Or wait for the full SDK... I am a freeware developer and I certainly not a "partner". And I am almost certain they will reply nicely with a "No". The way they worded it, I think you are supposed to contact them if you are a third-party developer interested in a partnership, which would then give you access to the SDK. Not sure what the requirements for the partnership would be, but it wouldn't hurt to try.

Provide a link to your work and let them decide. At the very least it would reinforce the need to support freeware add-ons too.

Just to let you know, I tried, last week with a very polite email, asking if us, freeware developers can have at one point access to the SDK. As for this moment, I did not get a reply yet.

January 24, 20206 yr For those who are worried that the SDK will not be released to the community, re-read what was written on Nov 21 2019 on https://www.flightsimulator.com/ : Quote These same tools will be provided to the community in effort to ensure the tools we use to create content, tools that undergo constant testing in our production environment, are shared with all our creators. I think that indicates that us mere mortals will have, at a later time, access to the SDK too. Siggy Schwarz

I would like access to the SDK Well I thought about it, but then I don`t think I am better than other freeware developers out there. There are so many who contributed with time and talent with superb addons all through the years and FS versions. I mentioned that I create scenery since FS98... So I believe either all of us (freeware developers) will or will not have early access to the SDK. But when they mentioned partners, I knew already that it is an exclusive club at this level of the SDK developement. And I can wait for the final SDK as I have to complete my project in the other simulator before MSFS is out.
