  • 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.

I'm really close....

I think I may just use 2020 for a while and check back in with 2024 at some time in the future to see if it gets any better.
this is the boat I'm in too - until 2024 becomes a working flight sim someday
 
After two days of fumbling about I have finally got my hardware set up. The first few times I tried to actually load a flight I was just sat watching a spinning loading icon for 20 minutes and had to crash out. Finally got in and flew the Beaver out of Vancouver Harbour seaplane base - so disappointed with the graphics there.

Second flight was out of local airport and over the local town of Sevenoaks here. In MS2020 I could see our cricket ground and even individual cut pitches. Today it was just a scrub land with a few trees dotted where there are none..

Knole house is a huge stately home in hundreds of acres of deer park just beyond the cricket ground. In the sim today it was a huge grey airport terminal building.

The main M25 London circular 6-lane motorway is a blurred grey tape dotted with blurred static vehicles with lots of blurred fast moving vehicles zooming over the top of them.

Thinking "what have I done here".

New year tomorrow so I start with an open mind but with a finger hovering over the uninstall button !!
