    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Like it, great EYE CANDY Thnx all; for It!! NICE!! Its in My hanger..with its Paints....Never flown this.Was wondering the Sluggish Take offs Land and Water?..Other wise like it at YELLOW KNIFE.............

 
Reduce the fuel load a bit or put the co-pilot on a diet. It's a whopping 4 pounds over maximum take-off load restrictions. She'll hop of the runway nicely then.

Water Effects...?

Is anyone else having problems with lack of water effects..?
I can get the tanks to load and then dump but no drop is shown. I double
checked that the effects were copied over to the correct FSX folders.
I can also get the tanks to fill while in flight multiple times and that the water tanks empty in
one go not in 4 available stages like the earlier 415.

I think the VC and panel work done is great and the modeling and texturing of the aircraft
is superb.

I read this over at Flightsim. Maybe it will help:

Beautiful aircraft, but in aircraft cfg you must change smokesystem to THIS in order to see the water drop (first opening the bay doors in VC, of course):

[smokesystem]
//Long.Lat,Vert.

smoke.0 = 1.30, -3.00, -11.80, fx_CL415waterdrop_6sec.fx
smoke.1 = 1.30, -1.30, -10.80, fx_CL415waterdrop_6sec.fx
smoke.2 = 1.30, 1.30, -10.80, fx_CL415waterdrop_6sec.fx
smoke.3 = 1.30, 3.00, -11.80, fx_CL415waterdrop_6sec.fx

Thanks, you beat me too it by about a minute...lol
I ended up renaming the effects and it works fine now.
 
Not really a true FSX'er. It still has the prop/cloud issue sadly.

My Seafury has that problem too, but the "fix" is much better than the prop disc it comes with.

Rules of the Air #5: Any astute airplane driver knows to stay away from clouds. That silver lining that everybody talks about might just be another airplane in there. Also, mountains have been known to hide out in clouds."

Sorry... I just saw the opportunity and had to take advantage of the situation. :biggrin-new:
