    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.

We probably found the problem and it happens only on FSX/FSX:SE and for the short nose model. We just need a couple of days to test and create a patch.

I just bought it, and love it. REALLY want the international model (with the more common external fuel tanks). Really like how it flies!

I've always been fascinated by the early jets, and this is no exception.

I've finally been able to complete a few short flights without destroying the engine. Really immersive and challenging, despite some VC labels and tool tips being non-English. Helps to watch the videos. Will likely pick up the international version when its developed. :encouragement:

Haven't launched any Tacpack weapons, yet. Still waiting for the patch on the short nose model. Hopefully that will be available soon. :untroubled:
 
I can only say 3 things:

1. Sloooow throttle movement when advancing the throttle
2. Use the yellow (10 min. max) and red (3 min. max) markings on the rpm gauge to keep from over taxing the engine)
3. Idle descents are okay, but be right of the green marker RPM-wise during the approach

Again, I love the machine. However, I wish the external and VC models and textures were a bit more Milviz quality...perhaps this can be fixed with improvements to the textures.

Here are my hopes for this team:
a. They have whatever “meeting” they need to have to get cracking on the international version
b. They stay on a roll by doing the DH Venom next

if you are a Vamp/Venom lover like me, you CAN’T not be happy with this release.

Simmarket just notified me of an update for the FSX install, but size doesn't seem right and the zip file will not extract. Error message from WinZip that it's not a valid file. Grrrr........ :banghead:
 
Hello Kent,

Thank you for your message.
I take note for the model and the textures and will do a feedback to the other team members.
Regarding the Venom, it is on our todo list too, after the international version of the Vampire, but we also have to figure out how things are going to continue with the arrival of the new Microsoft Flight Simulator ;-)

Thanks for the latest update. All is well. Finally had a moment to take a short flight and the more I fly the Vamp, the more I like it. Again, thanks for your efforts. I'm definitely looking forward to the international version, as well as the Venom. :encouragement::encouragement:

Musterpilot, are you going to share that repaint?? :wiggle:
 
Hi guys if I knew how to post it I sure would

Hello,


The international version of our Vampire is almost ready. The differences are essentially as follows:


  • Cockpit completely redesigned to take into account the specifics of the English model.
  • Repaints from different countries
  • Paintkit
  • The "Swiss" Jeep for starting the engine has been replaced by a starter trolley.

Below some captures of the different liveries:
