  • 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.

Really dig the bump mapping!!

I'd say that comes especially into it's own with bare metal skins but these are already fine specimens. Love your attention to details such as the sandblasted Balkenkreuz!
 
Yep, quite a bit goes into these things even after the outside looks like it's finished in a screenshot, though Steve and John have already put in a good bit of time to get it to this point.
 
There is so much that goes into a aircraft project i sometimes forget,as a user,just how much. Thanks to all the artist out there who brings us all this cool stuff and to top it off,for free. Blown away. Grateful ...

I've said it a lot lately, but this one is something special. Steve and John have done amazing work so far.
 
Mmmmm, lovely!! [insert drooling Homer piccie here]

I take it that bump mapping also works for the cockpit textures? The leather crashpad, 'Achtung'-decal and headrest look like they are using one (or is it another effect?)
