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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.

Hi Dave
I am trying to install Falcon409 scenery (I have every scenery he has ever done!) I always lode the simulator, go to the scenery file, click on browse, go to my back up drive and double click on the scenery I want to load and click o.k. and it load's in my simulator scenery file. It does not work anymore!
p.s. I installed a clean Win 10 + Prepar3D v4.5

Instead of clicking "OK", click in the white area instead.

Yes, it's a nasty bug in FSX - one that will probably not get fixed until everyone finds out MSFS2020 is just too complex and re-incarnate FSXI, lol !
PS. Charlie, hope to see you up and flying soon ?
I'm currently making do with FSX as the virus thing has put my IT guy 'on hold' for a few months - his shop is closed till at least March.

Yes, my sentiments exactly. It's called being stuck between a rock and a hard place.
MSFS graphics had left many of us in awe, and the interest in all other flightsim programs quickly began to disappear as a result.
Now that everyone has keen interest in MSFS - we're all hoping they'll get the bugs out soon and make the main course as appealing as the appetizer.
Lately 'been finding a lot of crickets in this here once very busy FSX forum ......
