    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.

Creating Slingloads in fsx se

Hi all

I'm new to the forum so let me start by saying hello
I have being simming since fs2000. My current sim is fsx se.
I have built a full scale MD500E simulator (my favourite helicopters) with T shape instrument panel and dual controls using authentic MD500 flight controls .
I'm trying to breathe some life into my fsx se and my helicopter cockpit by adding liftable objects. I have looked at the early Slingloads in the Sandbox liftable missions which was done along time ago
I have object placement tool installed and working and I have built a small heli base

I found an old post regarding*Slingloads here at SOH* and in the post it mentioned* the following method

There are four basic steps:

[1] Select an FSX 'liftable' object from the fsxp mission objects*HERE. Typically these have a hook 'eye' for lifting such as the MIS_top_secret_crate.

[2] Place the object using Object Placement Tool' and save as a 'Mission'.

[3] Save your flight where you'd like to start from to pick up the load and

[4] Equip your Helo with a sling by editing the saved flight file.

I have followed the instructions and I have a xml file that appears when I save as mission but I can't get it working and not sure if I have missed a step

Regards

Rhys
