    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.

SSW F-104 mania

hschuit,

Just a quick notification regarding texture pack SSW_F-104G_2502, I was getting black textures and went to check the texture cfg file for the pack and found this:


[fltsim]
fallback.1=..\texture.cockpit.common.FB
fallback.2=..\texture.cockpit.common.GAF
fallback.3=..\texture.cockpit.common.CONS
fallback.4=..\texture.cockpit.common.MAP
fallback.5=..\texture.external.common.GAF
fallback.6=..\texture.external.common.MAP

When changed to this, everything turned out okay:

[fltsim]
fallback.1=..\..\..\SSW-FRF-104G-TEXTURES\CONSORTIUM\texture.2502
fallback.2=..\..\..\SSW-FRF-104G-TEXTURES\CONSORTIUM\texture.cockpit.common.fb
fallback.3=..\..\..\SSW-FRF-104G-TEXTURES\CONSORTIUM\texture.cockpit.common.gaf
fallback.4=..\..\..\SSW-FRF-104G-TEXTURES\CONSORTIUM\texture.cockpit.common
fallback.5=..\..\..\SSW-FRF-104G-TEXTURES\CONSORTIUM\texture.external.common.gaf
fallback.6=..\..\..\SSW-FRF-104G-TEXTURES\CONSORTIUM\texture.external.common

StormILM, thanks for finding this mistake - I re-uploaded the ZIP file with the correct texture.cfg :applause:

Glad to be of help to a fellow simmer! Forgive me not saying this before, your two paints are a magnificent addition to the F-104G!:applause:
 
Is there a repaint available in the low viz overall grey scheme of the freeware F-104S somewhere?

Dumonceau

Way back I did a a 9° Stormo 10° Gruppo bird which was based on a Cloud9 FS9 repaint by Andrea Arlotti. It is only 1024 pixels, quality is not up to today's standards...

NASA birds

Have any NASA schemes been done for this SSW bird? I looked in the usual places, to no avail.

Whether the old mid 60s era ....

.... or newer (70s) era:

Sorry, not NASA... The mania continues with 26+07 (Jagdbombergeschwader 36, based at Rheine-Hopsten AB, 1974).

Someone fancy doing 20+36 of JBG32, as she was at Lechfeld in April 1984?

A very nice scheme of blue, light blue and white with the Bavarian diamond tail.

Or this one?
