  • 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.

@Spook48: Like the Sabre, I think it will end up on flightsim.to soon enough.

Cheers,

Unlike the Sabre, which has had the exterior converted to MSFS native GLTF, these Phantoms are still FSX models inside and out.

It sounds like the next version of the freeware converted Milviz F-4 will have proper glass, along with a number of other big improvements/additions, as this preview shows from a week ago (screen capture from a FB video)

Great! ;) What about the Phantom's predecessor ?... I always thought the Delta Daggers were even more impressive looking than the Phantoms. Hey, maybe we've been standing next to eachother there in the bushes along the taxiway. :)


@ Shotgunshack : if you want the canopy glass back in your screenshots of the current Milviz F-4 model fly with a clear sky. It's the clouds that dissolve the canopy glass in port-overs (due to the 'double transparency' phenomenon).

I was wondering about that, Dave. The canopy glass does look great on the port-over Sabre model in some of the screenshots. So it's *only* the exterior model that has been converted *not* the VC ? Would you say that there are many gauges/switches not working in the VC ?...

Thanks!

With the phantom, neither the exterior, nor the interior have been converted, they're both still fsx models. I haven't actually loaded it up in sim yet, just downloaded to take a look.
The Sabre has a gltf native exterior, and a fsx MDL interior.

Thanks Dave ! Do you have the Sabre yourself ? If so what about the gauges, do most of them work anyway ?

Thanks again ! :)

I do have it installed, but only taken a quick look. Others would be better qualified to say what works and what doesn't.

Yes thanks for the info, I did notice that though there is a faint line showing. This plane does so much remind me of the Halcyon days of FSX and early P3D and I think as the models get more varied we will curse the lack of a good camera system even more.
