    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 we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Steve, this is my best reference to your fabric question.

Keep in mind that some of the early or later versions may have been different but the B/C models are represented here. This may have also varied based on intended destination or leasee.

EDIT: Added aileron pic

Man! You guys rock! Thank you, Milton and Ted, so much for your help. The key, I think, will be to make the effect very subtle to the point of almost undetectable.

BTW, panel lines are done and will have a couple days for rivets before heading out for a long weekend with friends.

Thanks again,

Steve
 
Checkout John Terrell's paints on his mustangs for difference between a fabric covered surface and metal surface. He did a great job. You could do it by having no bumps other than corrugated part and adjust the specular for subtlety. You're a great repainter, you'll nail it Duckie!

Hey Rick, thanks. I keep a couple of JT's textures handy for reference, as all as a few others, including some who have posted in this thread! The talent, generosity, knowledge, and attitudes on this forum are second to none!

Cheers

Steve

Great resource indeed. Thanks for the reminder Ted. I believe I have that very issue of Air Power. Now, to find the right box its stored in.

The parts manual or an erection and maintenance manual. What treats they would be.

Unfortunately (and unusual), I have neither for this aircraft. I do have two other excellent pilot manuals but neither discusses the surface characteristics.
 
beautiful indeed!
Regarding the fabric vs metal discussion, this comes from the pilot training manual:

Wow! I am Gobsmacked! Awesome work there Sir :applause:

All the interior templates were in the original FSX release, fsxb26native.zip in the "2048 templates for interior" folder.

Let me know if you have any questions.
 
B26

Rather than starting a new topic related to Installing the B26 FSX Native Marauder base model and Version 1.1 and Version 1.2. I thought I'd ask my questions here about the install.

I do now have the required base model version 1.0 installed. I did notice in this download. There are two other folders 2048 templates for exterior, and 2048 templates for interior. I'm assuming these folders are for airplane painters use?. I'm not an airplane painter Therefore I didn't do anything with them. All I installed was the required base model V1.0.


I'm now currently looking at the download files of the required version 1.1 of the B26. I'm currently looking at the FSX installation procedure doc. of version 1.1 of this model. I'm scratching my head on this one. I'm not sure how to do the step 2 and step 3 and 4 properly reading the readme instructions, so I don't mess it up?. I'd like to get some assistance on this. it's kind of over my head being savvy, at what I'm reading and doing so to speak. I'll probably need a lot of help with this version, no dought etc.


I did also download the required the Native b26 required version 1.2 to be installed. I'm pretty sure I can handle this version, once I get version 1.1 figured out and under my belt.
