    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.

Scenery Question AF2 vs AFX?

OK. So, second time around installing FSX in as many months, I have probably a dumb SCENERY question as I am scenery challenged.

A scenery install instruction says in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder to remove any previously installed AFD’s for the following airports: The instructions give examples like "AF2_XXXX.bgl,” “AF2_XXXX_DEFAULT_XX.bgl”.

Using KATL as an example, I have NO other AF2_KATL.bgls but I do have a couple of AFX_KATL_xxx.bgl files.

My question is should I remove the AFX files as well as the AF2 files?

Thanks

Steve
 
If you do remove the files you have the question about, be sure to save them somewhere in case they need to go back in! :encouragement:
 
I used to use AFX when I was flying just FS2004. . .I believe the difference is that AF2 AFCAD's were FS9 related. . .AFX came along when the program was updated to be compatible with FSX. If someone can verify that maybe? It's been a very long time since I used that program as everything is ADE now (or ADEX for FSX).
