    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.

The two Green Mtn Avionics hangars are sheathed in plywood and strapping and stained red. The bifold doors are white corrugated metal.
 
Sketchup Textures

Ed,

In "Sketchup Textures" you can get free downloads of damaged or patched concrete that you can add and then create the areas like they appear in the real photos. I have in the past also added them to the gp textures in ADEx and used them. Sometimes they work better in Sketchup though.
 
See you finished and posted this Ed. Apologies for not piping up earlier but this is an airport I frequent in FS a lot and its great you have done your magic on this one. Thanks very much!
 
WOW! As the guy who took the shots for this project. All I can say is Wow. You really captured the "Feel" of Middlebury.
Glad you like it Brian! I plan on doing an "enhanced" update package with people and grass in a few days for anyone who wants it. Sometimes the grass and people adds a bit more fps hit for those with older 'puters.

Glad it's an airport you frequent. . .enjoy your flights in and out of Middlebury!
 
Might just be my setup but I am getting some hangar floor flickering... Maybe the open door hangars need to move up vertically a hair?
 
Great scenery. People and grass working well. I too have one hangar floor with a shimmer and looks like another missing a texture?

Sorry Brian, actually I do that as a part of the placement (raise it slightly until I see the entire floor, without the ground showing through). The hangars that are open normally have a solid floor (auto_platform in MCX) so that if you taxi into the hangar the wheels don't sink. I don't think that should have any affect on the shimmer though.

That hangar is part of the "2020_Misc_Hangars.bgl" and I included only the textures for that hangar rather than the 10 or so that are actually part of that library. I'll check on it.
 
Well, it seems I did not include "both" hangars textures so I am going to pull the remaining textures necessary and make them available. I apologize for the oversight.
