  • 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.

Update Douglas_C-47_Beta_V3.14 feedback and support topic

In case anyone is interested, I flew this plane in a VATSIM event last month & took some video. Not all of it was in-cockpit but a good chunk of it was. It is the v3.14 with Manfred's speech system bugfix from Feb 14th, plus the engine sound package from Mike Maarse.
Check it out here: https://youtu.be/8e1q6JcDfMc
 
any chances of a FSE fix/plugin? i really like this c-47 over justflights and would love to be able to use it with fse so i can switch to the two "center" auxillary tanks.

You could have asked in the FSE forum and you would have got this... it's a work-around.

Manfred Jahn's (Sim Outhouse) fuel transfer system is not compatible with the FSE client, the lower gauges and the transfer system DO NOT work with the client.
The fix below will still require you to "manually" move the fuel in the FSX fuel menu. But otherwise the client will load and calculate the correct amount of fuel.
When your low fuel lights on the upper panel come on, or with ver 3.214 and the vintage VC, you'll need to watch the fuel gauge, pause, go to the fuel menu and swap the 4 sets of numbers you see there. Move the low numbers to the slots where the high numbers are and visa versa, make sure to not change the total amount of fuel. Go back to the cockpit, un-pause and your upper fuel guage will read full again, which means you can now use the remaining 400 gallons and continue flying.
Copy & paste the fuel configuration below in your aircraft.cfg


[fuel] // AMM TCDS 6a2
// standard fuel tank config: 804 gal
LeftMain = -20.04, -4.0, -2.5, 202.0, 4.0 // left fwd center
RightMain= -20.04, 4.0, -2.5, 202.0, 4.0 // right fwd center
center1= -22.99, -4.0, -2.5, 200.0, 9.0 // left aft center (aux)
center2= -22.99, 4.0, -2.5, 200.0, 9.0 // right aft center (aux)
//tanks set with same distance fwd/bwd at main spar


// additional R4D8 wing tanks: 822 gal
// LeftTip= -22.68, -17.0, -2.1, 411.0, 2.0 // left outer wing
// RightTip= -22.68, 17.0, -2.1, 411.0, 2.0 // right outer wing

You must not be doing it exactly as outlined above, I've been with FSE since the beginning and have been using MJ's C-47 since it came out, it works for me and countless other users there.
 
[h=2]Installation MJ C47 v 3.1406 for P3Dv4 posted by Paughco...[/h]
Thanks for that, but the forum needs a valid registration and you have to be logged in to see the page... only problem is: you cannot register anywhere on the site...

I've been wanting a decent guide on how to get the new DC-3 into V4 for ages :(

That's odd, Andrew. I clicked on the link in Paughco's post and it took me straight to the registration page asking me to create a username and create a password. I didn't do that because I use FSX, not P3Dv4, but are you saying that registration link does not work for you...or you don't see it like I do?

Hi Folks,

I wonder if anyone has A2A shockwave lights profile for the C-47 V3.14 Beta?, I managed it with the C-47 V2 but V3 con.fig file is somewhat different and I don't wish to mess up the internal Red lights or gauge lighting, any help would be wonderful!!!

auto pilot c47

¿Hay alguna posibilidad de saber si podemos contar con el próximo piloto automático c47 en el futuro cercano? Muchas gracias
 
One question.. when I switch on the main fuel pumps, I get both the C47 fuel pump sound, but the standard C172 fuel pump soound as well. The aux fuel pump sound works as intended.. any ideas..?
 
Add

[fuel_pump]
maximum_volume=1000

to the sound.cfg (if it isn't present; otherwise change the value).
