    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.

[In Development] Hadrian's Wall 180 scenery addon

BirdDog

Members +
New MSFS developer Time Machine Designs is excited to announce the development of our first scenery addon for MSFS.

“Hadrian’s Wall 180” reconstructs the great Roman wall that stretches east to west across England, as it appeared in the year 180AD / CE.

Our addon will allow simmers to experience the world’s first complete reconstruction of the entire Hadrian’s Wall system as it appeared at its peak.

Using individually modelled structures from ovens to fort HQ buildings we will bring you:


  • 73 miles of wall
  • 140 miles of earthworks and obstacles
  • 152 turrets
  • 78 Milecastles (small forts)
  • 18 complete legionary forts with villages
  • 4 bridges
  • The complete Roman town of Coria (Corbridge)
  • Each structure accurately placed according to the available data
  • Retextured landscapes to remove modern towns, roads, buildings and quarries

The entire system is being modelled using the latest archaeological and historical research and in future posts we will tell you more about the unique partnership behind the project.

For now though, here are some initial work in progress shots.

We look forward to bringing you more updates as the project progresses.
 
I have always wanted to visit Hadrian's Wall. Been to the UK twice but never to the wall. Now, I will be able to see it virtually. Very cool!
