  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

. . . .Or the scenery library also. Does the Sim load everything listed in the cfg/library or only those that are enabled (checked)? I am setting up Groups in the config Editor so that I can activate just the area I intend to fly in, but if everything else is loaded as well it seems a waste of time.
 
I am no expert, but as far as I can tell it does NOT load unchecked files - but will load default airports if an add on airport is unchecked. I see this all the time when I am experimenting with addon scenery --

Thanks Mike, that makes the most sense to me, but FSX can be "untethered" sometimes and do the opposite of what you might expect, lol.

Ed,

You also have to check that the scenery cache is unloaded upon shutdown. If that is the fact, then only the checked (active) scenery addons will be loaded.

Cheers,
