    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.

Graphics anomaly on P-51D for FSX-SE

D

SOH-CM-2023
I have the Flight 1 / Aeroplane Heaven P-51D for Steam. One of the variants is the Maurice Hammond rebuild done in the "Janie" livery. In the Steam version the nose art graphic that spells "Janie" is rendered upside down on both sides of the nose panels. Is a fix available for this? I'm sure Maurice would appreciate his work being properly represented on the two beautiful P-51's he built, especially since the real plane was involved in a tragic crash landing in 2016.

Have you tried opening the guilty texture in DXTBMP and flipping it?

When textures are converted to DXT5 dds from bmp they need to be flipped.
I cant help you at the moment, I don't own the plane and I don't know where that texture set can be found.
 
That is above my current pay grade, but I would be willing to learn. Editing a config file is about as far as I have ever ventured.
 
It looks upside down and maybe backwards, too. You can see the perforated vent above the wingtip and the AAF stenciling and center of gravity cross in the wrong spot. Should be on the port side. Missing nose checks as well. You can use DXTBMP (freeware) to open the dds and flip it and/or mirror image it to see if it works. If you can edit an aircraft.cfg you can do this.
