    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.

Michel Migaud's Nieuport 17C1 for FS9

Gents, I have been working on a conversion of this model for FSX, worked up Bump textures from scratch, Spec textures from scratch, and also increased main textures to 2048 pixels and saved all textures as DXTDX5. I also made a prop blur from scratch. Out of all of it, the hardest challenge was getting the rear-view mirror to represent chrome and reflect the environmental.bmp. But I'm satisfied with all. Here's some demo shots, you guys like it, once I get all then textures converted, I'll upload them here. Flying characteristics seem no different than in FS9 and FPS is very good too.

The sound is aliased to the Spirit of St Louis?

:wavey:

That is not my doing, the original sound package. I'm sure there ism a suitable rotary sound substitute, David Eckert's wonderful Sopwith Camel for FSX Acceleration for example.
