    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.

Milviz F-100D Progress Shots (WIP)

Some stupid questions...

Beautiful shots. Beautiful paints.

Are these going to be part of the release or addons? Is there any update on the release status (top secret, I know, but had to ask).
 
it certainly looks good!
One little thing though: the rear of the fuselage seems to have a slightly different color. Is that due to the engine heat?

Yes it is due to engine heat. Also as the aircraft became more and more "broken in", that break between the forward fuselage and the engine portion became slightly less obvious. . .being even more evident when they went to SEA Camo and the heat would affect the paint in that area.
 
@jankees, what falcon said! ;) he beat me to it...

@Warhorse, so just to clarify my role with MV...I've bwen a long time beta tester. I obviously have access to the paint kit, and I've been working on some skins for it. whether or not the Big Cheese decides to include them is up to him! As far as an actual update goes, Kat from MV frequents these threads. I don't generally comment on behalf of MV so as not to mistakenly infer expectations beyond what has been officially disclosed or what you can see from these screens. I always ask Colin prior to starting a thread regarding aircraft in beta for permission to post screens....and I should add again...it's all WIP. ;)
 
It would be "stupid" of MV NOT to include them, they look great Rick, sure as basic scheme for a lot of repaints. :encouragement:
Hopefully you won't forget the exhaust?? ( just a minor observation.... )

Do you happen to know if MV will also include the later J57 exhausts, the surplus J57's of the F-102?

Exhaust petals is part of the 1% ;) Very easy fix. Thanks Hank. These are left over from completely redoing the alpha to play nice with the bump maps. Although it will be used with the Tbird scheme I'm doing...that's been posted over in the P3D forum a while back.
 
just found out that the man who stood up from my dad back in 1957,worked on engines in the F-100...i always find it insterresting to learn that a man (or woman) ive known all my life,did things i had no idea about.
 
Hi,

We are working on the F-105D as it happens.

The F-100D will probably not have the F-102 exhaust though Colin says he will consider it.

The liveries that Rick is doing will be included in the released product.

Thank you.

Kat.
