    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.

Some WIP shots. Still have autogen to beef up, elevations to correct, color adjustments to make and objects to build. I am not able to test in base FSX or non-Orbx sims. Orbx is all I have so everything is colored and placed based on Orbx FTX Basic and Vector Landclass. I used to lament having to build airports that looked great in basic FSX (but not in Orbx). . .Orbx was making it difficult to create scenery because it had to also come close to their textures which were far more vibrant. Now that's all I use because there isn't anything better, more realistic (that includes detailed placement of autogen), more visually appealing.

The satellite photoreal texture exactly matched the contour of the lake at that location. No adjustment was needed beyond some color work to more closely match the depth of color in the Orbx textures.
