    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.

Read the documentation carefully before flying.

Hi,

Version 1.1 is available on the Restauravia website.

Improvements:

- fixed the propeller regulation bug
- addition of an hour meter in the tachometer
- Progressive opening/closing of the canopies via the cranks.

Good flights

It's simply because I don't know how to do this kind of textures.
So I use those of the original FSX aircraft.

Jean

To use composite textures is quite easy. For beginners: you can use DXT1 for it. (it is best for texture size).

violett for high glance/reflections
red for mid glance/reflections
orange for poor glance/reflections
yellow for no glance/reflections

You can varyfy the colors.

From the main home page, click the MSFS button to get to all the downloads for that platform. Click on the pic of the plane to download the package.

Did you say X-Plane? Is this in the wrong section?

Hi,

@TiAr:
is there a tutorial for DXT1?

@blanston:

There are two versions of the Alcyon, one for X-Plane 12 and the second for MSFS.

Here’s a tutorial on PBR/comp, I think Chris/Rotornut44/Emerald Scenery Design is here on S-O but can’t remember his username here.

Hello everyone,

A new version of the MS733 Alcyon is online on Restauravia.fr.
This version fixes the inability to exit the Cold & Dark situation and start the engine.

A few minor bugs have also been fixed, and due to the absence of ASOBO pilots in MSFS 2024, they have been replaced with older FSX/PD pilots from the MS760 Paris.
The pilot is less attractive than the ASOBOs, but has the advantage of being visible in the simulator.

The current version is compatible with MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024.

Have a good flight.

Just picked this up two days ago. I must commend the dev team on an excellent airplane. This could easily be payware. Thank you, I appreciate it. I've paid money for much worse. Inside and out very well done. I've put about ten hours in it and it's a great little trainer. Very well done. Only niggle I can come up with, it seems to require very high throttle rate to break static friction. Otherwise, once moving it's ok. Maybe realistic,?? I don't know.. but seems uncharacteristic for this size of airplane. In flight handling predictable and stable. Excellent job........Well worth the space in your hangar.
