    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.

Albatross DII enters the WerkStatt

Very nice to hear! However be careful! It looks like you are about to loose your upper wing and your landing might be a little bit rough :costumes:

Huub
 
Thanks Shawn..I need to email you a little later m8 about something too.:d

I customized the Bird,Huub. I Installed the anti-grav unit and the magnetic clamps from Lionheart's Death Glider.:costumes:

Cheers

I've modeled the early DII resevior that sits on top of the engine and some of the metal hatches. I'd try to get more done today,but, my friends band called and I've been informed that they need me to substitute on bass guitar tonight for them. With that said, my day is shot, I have 3 sets of material to learn in the next 8 hours..yikes!:isadizzy::ernae:

Cheers

I'm back at the model again folks. Got the Radiator textured and built a new prop for it that is quite a bit more accurate than the previous one I was using.

Hope you dig it.:ernae:

Cheers

Outstanding! It will look very nice next to the Floh in my hanger! Any thoughts regarding a float equipped W.4?

regards,
Chris
 
I got the aileron wires modeled and animated with the coresponding turnbuckles and started to rough in the "bungee" type suspension so that it can be animated as well for the gear compression. Here's a quickie of where it sits for now.:ernae:

Thanks guys..this thing is a blast...I'm loving all the compound shapes. Here's a quickie shot since I decided to map the lower wings and access hatches with rough-in textures. It's getting there:ernae:

Cheers
