    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.

Hi all,

I have been inspired by the WW II sceneries of the Green islands, Emirua Islands and the Solomon Islands to create some basese where my dad was stationed with the 13th Air Force during WW II.

I did some sceneries back in the day with Airport and api macros, I used AFCAD for some sceneries in FS 9. I am learning to use ADE and although I am muddling through, I am running into some problems. Is there a comprehensive tutorial (not on ADE itself, I have the manual), but something along the lines of "do this first, then do this".

To make my meaning clearer, I have placed the runway and it shows in FSX. I use a custom ground polygon that flattens, excludes and masks the landclass and the runway doesn't show. It is getting frustrating so I will gladly take any and all advice.

Thanks, Joe
 
Thanks for the links Milton. I don't know why I didn't think of going there as I already have that site bookmarked. Lots of reading to do on my part.

Thanks again, Joe
