    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 Ed

I have been loading you New England scenery into v4. Now I'm told not to do that, it could screw up v4! I should not do that until the scenery has been recompiled! What's your advice?

I'm not Ed, but, in theory it may prove helpful for "some" add-on scenery packages to be (re-)compiled with the P3D SDK specific to the version of Prepar3d in which a add-on scenery is intended to be used.


However, on a practical basis, unless certain 'special' scenery content (such as "Dynamic Lighting" etc.) that is specifically available / displayable only in a particular P3D version is actually implemented by the developer within that add-on scenery package, IMHO, there is NOT likely to be a significantly perceptible performance hit by using a add-on scenery package compiled for FSX ...with P3D v3 or P3Dv4 on a computer powerful enough to run either of those Prepar3d versions. :pop4:



I'd suggest still trying any of Ed's FSX SDK-compiled scenery packages in P3Dv4 anyway... it won't break anything. :encouragement:



FYI: A pertinent discussion thread on this topic at FSDeveloper: :icon_idea:

Hi GaryGB....thanks for the reply. I have been installing Ed's scenery for the last couple of day's without a hitch, no problems whatever. I also installed Flight Replica Super Cub Ultra also without a hitch. Every seems to be just fine.
