    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-4J NAVY liveries

For quite a while, I have been working on a Blue Angels livery for the Milviz F-4J model. On request, I also made another NAVY livery - the BUNO 153839.
Basically both are finished, but they haven't been published yet. This is due to the fact that I will try to apply more gloss to the surface of both liveries.
I don't know if I will manage to do so, but I am trying hard to make them shine.

I have not purchased the MilViz Phantom yet, but many thanks to you for the repaint of BUNO 153839 (as it was my request!). That Phantom was indeed a ex-Blue Angel bird, and had been transferred to
NATC Patuxent River when I was stationed there. I worked on that aircraft, and had the privilege of a backseat ride in her. Beautiful aircraft. Thank you! NC:encouragement:

Found this on the Blue Angels Wikipedia page. You can see the sheen a bit more clearly - and the colour of the leading edges.

I have the Glowing Heat B-58 Hustler, and that model does not have the sheen I expected it would have either. Could it just be a graphics setting? NC
 
NC, try throwing Banana Bob's replacement of the Global Environment AC Chrome Texture into the Texture folder of your B-58 Livery in question. This might help solve your issues. Have you DL any of my repaints for the B-58? I've got some high polish liveries that would be easy to see if this resolved your issue.

Thanks for your reply. I don't think I have your repaints. Will check. Are your repaints on SOH or the other usual sites? NC
 
All of my paints are only available here at SOH for ease of use. Grab the latest versions. v3 for the B-58 I believe.

Does anyone fancy doing VMFA 531 'Grey Ghosts' USS Forrestal '72/'73 for this model.. http://www.urbanghostsmedia.com/2014/12/usmc-f-4-phantom-151477-tail-markings-royal-navy-malta/

The original aircraft is a 'B' but I wouldn't let the wrong model get in the way of a great paint:encouragement:

Simworks (http://simworksstudios.com/products/military-aviation/f-4b-phantom-ii/) has a F-4B/N version,I can't tell you how it handles or fly as i do not own the aircraft but according to videos and pics I've seen it looks fantastic (comes with two aircraft carriers and also tacpack enabled). I guess you already knew all that
 
Was this repaint finished/uploaded? If so, am not able to find it. Thanks. NC
