    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.

F-80 redux released

Taking a break from the F-80s as I don't want to burn out on them like I did the Lodestars. I'm messing around the old FS2004 Bf 108 Taifun by Gunter Kramer to see just how far I can upgrade it.

I have had a look at that one on the past. From my memory: Among other issues, the top wing textures were also used for the bottom af the wings, which limited the number of possibilities for repaints quite a bit. I found out after I had already invested quite some time on the fuselage :banghead:.

Cheers,

And the horizontals use 1 side for all four. I knew about the mirroring from years ago as well, but decided to see what I could do with it as well. I was mainly looking to do a civilian one and came up with this before deciding to see what I could do with the old FSD Cessna O-2 & 337 Skymasters. (I keep overstressing the Bf 108) I'm still working on the paint kit for those at the moment, but it's looking promising now that I've actually managed to get the FSX version of the O-2 flying in FSX The FSX civilian 337s were never an issue. The Cessna Skymasters are an old favorite when we fly GA online and working in 4096x4096 allows me to add much more detail than was possible in the 1024x1024 originals. New panel lines are being added at the moment.

Hello 000rick000,


Thank you for this beautiful decoration!:applause:
Is it possible to have textures in the cockpit aged and used version, I think it would improve more immersion!

Alain thank you! It's definitely possible but I won't be doing them. I simply don't have the time. But anyone who wants to can edit VC textures. They are not tied to any particular livery.
