  • 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.

The Bulldog is out of the kennel

As regards the Gulfhawk, I'm afraid not, that is a Just Flight exclusive product.:engel016:

No worries, all tongue in cheek - it’s just a pity that every time an offer like this is made I somehow seem to already own the bonus. Lol. For those on the fence get down and make the buy - that Grumman is carrier qualified and a beauty all by itself, getting it and the Bulldog for that price is a great deal.
 
How disappointing... the installer won't work. I've let JF know with a support ticket but I've been itching to try this out but it will have to wait.

The dogs been a bad boy and put back in the kennel for now:friendly_wink:

Same with the one I purchased from FSpilotshop cos I could not find the just flight one.I also swore I would never deal with pilotshop again due to their fee for refreshing downloads.Ticket submitted.

Cheers Chris
 
Bought, downloaded and installed without a glitch. From JustFlight I might add.

Has anyone succeeded with the download from FSPilotShop? Mine has a texture fault and won't install. Raised a ticket both with them and AH and am waiting... Still, I got my free F3F.:applause:
 
Those of us who bought it straight from AH went through the same thing with the first installer, wouldn't install correctly, they issued a new installer as a zip file, that one worked just fine.
 
Got the same problem here with the installation in FSX, due to the vickers.dds error all the textures are missing.
Found a work around to this issue by installing the P3d.32 bit version in an other temp folder and copying the missing textures files into the fsx folder and also copied the effects folder to the proper location and of she goes. :jump:

Works like a dream!!!!
 
That's odd, the FSPilotshop installer is the same one we use. Tested and working fine.:engel016:

Contacted the stores. If the store is using a linux server ( probably) then a file named blah_blah_v1.0.exe will have issues. because a "0.exe" is not a real file-type. Further to this some browsers - chrome is one - then dont download this file correctly.

One person helpfully emailed the help desk at ah ( help@aeroplaneheaven.com btw ) and told me the file sizes he had on his computer which were all around 20-30 mb too small once unzipped and the zip itself was 100 mb too small this pointed out to me a file naming issue and download issue. I'm asking the stores to name the zips as just something like blah_blah_v1_0.zip which is all we did.
 
Managed to get to try it thanks to the work around suggested so at least I've had a chance to use it... and its absolutely magnificent.

The only thing I find...and it may just be a matter of taste... is that the metalwork is a bit bright and shiny and looks a bit odd when viewed on the unlit side. Could we perhaps have a less shiny alternative?

There is a paint scheme I was hoping to do but the paint kit wont work with my ancient version of photoshop (6)… I was wondering if you would consider doing it and adding it to the package? It's 3 Squadron RAF... there are some that had a thinner green stripe that ran all the way along the fuselage including on the metal parts... not a roundel flash which are thicker and end at the metal... made it look like a humbug. Looked really good I thought.

Anyway thanks for such a great rendition. I hope it proves a good seller and prompts you to do more of those lovely silver biplanes from the 20s and 30s.

Is anyone still able to locate the Bulldog at the JustFlight site? I found it yesterday after doing a query, but today it doesn't pop-up anymore.

Perhaps it has something to do with problem described by Pilto von Pilto in an earlier post, which in that case means JF is most proably trying to solve the problem.

Cheers,
Huub
 
I purchased mine direct from AH and had no problems with downloading and installing. I downloaded both versions: FSX and P3D V4 as well as the paint kit.

My only complaint is the difference between the $AU and the $US. But if I want something bad enough it is something I have to live with.
