    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.

Light Smoothness

Hi All,

My sim has been like this ever since I set it up and I'm not sure what it is and what I can do about it. The issue is that things like light effects, sky textures appear to change colour in blocks rather than being a smooth transition. As an example I have uploaded a picture and if you look at the wing light effect it is blotchy rather than smooth. Hopefully someone here can help solve as to why.

Probably caused by a mix of texture resolution, texture compression and color depth of the light splash texture. Best to just forget about it before wasting hours trying to devise a combination of the three factors that works out.
