  • 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.

A Lockheed "Rounder"

Milton, I have a flap and gear indicator switch that looks like that, but unfortunately I don't have clue where it came from as I've got so many gauges in the folder.

Willy, I know they exist somewhere, but, I do not want to use any gauges without permissions.


Thanks
 
I think the flaps and gear indicator thing is a stock CFS gauge, ships with the CFS2 F4U Corsair in fs2002;
the gauge set is a hangover in fs9

Damn.. Now I know why you guys are building this plane. watching those videos from page 54, WOW! what a beautiful aircraft. I know.. it's about time I get with the program. :redf:

Hi Pete, thanks for the heads-up.

I talked with Scott Thomas yesterday who used to do all our gauges. He has the flaps/gear indicating gauge and is looking for the airspeed gauge. If he doesn't have that, he will build it. :jump:
 
I was thinking it was a CFS P-47 gauge that was included in the FS9 gauge folder.

If Scott does it, it'll really be good. When I'm re-gauging a panel for my own use, I look at his gauges first.
 
Now have the ECU sliced up for the control levers. Ready for mapping.

The electrical panel and fuel selectors are just bitmaps at this point.
 
sorry it's taking a while guys, currently relegated to my FSX Laptop for a few days till i can get back at my desktop.... will keep you posted :salute:

looks nice with the guns down the back, great Job Milton! :jump:
 
bump? what can i say i have the parts from Milton, work has started but i've no way to check it at present till i can get on my Desktop... most likely a few days away yet.... :icon_lol:

and BB...... "Yoink!" :USA-flag: *Runs off towards usual airfield* :icon_lol:
 
Trying to wrap up interior/VC textures, get some labeling done on the ECU and knee panels, added a few misc. items but generally, the model is now in good shape I think.

Scott Thomas will provide our remaining gauge needs this week coming so I can wrap up the panel.

The sounds and FM are done.

Once Matt finalizes this round of textures (and there are a few little things left to do), we can begin assembling a beta package for the 6 models.

All in good time, I reckon. I just wanted to keep the thread alive. BTW, Matt... I didn't "Yoink" your flag, mate... I just borrowed it without permission with full ententions on giving it back. But then I ran into Nigel at the airstrip. :icon_lol:

I was joking with Milton about this the other day, FM's are never really "done". Like counting the sides of a "circle".

LOL The hard work is done; that is getting flight characteristics the way we want them. :)

As a matter of fact, I am going through the cfg now cleaning up some minor contact point issues (sound types, extension/retraction times, scrape points, and drop tank settings), getting the lights right (for military and civilian models), ensuring effects are okay (changed the vclight position and color and effect name), and verifying other parameters throughout.

Should have it to your shortly.

... is born and has wings. A few more things to do before shuttling her off to the paint shop. :jump:

This one will be done to generally represent Taigh Ramey's restoration.
