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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.

Matt, I love your work but am a little confused (as usual).
Dino's A-4 series is just entering beta and for P3D only. I haven't seen any intent to migrate it to FSX.
Do you know something different??

You mean IF he converts it to FSX.
His latest post on FB:
His prior comments indicated he was reluctant to put in any effort to convert the A-4 series to FSX due to the poor sales of the TA-4J.
Come on folks, buy his TA-4J...

Yep, i only saw that, i dont speak to dino on a regular basis, early on in the piece he indicated there was plans, however due to poor sales, for the TA, hes weighed up his options for fsx
I saw your bleat on dinos facebook page Zsolt about the paints
I will continue to post my paints here regardless as people change sims when they feel, and if dino doesnt release it for fsx because its a too much of a out of pocket expense for him, theyre available to anyone who decides on the switch or if down the track Dino chnages his mind theyre availabe.
Really 1st world problems...
Theyre there for anyone who wants them.

And when it comes down to it 'repaints' are free, gratis, and cost nothing! 
In a way Dino's relatively slow sales might be related to his choice of reseller and the niche market.
It's a 'maybe' purchase on my part but that's mainly due to the crap exchange rate for the Pacific Peso.
Purely an observation on my part.

Yep our dollar sucks, even our street hookers are rejcting it insisting the Euro or USD.
Theres so many new or upcoming releases and sales that are going to have to wait. Me personally i rejected Dinos offer for a free version in leiu and did the paints for free. Now i have to wait a few more weeks until after the family holiday to purchase it.

I'll see what I can do for the FSX version... technically, the export is not too difficult (and easier than the TA-4, as there is not backseat geometry to clean)... but there is a lot of work related to a product release, including, for one, file updates and mainteinance.The sales for the TA-4 project have been very low... the P3D version sold about 50% of what I expected, and the FSX version sold just 66 copies (of which 10 were free copies for friends/press/etc.)... so, a lot of work for a very small group of people. The whole FSX TA-4 project profit was about 500 euros so far... so, frankly, if it did not disrupt the sales of the P3D version, in hindsight it would have been better to release it as freeware... at least many more people could have enjoyed it.The only thing I can promise for A-4 single seat FSX is to try exporting it during my Christmas vacations...and see if how long it would take to do it.
