    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.

Alternative textures for SDB CVN-65 Enterprise

Hi all,

A long time ago, a repaint pack of Javier's CVN-68 was released that in essence gave two carrier wings and a CVN-69 texture set for a CVN-69/USS Eisenhower. For reference, here's the discussion: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=2308.0

I thought that was a great way to add more options to in turn allow for more realism by flying aircraft that "match" those from the same air wing as those on the carrier.

Was such a thing ever done for the SDB Enterprise? Am flying the Aerosoft A/B model Tomcat and was curious if there was other air wings painted for that model. Not requesting it, just wondering.

Thanks,

dl

Regarding the Enterprise, not that I'm aware of. With the baked on shadows it's pretty complicated to make new textures. From my experience anyway.

I've seen Javier's Nimitz and the Eisenhower textures as a single package. I thought they were both by Javier but maybe not?
The original AI Carriers package by Lamont included textures for Javier's Nimitz to provide the balance of the Nimitz class carrier deck numbers. No new aircraft textures though.

Someone did do some alternate textures of a different cruise for the Kitty Hawk that comes in the Aerosoft F-14X package. But I don't know if they were made available.

Thanks Frank,

I've been a bit out of touch with sim developments the last couple of years, so I didn't know about the Aerosoft CVN-63 textures. I'll have to go hunting to see if I can find those.

cheers,
