  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

John how do you enable that focus shot with background blur like you've got a wide open aperture setting on a camera?
 
It's done using the showcase camera, and within the showcase camera options menu under "Drone Focus Mode" you need to set it to either Auto or Manual (if you want to adjust it yourself).

 
Not in my backyard!

Thank you for the suggestion, DVJ, I will try that!

Here are some last shots for the day of the Cirrus posing among the clouds.





 
This sim is going to be a bush flyer's dream. This is Manari Strip, in Papua NG. I had the Orbx version of this in P3D, but this seems much more realistic, even if the structures are autogen. There is a clump of trees at the touch down point, but a report was sent.

David, I just built a new PC about 2 months ago. Specs are:

-AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 4.7GHZ (All cores Boostable to 4.9ghz w/o OC)
-NOCTUA Chromax Black NH-D15 CPU Cooler
-Gigabyte AORUS MASTER X570 MB
-32 GB G.Skill Trident Z Neo RAM
-Gigabyte RTX 2080 Super
-Western Digital Black SN750 1TB M.2 NVME SSD
-PNY 500 GB SSD
-SeaSonic 850W Focus Gold PSU
-Fractal Meshify S2 Case (White)

Total Cost including Taxes: Just over $2600 USD.

-My settings are ULTRA EVERYTHING
-Graphic Scaling to 140%
-FXAA
-8x8
-16x AA
-AI Traffic variable but not less than 50% for everything and some are set to 70% like cars and aircraft, airport vehicles and People.
-I have Rolling Cache set to 16 GIB.

I have MSFS 2020 Installed on the Dedicated SSD drive. DCS is installed on the NVME as it requires highest single core speed and fastest loading for the map.

Thanks for the info, I'm in the process of obtaining a new PC, just curious!

Tempted to try and get a 2080Ti if I can find some money hanging from a tree somewhere lol

Nice plane. I havent MSFS yet. Is this plane in Standard version?
 
It's in the Premium Deluxe version (one of the key reasons why I acquired that version of the sim). It is one of three planes in the sim that are fantastic for back-country flying - the Cub Crafters XCub, the Zlin Savage Cub, and the Zlin Shock Ultra.
