  • 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.

ORBX Airport Maps - Freeware and Payware update

The only thing I may recommend (and this is the greedy perfectionist in me :) ) is to make the payware pins in the combined map a different color for easy differentiation.
 
Is there any way I can edit the first post of this thread to update KMZ file link? It won't let me edit it.
 
Is there any way to install those freeware packages into some "dummy" folder (first and then copy them one by one to FSX)? I tried to install one package but din't want to install all airports inside it. However there was no option to choose where to install or what to install. I don't like any program to blindly install anything into my FSX - particularly sceneries.

They all go in one specific folder. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\ORBX\FTX_GLOBAL\FTX_FTXG_AIRPORTS/SCENERY
 
Thanks. I just wanted to install some fw sceneries in those packeges. I don't have Orbx main products - yet. Perhaps I don't even buy them for FSX. Have been thinking of moving to P3D.
 
Hi Friends,
A "silly" question :
Since I installed ORBX packages (Vector and Central) ALL my older (and newer) effects (lights, smokes, water sprays and so on) were transformed in BLACK clouds and squares .....
Any suggestion ?

Given how useful I've found your initial maps, let me now thank you doubly for providing this update, Lonewolfee. :ernaehrung004:
