    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.

John,

What your screenshots tell me is:

1) You have loaded the FSX Only version
2) The sim recognizes the installation and all the folders
3) The common texture folder is there and is recognized, and working as the common textures show in the VC
4) The livery texture folders are there, or at least the thumbnails are, as they show fine

Having said that, I do not know what causes the problem but I have not had any trouble reports from any of the sites.

EDIT: Here is my FSX folder setup and a livery folder content example. Does yours look the same?
 
PV-1 Vega Ventura Early Model

Finishing up modeling and mapping on this one so Firekitten can start laying down lines.
 
Here are a few early PV-1 liveries. There really is a lot of good reading out there on these PV-1's and thanks to many of your contributions, I have a lot of it.

Excellent details of both the ETO and PTO operations, squadrons, missions, and aircraft used, BU #'s and fate.
 
Requesting assistance in finding nose content pictures. These are the only 3 references I have. Trying to put a few things up front to better appoint the PV-1.
 
Wish I could help, I have pictures of a PV-1 I visited in my country, but it's the solid nosed variant. I can still send them anyway, if you want them.

Thanks for the offer Maty. I am basically done with the aircraft modeling except for a few bits in the nose section.

LOL No problem.

I just sent off final changes (I hope) to Firekitten for the PV-1 so its down to the nitty gritty of panel lines and details.

This will be like the early RAF version of the PV-1 before the additions of rockets and tanks came about, but after the early Bolton Paul turret twin 30's got swapped out.

We may consider a solid nose later version if there is real demand adding back rockets and tanks for it but that looks a lot like the Harpoon.

Actually, it will be the Ventura IIa B34 seen in my post # 2088 above, top picture. It's essentially the RAF Mk II with the Martin turret and militarized P&W 2800-31's making it the Mk IIa.

I will not be adding the glass nose twin 50's, but it is a single piloted cockpit.
 
little bug on harpoon

Hi! I have noticed a little thing on the harpoons and I'm not sure if it's normal or note it's the reason why i post this message!
There is a transparence zone near the cockpit like on the photo.
It appears on FSX with all the glasses of the cockpit.


Is it normal?

Thank you in adance!
Best regards!
