  • 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.

FW 190 Update

Not just you... way back I bought the Marketplace version (for some reason) and none of JanKees' repaints showed up.
The fix was to manually edit the appropriate cfg files back to the store version.
I've misplaced the email correspondence, but the nub of it was that ALL models would be updated to conform with the MSMM model.
That apparently has now happened, goodbye repaints.

From the discord
"you have to change all references to the "flyingiron-fw190" directory to "flyingiron_fw190" in the CFG files.
For any given livery, that means : 1) in the aircraft.cfg, update the line beginning with "base_container"; 2) in the texture.xxx\texture.cfg, update any line starting with "fallback" containing the old "flyingiron-fw190" reference; 3) regenerate the "layout.json" in the upper directory of the mod by dragging & dropping it on the free "MSFSLayoutGenerator.exe" tool that's widely available.""
Haven't tried it yet.
 
I’ve asked in the FI Discord to find out if it’s a deliberate change or a bug that’ll be switched back again.
 
Got a quick reply - it’s a deliberate change to do with Marketplace naming requirements, so it won’t change back again. Looks like we do need to update our liveries!
 
Ok thanks , Flak.
I'll go change mine aswell.
I don't go to that discord thing myself because i once asked why the tail light on the updated 109 is burning constantly and i have never got an answer on it.
 
well , I just tested it and can confirm.
It works just the way Keith said.
Now to update my repaints and upload them again. (sigh)
 
Thanks , I always enjoy not only your repaints but the stories that go with them.

The fellow who did the historic markings for the default ones does not seem to be active for a year now.
Is there a way to make the original to work. I have no idea what a json file is or how to create one.
