  • 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: Time for a new thread???

I have followed the original since the beginning and have a folder full of files/updates/etc. At this point I am not certain just how up to date my C-47 is. It would be very helpful (to me for sure) to start a new thread beginning with all files needed to have the plane truly up to date. It could also identify all the "extras" that add quite a lot to the flight experience.
This is definitely a favorite of mine.

Nope. I'd greatly appreciate an aggregate post that explains exactly where this work of art is at and what steps are needed to install it all correctly, too.

Cheers,

Soundin cabin C-47_BEta_3.14 in P3Dv4.4

Okay I can see that there is a market for this. The link below gets you what I have got on my HD, three models, four planes, 210 MB in all. It should have all fixes discussed here, including the option to activate P3D V4 sounds.

Hello

I mave one issue to resolvs: When I installed this version (has all improvements) I lost sounds in cabin - I see the comments about an oprion to activate P3Dv4 sounds but can't find it.

Hi, in the panel folder you should have a file called panel.cfg64bit. Rename that to panel.cfg overwriting the original one. That should activate the V4 configuration. If it doesn't let us know.

This is indeed a great idea. At least in my little opinion, for whatever good that might be.

Now, if I may, a question about an expected update to the panel. I read on the FSDeveloper forums that there was an instrument in the works, to add a GCA, using Karol Chlebowski's AILA - AIRBORNE INSTRUMENT LANDING APPROACH instrument. This would enable a GCA on this, or really any, plane.
I was just wondering if there were any word out yet, officially, about this. Check Avon Brochure and Builders Warehouse Specials. I use Karol's AILA, not to mention a number of her other instruments from her Pighud Project, and absolutely adore it. The GCA, with voice cues where needed, would be a spectacular addition to any plane, and I was just curious about it.

Thanks for any information about this...

Indeed, an AILA-based GCA is what we are working on atm. Here is a short vid that Tom posted earlier I believe. There are some glitches we have to iron out still, and the release will be an experimental beta at best.
