  • 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.

SOH Team Project - Grumman Tracker, Trader, Tracer works great ..

Wow, what a surprise! I somehow missed the development of this model. I think both these models will make a good port-over project and hope someone will take on the task. The prop textures appear to be on a Misc texture file and for the life of me I'm not sure how to isolate the material in that file to tweak the prop(it's not a simple drop in replacement from what I see). But if someone takes on the project I would be willing to convert the rest of the textures over to dds format & test them. I think this could be a real winner in FSX.
 
The prop is in the spinprop.bmp and can be edited with DXTBMP in the most traditionnal way :)

Newcomer, can you click on the overhead buttons from the default view position in the VC ? I can't click them until I move my eyepoint very close to them... :/

Same here - I use the pop-up windows to operate the buttons. The only ("essential") button that is not available as a "pop-up" is the button for the plane´s searchlight (which is on the copitlot´s right hand side).
 
A stoof with a roof at last

I have added these entries below the tailhook entry in the cfg for cat launch



[launch_assistance]
launch_bar_pivot = 11.00, 0.00, -7.25
launch_bar_lug = 11.00, 0.00, -7.25


[LSO]
LSOAdjustSpeed=0.65

Just a quick edit to see how it handles

new prop textures

Ah, thanks a lot for this confirmation. I was wondering if it was just my computer or a general issue.
I guess we'll have to wait for the FSX-conversion to get a fully working virtual cockpit then :)

To be honest - before you mentioned that the buttons were clickable, I hadn´t noticed that :kilroy:!
As I have Track IR it is now easy to "lean forward" and "click" ...

Thanks bruce 448 for the cfg entries!
 
plane is amazing !

i uploaded prop Fix just now

Is there a manual available? And also, is there a C-1 yet?

There are E-1B, C-1A, and S2F-1-2 manuals downloadable from the net.

There is a C-1A that will be released this week, possibly Tuesday. Just putting finishing touches on her.
