    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.

MJ's C-47 Livery question..

May I ask a question corresponding to the initial topic subject ;)

It is the 100th birthday of BEA, and I would like to get a BEA livery for the MJ's C-47 -
So far, to my surprise, no such texture found on Internet.
Any suggestion where I should look...

I know that there is one for the MAAM-SIM R4D, but I have no idea if it could be adapted.

Sorry to disturb your conversation - thanks

Gérard

oh? that's a bit dismissive and condescending even for you..lol
but then the superiority complex on display in every last xplane forum I've seen just naturally lends itself to this kind of discourse.

I hope they can manage to appreciate your efforts in a manner fitting to your expectations, Bjoern.
us heathens will just continue to scrape by somehow
 
I look forward to seeing any and all DC-3 airline liveries you care to create - thank you for your efforts, Gary

Sigh. The highest priority has a rewrite of my MITool in Lua for that bit of purpose in flying, then there's a univarsal Lua script to punish mishandling of engines, then there's Lua-based fixes for the C-47 I'm using (note a pattern there), an update to the default (Gateway) TXL scenery and tucked away in Blender is the L-39C awaiting a rebuild for XP11.
No rustbuckets, nothing revolutionary.
As good as the base sim is, the community (sometimes) tends to display unprecedented levels of idiocy and therefor, I'm not expecting much in terms of appreciation once I throw any of this out.

Lol - poor guy.
one of the reaons I like to fly the old Aerosoft Hughes H-1 is that it has an engine management requirement, albeit basic AF - but it has one...not to mention the skill required to get it airborn and landed successfully, sans tomato crop.
sorry to hear that all flightsim communities were created so damned equal in both temperament and cognition. Ah well - most artisans and engineers are really in business for themselves anyways, proving to themselves whether or not they ‘can do’ this or that. If someone else manages to appreciate the work even partly it’s a bonus and not so much the goal. Or is that just me?
 
Spot on. If not for intrinsic motivation, I wouldn't bother to spend a good part of my (unpaid) time on all that stuff. A bit of honest appreciation is okay, but popularity only builds idolization and expectation.
