    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.

This model is a beauty !
There's one thing I dislike though: the shapes are not "visible" enough. I don't know how to write this in English... It's a bit like if the textures were missing the ambiant occlusion, kind of (because ambiant occlusion is definitely there already). We cannot see the limits (contours?) of the various shapes enough. See what I mean ?
Anything you could do about this in your repaints ?
 
Scott, are those screens using Megascenery v3?

Hi John,

Close, but no. The F-35A pics are taken over FTX Australia (NSW) and the F/A-18E pics are taken over Megascenery V2 Utah.

Funny enough I did get MS V3 Utah, Arizona and Vermont last night (but have not downloaded or installed them), just because PC Aviator (Australia) currently have two deals where if you buy Megascenery V3 Arizona you get MS V3 Utah free. On top of that you get MS V3 Vermont free with any purchase at all (no minimum). I have a lot of MS V2 so I wasn't really interested in getting any V3, but I didn't have Arizona anyway, and the two deals together meant I got 3 states of V3 for about $50 AUD. I tried not to, but I can't go past a bargain :indecisiveness:.


PS. The shots above on the same page (Tornado, F-84, and Aerostar) are all taken over the freeware Italy PR and freeware LIED scenery.



Cheers,
