    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.

Junkers JU52 for FSX

Anyone know if there is a freeware Junkers JU-52 for FSX?
I know of plenty for FS9. Or, possibly a FS9 version that would port
to FSX and still be decent. Thanks :kilroy:
 
I don't know any Ju-52 in native FSX format.

Since January 17, 2021, there's a new FSX/P3D conversion of Oliver's Junkers 52 in the SOH library here, thanks to Bulbbulb2 and InDeepSchit. It's really nice to fly again with an old favourite of mine...

In FSX (not P3D) there is a slight issue with propdisks (shadow) but it's (hopefully) being addressed as we speak!
 
Running fine under P3D v5.1.12!
Textures being still .bmp, you can even use some additional textures released for the original FS9 aircraft.
Blue skies to all
 
In FSX there is solid shadow for each prop... It's supposed to be easilly fixed with MCX like this:

I found where this "no shadow" parameter is in ModelConverterX 1.4, changed it to TRUE, looks fine. But with no SDK installed, I can't export... Maybe I'm too lazy and I should install the SDK... I still have the CDs. But I remember it was quite a pain to install... Help!
 
Success! No need to install SDK if you can locate these files: XtoMDL.exe and modeldef.xml. I found mine there:

XtoMDL (version 64bits from 2016)

ModelConverterX 1.4 (by Arno/FSdevelopper) - this is the one I've used but I guess 1.5 below is just as good or better...
