    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.

Anyone using both ORBX and PIS PNG scenery?

Hello,

I'm just wondering if anyone has experience running both the Pacific Islands Simulations "Extreme Bush Trekker" scenery with the ORBX Tapini and/or Port Moresby packages.

I picked up the PIS scenery a while back, but before installing it I discovered the ORBX packages and started having so much fun I never got around to installing the PIS stuff, then my interests wandered elsewhere - squirrel! - and now I'm back to the PNG bush and wanting to try the PIS stuff too.

I'm specifically wondering about the airports where there is coverage overlap like Tapini, Fane, Ononge, Woitape; and also about the mesh the PIS package comes with. My guess is I'd like to keep the ORBX renditions of these strips, and probably the ORBX Holgermesh for PNG... so can I run the PIS scenery without screwing that up? I'm thinking as long as I run the PIS stuff in layers below the ORBX layers this oughta work?

Sure, the easy answer is to just try it; I just recently finished a time consuming repair of FSX though, and that was necessitated by removing a simple add on.. I'd rather not break anything else. If anyone has experience here, I'd be interested. Thanks...
 
Hi
I think there was an instruction written on how to run the two alongside one another but I cant remember its exact location.

I am pretty sure it was on the orbx forum.

Cheers chris
 
Thanks, got it bookmarked. Fwiw I had to sign in with my own account to view the thread so I don't think you had to worry, but better to be safe. Thanks again!
