    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.

FSX Bismark...?

I've got a Prinz Eugen and Scharnhorst cruising about as AI. No Bismarck that I can find though.
 
There's one in the file library here along with other German naval vessels. Old models converted by Lazarus. Don't know if it's the same one as in the video though.
 
There's a readme in the AI ones I have and apparently I converted them from the Lazarus rework of the Welker's originals and for some reason I left the Bismarck out.

When you say you converted them, what work did you do..?
Any chance to see a pic or 2...?

I converted the textures to dds and did up a sim.cfg for each. I used the title= name for a default AI ship and they're using the AI traffic routes for those ships. And I have no idea when they'll show up where in the sim. Any time, any place for all I know, which makes it a treat when I run into one, almost impossible to predict what's going to show up where.

I put in a bunch of warships like that. Everything from the old sailing ships to the latest US Navy DDG. I ran into the Imperial Japanese carrier Shinano off of Tasmania once and HMS Victory off of the coast of California.

Don't ask what I did to the default Piper Cherokees and Mooneys.
