    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.

Blast shields Aerosoft Kitty Hawk

The Aerosoft CV-63 USS Kitty Hawk that comes with the F-14 is great, as is the F-14 itself, but the blast shields don't erect when the aircraft is ready for launch? I used ModelconverterX to see if the blast shields are animated. They are, but nothwithstanding that, they remain flat on the deck. Any suggestions??

I Don't Have It But

Does the manual that comes with it explain anything you need to do for it to be ready to launch beyond normal FSX activation?
 
Cees,

I assume the Shift-W is the fold wing command. Are you sure this meets your settings?

Just a guess...

Huub, you're right. It must be ctrl+W which is the waterrudder that let's the plane kneel. Nevertheless, the shields remain immobile.

I did a complete new install of the F-14 extended. The animations work again! What doesn't work is the launch of the F-14. The plane kneels, but doesn't launch. Aerosoft knows of this problem and has updated files for it. I asked for these about three weeks ago. Got no reply...
Can anyone here help me to these files?

Have you seen this? Did you file a support ticket? https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/150096-f-14-carrier-launch-problem-fsx-steam-edition/
 
I got the right files, not from support, but from someone working at Aerosoft.

This took three weeks!
