    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!

Lovely atmospheric screen shot Scott, like it.

G, the gondola fitted was a left over from the bomber versions, and was originally fitted so that they had a gunner which could look/shoot underneath and backwards for defence. The bombsight was also fitted in the front of the gondola. The first Ju88 fighter series C2/C6 used the gondola to fit mg's in, then with the G1 and later it was removed and a cannon armed pod/gondola fitted further back.

Cheers

First texture of Ted's new MK X, no bump map as yet, and a bit of tweaking here and there!

I thought you said you just started.... now I have to finish the pits. They are done mostly just getting the geodesic (sic) frames right they are a pain. Do love that plane. The original was amazing, forgot who did it.....hmmm (Greg Law). Need to look up on my HD to see. I get so inspired to keep on making these when I see what John can do. Yes this is a completely new mesh. Well the C6 and Rs needed something to chase.

lol I was able to port a fair chunk of stuff over from the original, and yea original is Greg Law's model, one of my first big paint jobs for MAW, good memories!
 
Double lol, I thought you had 'cheated' ha ha...;)

Absolutely why not, your original Welly texs are some of the best Brit bomber tex out there..(even used them on my revamp of Ted Cook's Fs9 Wellington model..shhhhh!). If those pics you posted John, are without bump maps, then personally I don't think you need any, seems just the right amount of 'raised' detail there?
