    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.

Problems with Harpoon Download

Hi Folks,

I hope someone out there can help me. I've been happily downloading some of Milton's incredible work for FSX such as the B26, AT11, Ventura and Harpoon Fire bomber, with no problem at all. Before the Ventura, I down loaded the Harpoon, which appeared to down-load O.K. but when a thumbnail was selected, a pop-up appeared "Initialization Failure". this has happened with all the thumbnails, and if the "Details" box is selected it appears blacked out. I've un-installed, including items in the Effects Folder, downloaded, and re-installed several times, with the same result. All the aircraft appear under PV2 Harpoon on the select aircraft menu, and on the computer, under "Aircraft " when PV2 Harpoon is selected, all appears normal! When I downloaded the Harpoon Fire Bomber, there was no sound, but when I re-installed the PV2 Harpoon, the sound returned to the Fire Bomber. I am a computer idiot, so any suggestions or help please.
 
The fire bomber aliases the sound from the PV2 Harpoon. You can easily copy the sound folder from the Harpoon and paste it to the fire bomber folder.

Don't know why about the initialization error with the Harpoon.

I remember your original post in the Harpoon, Ventura, etc thread. I also have FSX plus the 2 SPs and no problem with the Harpoon.
