  • 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.

Screenshots

Nice little update from Asobo. Better wake effect, some spray, updated prop discs, and a new livery.

A brilliant picture, deffinately belonging to what, in the mean time, has become 'the dvj school of shooting MFSF screenies' (if i may say so..)

It's therefore with some regret that i have to add that i think that the 'updated propdiscs' are the sole item in this sereen and inspiring scene that strongly diminish the illusion that this is actually a real photo. ( and maybe the white foam crawling up the rocky coast)

Beautiful shot, dvj ! :encouragement:

P.S. Hawaï ??...
 
Thanks for showcasing my hometown RichardLouis. Live in Vilvoorde now, but Antwerp will always be my home.

Thanks Priller, I'm glad you like it.
The scene is well done as a whole. The port is perhaps less successful.
I would have liked to take views of the Brabo Fountain near Cathedral Notre Dame , but it is too small, the rendering is not beautiful.


I understand your attachment to Antwerp, it's a very beautiful city with a rich past and a magnificent architectural heritage (the station is a real gem!).
I guess like many of us, you built scale model airplanes.
When I was young I often went to Antwerp to buy some from Jack Peeters, at the Brederodestraat.
Maybe you knew him, his store was a real Ali Baba's cave!

Of course I remember Jack. He was a pillar of the Antwerp chapter of IPMS of which I was a member. His advice was invaluable, he was kind to the youngsters discovering the hobby abd the diorama's in his shop were beautiful!

Cheers,
