  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

Did you like Jurassic Park?

Everyone in the "It's not a game, IT'S A SIMULATOR" crowd right now:

MSFS is truly the ultimate gaming/simming experience. It can be all things to all people.

With the dinosaurs, it can replace Ark Survival and the Jurassic World games.

With the sailable boats and ships, it can replace Black Flag and Skull & Bones.

With the vehicles and driveable circuits like the new Field of Dreams addon at fs.to, it can replace GTA and all the driving sims.

There's a Hogwarts addon, you can replace Hogwarts Legacy.

I have been teaching myself to create all-new pilot and copilot avatars. Maybe I'll release a set of anime waifu copilots so that MSFS can replace Genshin Impact and Stellar Blade.

And all in VR and multiplayer! It's a metaverse!

Truly the only game anyone ever needs to buy. As long as you don't want to shoot at anyone or blow them up. :)

I have a four year old grandson who loves dinosaurs, so I tried out the freeware preview version with a freeware Pajero jeep. It kept getting stuck on gradients and in bushes that it should have able to drive through, so not good enough for the grandson to play with. I wonder why almost all the vehicle developers assign steering to rudder control? You have to manually reset your yoke from aileron axis to rudder axis if you want to drive these things anything like realistically.

Off topic, but there is a good $16.99 app called Sonicviz Aircraft Manager that, among many other features, lets you save your control presets for each type of aircraft vehicle, so you can have your stick control, yoke control, helicopter, ground vehicle, different sensitivities, whatever, control settings all load automatically with the aircraft. This should have been a Day 1 standard feature in MSFS.

You can't shoot them, this is MSFS. But I am thinking about cooking a T. Rex alive by hovering over it with the Dornier 31.
