  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

Photogrammetry project

SOH-CM-2023
I recently discovered a method on Youtube, for adding your own photogrammetry to the sim by a fellow that goes by Patriotsix. I thought I would try it out as this, my first adventure adding scenery to the sim. My city looks so lifelike now, I thought I'd share some screenshots. Canada's photogrammetry is laughable, but this makes things a little better until they get around to say, "World Update CCCXXXIV: Canada" which we will then hopefully get some deserved attention. I recommend Patriotsix tutorials, easy to follow and very personable in his email responses.

I just realized everyone is doing this and uploading their packages to flightsim.to. Never mind, carry on. It is a fun thing to do though :)

No, I'm glad you shared! Really nice job on this, and the mention of the good tutorials is helpful as I'd like to do this in a couple of places myself.

Plus my mom's from Hamilton. :)
