I've messed about with coding based on that to do 'speedbar' type readings of various parameters but that's about my limit of coding- hacking other peoples work 
One of the 'tricky bits' of coding required is to 'translate' the request packet from say udpseed into an answer packet from CoD

so what exactly do you need to be able to use the data accessed by the simhq guy, to be able to use it for your gauges ? if some limited form of data is already accessed for them to create the displayed data for heading and altitude, shouldn't it then be possible to translate that to a format that some of the gauges can use ?
btw, isnt it also possible to have some very limited 3D version of the gauges so it avoids the 3D/2D problem you mentioned before ? with most gfx cards having multiple connectors these days and the minimal GPU resources needed to display a 2 color static image i would have hoped we dont need to run a 2e pc to just display the 2e screen with the UDP method. err, please be aware i know nothing of programing, so i am probably overlooking some obvious reasons why some of this is an issue
