  • 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.

T6 (RCAF Harvard) repaints

Hi guys, Ken, looks like it's possible for MSFS's Gunslinger. There is a texture folder, it's not overly complicated I feel, I think if the exterior textures were changed and linked to the Gunslinger model, we could use that as a template for the RCAF Harvards sure. I have been through all of the 2024 T-6 folders on my computer, there is nothing for repainters to use. Everything is encrypted and locked away in unrecognizable file types. It's insulting actually. So for 2020, yes - 2024, no. Unless someone else knows different.

I missed this reply earlier Doug. That's beyond my pay grade. I can write books, and decades ago was willing to experiment till I created VIP, but... An interesting possibility for those who know what to do. BTW on page 136 of the book now.

Hi Jankees. I just prefer the uniform gloss you created on earlier repaints on the insignia. Thank you for being so understanding.

no worries, the 2024 version is now shiny overall, apart from the ani-glare panel. Just download again
 
Hey check out this video I posted in 2013. This is my son Jack winning a flight with the Canadian Harvard Association of Tillsonburg ON. It was awarded to him through a draw in the local newspaper a day ahead of the Brantford Airshow. What a thrill for a 14 year old boy who loves warplanes! Dad may be a little jealous, but so happy for him. He's a little camera shy, his excitement comes through!

Fantastic!!! Great experience. I really hope you get to do it too Doug.... And, I just watched the video. He got formation too.... Lot's of fun. I did it with them way back in 1994. Flew the D-day formation over Kitchener. Man, that's a long time ago. Surprised you never repainted 039 for your son.

Truth is Kenneth, his generation is experiencing the sim on the console. Until MS figure out how to add 3rd-party liveries on the PS5, he would never be able to see something I made for the PC version. But, as soon as they do, I have a whole fleet of RCAF aircraft liveries waiting for him. Jack likes to create and share liveries for Nuclear Option, and GTA5 aircraft. They are very good, and he's had many downloads in that gaming circle. He's passionate about creating military jet and WWI aircraft liveries, and is responsible for getting me into Substance Painter.
