    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • IMPORTANT INFORMATION - ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ

    Due to an increase in the number of new members who are trying to systematically download our entire Resource Library (one new member yesterday tried to download 3,000+ files AT ONCE!) we are being forced to implement some changes regarding who can download what, how many files at a time and at what speed. As the forums and Resource Library share the same bandwidth when the Library gets overloaded with demand like that the forums fall over, as we have all seen recently. It's sad that greed has forced our hand in this way but we must do something for the benefit of all our legitimate members (many of whom paid money for the upkeep of the site) and to prevent the files stored here being used for nefarious purposes. Many of our uploads have specific conditions tied to them that forbid uploading to any other site or deny uploading to any site that has a 'paywall' (i.e. a pay to download policy). Due to the number of mass download attempts recently we can only assume that somebody, somewhere, is attempting to stock up a new file library with our files and we owe it to our up-loaders to protect their files and intellectual property especially as many (like my own LDR Development projects) are made available at SOH only and are specified as such in the 'read me' files.

    The forums and Resource Library will be taken offline as of 13:00 EDT with the forums coming back online shortly after without the resources library while we work on setting up permissions on the new Library module.

    We hope our members understand why we need to do this and will bear with us while we implement the changes.

    Thanks in anticipation, SOH ADMINISTRATION

    Downloads are now active. You may proceed with downloading as desired

    The download limits are a work in progress. Some settings are likely to need tweaking in the coming days.

New Airport-Avatars for Prepar3D now online!

Hello!

Would like to tell you on this way, that just the Airport-Avatars have appeared. They were created by a collaboration of SimWare, Aerosoft and myself. There are three avatars: Airline-Pilot - Falconer - Marshaller.

The package of the "Airport-Avatars" is free and can be downloaded here, also a few very considerable videos can be found at the address: http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/117643-free-avatars-from-simware-and-aerosoft/

It is clear that the three airport avatars are not a first-rate product in the real sense - certainly not the Romero Zombie. But maybe someone has fun with him and makes him dance to appropriate music (key C).

Description: The avatars are something like fully controllable SimObjects with special animations. You can explore with the avatars the flight simulator world as pedestrians. In principle, it is a logical development of ORBX ' "BOB", a mobile camera system. In contrast to BOB, one can however with the Avatar an airplane climb and so fly to another airfield, then there again in another machine to ascend.

The animations also include the possibility to go into the water with the avatar and to swim, as well as run, jump, crouch, run, run sideways, etc.

Christian

Thanks Christian. It will be interesting to see where this goes in the next couple of years.

 
P3DV4 Airport Avatars

Hi!

Would like to briefly inform you that there is since yesterday an updated version of the airport avatars. The update includes a P3DV4 installer. In addition, a Avatar - airline pilot Chesley - was equipped with a flashlight. This flashlight supports the new technique of the dynamic lights of P4DV4. Now Chesley can perform the prescribed walkarounds even in the dark.

Here is the original text from Aerosoft Product Manager Mathijs Kok: "Now updated for P3d V4 and we included a avatar with a working flashlight that allows you to explore your scenery in pitch dark!"

Simware / Aerosoft Airport Avatars (free!), now P3d V4 ready
