    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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

How to get ahold of M2M crew?

Does the crew from metal2mesh hang out here? If so I have a request with no expectations attached. Would it be possible to get a copy of the Mirage 2000 model with external Alpha Channel enabled? And with the fresnel affecting reflection instead of specular? Obviously this was released some time ago unfortunately I hadn't started repainting yet! Haha... in all seriousness however, it would be super cool if that were possible? Would make for paints that have a little gloss to be possible while keeping the specular open as well...


I've messaged them on their Facebook account but haven't received any reply as of yet. It looks like they haven't been too active since about March.

Hank thier painter is a active member here, he is also the razbam painter if that rings a bell
 
Many thanks guys! It would be fantastic if this matrrial setting could come to fruition in "model.3" version update or something similar. The originals are fantastic and I wouldn't want to lose them. It would be great if it could be officially sanctioned so that paints could be released and everyone enjoy the alternate material features. Like I said earlier I also don't want to sound like an ungrateful user. The work is seriously one of my top 5 Addons and so I have no expectations. Plus im sure theyre busy with current projects....But if you don't ask you don't get ive learned in life.
 
Rick, I talked to Tim and here's his reply :

" When or if we d o a new version we will take his suggestions and see about redoing the model to accommodate the material setting with a reflection channel."


Cheers,
Hank
 
This is good news! Thanks Hank. In the meantime, there's no reason to stop doing paints for it. Hank, if you created the paintkit, EXCELLENT job! One of the best I've used. Very talented work there.

Next paint from me will be an Australian bird. Followed by by something "out of the box" .... ;)
 
The PK was done by Tim himself...not me. :very_drunk:

I still have somewhere an Israeli one I did for fun in between the official paints, maybe I should upload it?
(not to forget I still have two RDAF F-100D paints to finish....to busy with DCS projects.....)

After checking with Tim I can't give you his Skype but he did give me an email you can use to contact him with. Sent you a PM.

Yes, please upload this one.
Would be a nice addition to our hangars.

@000rick000:
Keep up the painting work. Maybe I will also start again to make some paints for the Mirage.
Are there any special paints you have in progress?

Greetings

I'm going to do a RAAF scheme, an Air Canada (moden) scheme, and probably a Qantas scheme and likely one more which remains secret for now.
