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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.

Its nice to have talented friends............
Progress............ (Huub is short for Hubert)
2005 : The FS2004 Alphasim P51 Mustang with a repaint, made on my request by Bob Reiter aka Greenhouse357
2007 : The FS2004 version from the A2A/Shockwave P51 Mustang done on my request by Jan-Kees Blom, aka jankees. Based on an excellent paintkit by John "Bomber_12th" Terrell. (There is a more detailed 2008 version for FSX).
2011 : The Warbirdsim P51 as included in the little Friends package. Model and paintwork (as a gift to me) by John Terrell, aka Bomber_12th.
And I have them all still installed!
What will FS2020 bring?
Cheers,
Huub

Wow Huub! That goes way back. I tried lol.
Hi Bob, Good to see you are also still around
To explain the difference in appearance: You had to put all details of the external model in one single 1024x1024 texture with one alpha layer. Jan Kees already had five 1024x1024 textures with alpha layer to put all details in (for the FSX version even five times 2048x2048). John had two 2048x2028 to put the textures is but also 2 bump maps and 2 spec maps. And all with their own alpha layer.
What struck me was that the model became less polished with every new version
. Cheers,
Huub

A few more mods and she is ready, great work so far.
