  • 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.

Fair warning,.the Channel is quite blue, but I worked from lots of photos and tried to get the shades right. It will look somewhat different than in my screenshots since the lighting overhaul has a strong effect on its appearance.

My experience of living by the sea near Dover, The Isle of Wight, and South Devon, is that it can vary considerably according to the part of the UK, weather, time of day, and cloud cover, all effecting lighting of course, from dirty green to a greeny-blue, but never like more southerly seas, or parts of the Pacific for example. Your photo seems very realistic IMHO. I shall have to check that sea out.
WRT to WOTR scenery, I have to check around for that post on the correct method of installing it in CFS3.
 
Absolutely Stunning work Frosty ! Thank you for the Christmas present ! Regards. Scott

Ok, a real screenshot this time. In fact, night time lighting has been recently improved by Ankor. Specifically, reflections of moonlight on aircraft skins and glass surfaces have received a welcome update. WIP Shot:

All very true, but you are doing such good work, I may do some 8th USAAF missions later, and revisit BoB.
