  • 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.

The huts look nice, but paying nearly $45 US to get them isn't something I can justify at this point. At least the info is here for anyone that does want them now.
 
Once I move into MSFS, I am definitely treating myself to a virtual winter holiday in one of those 'huts' . :adoration:

Mind you, Cat Ba Island, Vietnam (@ 21:23 in the video) also looks truly amazing. Never seen anything like this in any sim before. :encouragement:

This is f.... great, mate! :applause::applause::applause:
 
Glad to see you got it sorted, Javis. If you are a big VFR flyer, Bijan's packs along with the We Love VFR packs and Global AI Ship Traffic from Flightsim.to are all must haves.

Thanks AK ! Alas did not get it sorted all together. I still get a CTD when i leave the scene to get to the main menu. Uninstalled all of Bijan's stuff, including the installer (which i never did get to work)but still getting the CTD's. Bummer because i really love what this guy is doing. I do have 'Seafront Vessels' installed as well. I'll remove those and reinstall Bijan's and see what'll happen.

Btw, i'm not that much of a fan of installer proggies, Bijan himself says that installing atleast ONE of the season packs together with the Islands/Boats/Huts manually in Community will work fine.

Thanks again! :encouragement:

Btw(2), any idea where exactly this is ? I can't remember and want to see what it's like without Bijan's artwork.

I was over there yesterday, didn't take any screenshots however. It's on the liist. Nicely done scenery addition.

Please do, next time, ? :adoration:

I often check in here from the FSX forum, and never cease to be amazed by the real-life rendering capabilities of MSFS.
 
If you click under the gun sight there are 3 switches the last one on the right needs to clicked to change the helmet style.

Have you also changed the aircraft .cfg to use the bone helmet one.

Not sure where the screenshot is from. Bijan uses a lot of models from base sim and World Updates, so all the rocks kind of look the same.

Regarding your crashes though, do you maybe have some older scenery that has not been updated in a while? If you do, it might be worth running a scan with ModelLibChanger. You can download it here: https://flightsim.to/file/5972/modellibchanger

Basically, it will rename any files called "modellib.bgl" to something unique like "cytzmodels.bgl", eliminating conflicts and crashes related to that file in third party scenery.

Just run the file (it does not need to be installed, just extracted), point it to your Community folder and and select "Read". Ignore anything that says "Rebuild (file count difference)", you want to highlight any entry that says it contains a modellib.bgl file and then select Rename at the bottom right. It will automatically rename offending entries, potentially solving conflicts and crashes related to the bgl files.

Thanks, ak416, that's quite interesting !

Actually i have almost no add-on scenery stuff in my current Community folder ( try to keep it clean as possible, i have a 'MyCommunity' folder that holds everything i ever downloaded and only move something to the real community folder depending where or what i want to fly atm ). Did a search and only one 'modellib.bgl' turned up. Belongs to Skydesigners NAS Midway (just saw this relatively new Midway movie..;-). I could remove it of course but like to try Modellibchanger and see what happens.

Thanks again for the tip ! :cool:
