    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.

Just a small sign of life to say that I´m still here.
Recently I have been too busy with real life to commit any time to CFS2. A family issue which has thankfully been resolved now, a lot of work, and nice summer weather prompting me to spend most of my time off outside.
But I´m still working on this Malta campaign, just can´t estimate when it will be finished.

I think it's weird that the water farther out still has the old texture—how can I fix this? I used Uncle GT's Pacific water.

Do I need to set the visibility in the options to a maximum of 15 miles?

'fraid so, set your visibility max to 15 miles. I think CFS2 hard codes those blue/green/brown colours for far off scenery views.
I think it was to avoid asking the (old)hardware & sim engine to process to much background scenery at once, thereby slowing frames rates to a crawl (or worse)...
 
Nice US BB Pictures :)

Where did you find that water texture Elsner. It looks great!

I may be entirely mistaken, but I have a feeling that the shots by @ElsnerMarkus are not CFS2 in the least; I mean look at that water and environment shading, and the 3D engine rendering...CFS2 is much too antiquated to be capable of such graphical acuity and realism
 
Ha ha ha...we could only wish!

Looks like World of Warships, I think he was just showing us how nice a detailed version of a US BB looks.

I actually just wanted to show that in one of the mods for War on the Sea, we also have the turret markings from the standard BB :)

I also added a rear gunner view (keypad num 2), & a simple bomb scope view for level bombing (although the one on the original a/c was not very good, being cumbersome to use, which why they tended to "formation-bomb", releasing when the section leader released... )

UT,
That would work well in the new Pearl missions.Fuchida was in command of the first attack wave and carried a 800 kg bomb and had no wing men/This 1 of the missions being don.

I was familiar with the old bomb sight—I think that’s the one you’re referring to.

As for the targeting optics, maybe it would be a good idea to start a thread with links to all the bomb sights for CFS 2?

I once flew a Ju 88 that had the German sight in CFS 2, but I don’t remember which Ju 88 it was—we have so many models.
