    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.

Huub's post in the FSX screenshots forum got my juices flowing...

Klaus' HMS Queen Elizabeth (with the Erwin Welker mods) look equally at home in MSFS as well. I still need to finish my cameras and adding wake/smoke but she sails beautifully.

Those images look awesome. Is this your model? Seeing the plank decking reminded me of a piece of teak decking I have from the USS Iowa. A friend of mine worked in a shipyard that decommissioned it. He gave me a six inch piece of the decking. I still have it.
 
The model is by Klaus Nowak as was downloaded here from SOH. Erwin Welker added mods that let one sail the ship in FSX. I've been working to bring them into MSFS for my enjoyment -- as the water and environments really make running ships in MSFS a beautiful pleasure. I'm currently still struggling with understanding effects though, so still no wakes or smoke but I'm working to get past that hurdle.
