    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.

This is a revision of akemi's A6M5 model 52 Zero for CFS 2. The model has been tweaked with a blue/green glass colour & slight changes to sheen using MDLmat. A dull camo sheen model is supplied for these later camouflaged planes.

The airfile has been revised to improve the AI formation keeping. The textures have been redrawn to try & match the stock textures in appearance, & depict a variety of aircraft at different times throughout their active service.

The textures supplied are:

61-126 Aircraft of 261ku, operating from Saipan, June 1944

8-13 Aircraft from 265ku, operating from Saipan, June 1944

43-118 Aircraft from 343ku, operating over Guam, June 1944

320-85 Aircraft of 652ku, flying from IJNS Junyo, June 1944

The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly. I combined the OH stock 2D panel with Akemi's VC panel view, & improved the resolution of the VC view instruments.

The aircraft.cfg contact points have been adjusted to allow belly landings (thanks Skylane), & the airfile optimised for improved AI formation flight & a more accurate flight range.

The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects. It makes use of Allen's Japanese bombs, & Thicko's D4Y2 wing pylons. I converted it to read in english instead of japanese.

To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS 2 install.

Thanks to

Akemi for a great series of multi-LOD aircraft
Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+
Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes
Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps
