    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.

Unfortunately, I will not open the Phantom mdl

Any idea?

TuFun - your video demo-ing the AB. How do you film with the camera set on ground while flying the flyby? I am so impressed at the SOUND on those passes - just like an airshow I remember at Andrews AFB or Biggin Hill - the sound fades and drops to a low rumble as you watch the plane get farther away (and the two glowing dots of the AB get smaller). It is a tremendously realistic effect to watch and listen. Whose J79 files are you using in that video?

The cameras are setup in FSRecorder using the tower cameras. The soundset I was working on used twin J-79's with true FSX HD sound cones. I've since change directions and focusing only on P3D2.
 
Autopilot....
Am trying to use the Herbert Pralle ver .... and it won't stay on... the 'Alt' 'Hdg' and 'On' switches don't set.
I had this issue once before on another plane and can't remember how I solved it [or even which plane it was]. Any thoughts?...;)
 
Cloud 9 Phantom

Can someone tell me how to get the AB flames to show up? I have smoke and orange showing but not AB shotting out. Thanks Lee

The Cloud9 F-4 Phantom Portover kit v1.00.Ip package, the TuFun new AB effect work?

I tested, but the AB radiation angle is not good :dizzy:

Any idea?

I went ahead and resurrected FSX for testing purposes and found no issues with the v.100.

You may want to check to see if the these lines in the [lights] section of the aircraft.cfg file are the correct numbers.

[lights]

light.9 = 9, -16.4, -2.25, -3.40, fx_F4E_C9AB ;MOD, classic engine burner 1
light.10 = 9, -16.4, 2.25, -3.40, fx_F4E_C9AB ;MOD, classic engine burner 2
 
Worked out what the problem was with my Autopilot in my 2D .... the 'AFCS_Switches' had to be disabled.

Now I can concentrate on the annunciator...;)
 
Had a quick try of the latest beta - real quick - just 2 x circuits around the boat.

I noticed the launch still causes the rapid nose pitch-up that Expat mentioned a few posts ago. Anyone else notice this?

Looking forward to playing around again in the next few days. New PC is delayed by a few more days - but this plane runs 25 fps on any non-AI airfield. Remind me why I bought a new pc again? :running:

Thanks Henk, Tufun, and everyone else - looks great!

PS - Zsolt - I'm flying the wings off VF-74! :ernaehrung004:
