    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.

I'm sitting on 4.1.036, the latest, and all is tickety-boo. Have you maybe changed the profile for FS inadvertantly, or do you have an updated/modified language.dll? The later can stop it working as GW3 and SW users will know.

maybe you can help me with the profile part?...i left it on default flight....maybe i should set it to the 2004 in the upper box? i just dont know what to do with that...and i have absolutly no clue about the language.dll...where do i look for this?...and how do i correct it?

thanks
 
Mine is on the same profile as yours. Never changed it either, just got mine about a week ago, so I'm new to it too :d

As for the dll, unless you knowingly changed it, it should be okay I think. Golden wings and silverwings used updated language.dll files so they called themselves the right thing, not Flight Simulator 9. I dunno of anything else that changes that file, I just discovered this by digging into why it wouldn't work in Golden/Silver wings. You could hunt down the default file from the discs, might be in a cab file.

It is odd that the heads don't work but it tracks the lights fine. Sorry, other than that I'm stumped.
