    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.

C-130 purchase advice needed, please

Post if you spot the sale as I've got a few purchases pending :)

I did back-to-back flights in the two Herks, sitting in the cockpit it's clear the Milviz is much the better, but the CS flight was more enjoyable due to the analog cockpit and the better performance. But I'm flying a beta product in VR on just (!) a 10 GB 3080...
One problem with the CS is that several knobs on the side panels are pink - missing textures.
It's a 2020 aircraft running on 2024 so not surprising but I'll see if that can be fixed.

I don't have any pink knobs or missing textures in my CS 130 in 2024. If you're using a repaint, check your texture.cfg for the correct fallbacks, missing .json files, or missing textures. Also, try running the layout.json through the generator.
 
SU4 has done wonders for the Milviz C-130, resource usage much reduced. :)

I think that settles it, Keith - thanks for letting me know.

I understand the appeal of the Captain Sim model's old analogue flight decks, but VORs and NDBs are rapidly disappearing in the sim, so I suppose I'll just have to move with the times. Milviz it is.

Thanks to you and everyone else who has responded in this thread - your input is very much appreciated! :)
 
Since there was no $9.99 CaptainSim sale over the holidays I purchased the C130E for $19.99.

Most everything I've tested seems to work in MS2024. and I am pleased with the purchase.

What does not work is the Flag and it's selection does not work.

How is the Flare animation initiated? Can't locate how. The Flare loading appears on the Side Pad.
HELP wanted on the Flare initiation procedure. Thanks.
