectX API. I am able to display anything I want. Text, graphics, whatever. This is for DirextX9 only, at this time.I might use this method to show Tileproxy status information, for example. Or a moving map, or both. ;)I might also start messing with the FSX shaders, textures, you name it. I have yet to discover and learn to control my new allmighty powers... hehe
