    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.

Rob's Banshee Puzzle

SOH-CM-2023
I'm having trouble getting Rob Richardson's Banshee to work in FSX. Givern the number of paints there are in the library here, I'm guessing its something I'm doing but I've peered at the folder and the .cfg file and I can't see anything I've done wrong.

When I try to load the aircraft from the selection screen there is no thumbnail and I get the message "Visual Model Could Not Be Displayed McDonnell F2-H2 Banshee paint1".

The .mdl file names seem to line up with model.cfg.

Any suggestion as to where I should be looking would be welcomed.

Thanks in anticipation.
 
Hmmm, that makes sense. Thanks folks.

I got the zip file from the front page of Rob's site. There isn't a choice of FS-X or P3D. In fact all the download links behind the pictures on the Jet Downloads and Prop Downloads pages seem not to be working so perhaps Rob is tinkering with it.
 
I just checked and it looks like that whole site has changed recently so you could be right and he's still working on it. Give it a day or two and try to download again.
 
From the available Banshee download:

McDonnell F2H-2 Banshee
For Lockheed Martin Prepar3D only

Nice new site, but will bet he is still working on it!
 
Sorry about any inconvenience caused by the re-building of my site, still got an awful lot to do!
Only the P3D Banshee showing just now, will put the FSX version up very soon.
Forced into site upgrade by my old Serif web program being no longer compatible with Win 10.
I have gone over to a program called "Xara" which is going to take me an age to understand.
Here is a Sendspace link to the FSX Banshee.
