    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.

Helo Conversions FSX

Hi All,

Been a while since I visited you all last. I have a question has anyone done a successful FSX conversion on a Helicopter an if so does anybody know of any Tutorials they could send my way.

Many thanks

Hooky.
 
From what I can gather there is some issue with the rotor disk animations and alike I don't know if anybody has cracked it as yet. I'm still trying to get back into the technique of model conversion after a long absence.
 
Many older models are going to have animation issues, unless you get the SDK code of the model and update the aircraft this will continue.

May I ask what helicopter are thinking of updating?

In truth I haven't decided yet I was just looking at how far the process had evolved for now. last I heard native conversions were still fairly new territory and there were questions being asked as to whether or not it was even possible with Helicopter models. Still If I do decide to Try my hand at a conversion I would very much like to see a Wessex in my FSX Install.

Thank you for the response.

Hooky
