    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.

Jahn Douglas C-47 / DC3

I have been trying without much success in adapting earlier repaints for say V2 of the great Jahn airplanes - specifically Virgin Islands Air Transport variants. Wondering if anyone knows if this is possible and if so what steps might be necessary?

I had no problem with that livery. It works well in new V3.12. Change of sim in aircraft.cfg and modification to texture files will do the trick.

Regards,

Aharon
 
I think you'll find the problem was that you were editing an existing entry....not adding a new one to the END of the list.
The only way you'll be likely to see an edited entry that was not actually a new numbered one is to exit FSX entirely and reload.
You can ADD more while the sim is loaded....but once it is whatever is there is in cache and cannot 'see' a change without a reload of the sim.
 
aspen31,

For what it is worth I noticed in the config for the Bush air cargo that ui_manufacturer = DOUGLAS. All the other entries in your config (the ones that work) are ui_manufacturer = "Douglas" that is there are quotation marks around Douglas. Put quotation marks around the DOUGLAS in the entry for the Bush Air Cargo and check.
