    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.

Arrrrrrrrgh!!!!

Anyone have a way to contact the Admins at Flightsim.to?

This constant reformatting/redesign of the home page every other week is FRUSTRATING AS HELL!!!

Now the buttons for latest sitewide updates and latest uploads have gone poof! Again!

I have no idea why they have to change the layout constantly. Simviation has had the same basic Layout for 10 years at least. Avsim has been virtually the same since I started visiting the site! 20 years plus!

Their programers must get bonus' for how many times a month they can totally F--- up the home page...
 
If you want to check out the latest addons, click on "addons" the menu at the top of the page, you'll get a dropdown list where you can click on "new releases".

You can also paste this in the address bar of your browser: https://flightsim.to/new/

Priller
 
Also: in "Settings" you can set your preference of sim, and avoid downloading stuff that doesn't work!
 
I use the superb Windsailor, which combined with Addons Linker makes download management SUPER simple from Flightsim.to. (For instance, if I install a Washington state scenery to FS24_Addons/SCN/USA/WA, when I download the update it remembers where it's installed and deletes the original and replaces it with the new version, in the right place.

It also has shortcut icons for updates, new files, updated files, etc. But if you prefer to do things the old-fashioned way of downloading zip files to local storage and extracting them manually to your Community/Add-ons folders, here are some links to bookmark that will make it easy to go straight to where you want to and never even SEE the changes in the flightsim.to home page:

Newly updated files (updates to files you've already downloaded):

New releases since you last visited:

New updates since you last visited:

These three bookmarks are 99.5% of my fs.to browsing. No visit the front page and deal with the ever-changing UI. (That said, though, highly suggest giving Windsailor a try.)

(Brian/Mods, maybe update this topic title to something like "Arrrrrrgh, fs.to constant changes!" so that folks who might be interested in the discussion check it out? :) )
