    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.

New Carriers..?

Looking around at various sources I don't think she's complicated below the WL Andy,

I got this from a 3D model...

There are other views on that same site. Of course, some of it is conjecture as we won't know what the welders got up to in the shipyard - but I think that's a fairly good assessment of what the general BWL architecture is.

Also today I have been wondering if the screens could be coded to be some sort of contextual Menu for AiCarriers, etc.

They could display Wind/ Speed.
AI A/C about to TO/ AI A/C traffic in the vicinity.
TacPack enabled for something...etc,
Basically, what they appear to be doing RW.

(Still low res version)

Seahawk, Would you mind sharing your Liaoning repaint, your version looks like a nice upgrade from the standard version.

Cheers,
Randy

I thought to try a little cleanup on the "Liaoning". Using existing textures the rust went away, then based on current photos
the deck layout was changed. I know she is a darker shade of gray then the real ship but wanted to say thanks to Bear.
Shared texture mapping prevents adding all the small stuff to give it realism, still definitely a fun carrier.
 
Found a model of the Kiegsmarine KMS Graf Zeppelin some time ago on the library of sketchup side. Just change some things and get it to work in FSX now. Placed some Stuka and Me-109 on her.
I`ve decided to do many other things on that ship ( put a hard deck to it, doing a new repaint and will do some more details to let her look more real). If i can contakt the orignial developer i will ask him for his permission to share it as freeware if i will it get ready in future.

Till now that`s the look ....

Lot's of ship building going on!:applause: Excellent! Been waiting out the weather, finishing up some soviet sea monster conversions, decided I needed a garage for Tim's old Almaz Kalmar (LEBED) LCAC. Now I need an AIST to round out the lot...
Finally made the Orlenok export and not crash the sim...needed the Lun...then I needed a SUNBURN...then the LEBED had to get done...then an AI version so I could 'liberate' small Baltic countries...I suppose I need a decent BTR or Bytor, now. Once you start, it never stops.
