  • 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.

vstudios PT Stearman WIP (Payware)

I'm very sorry, if not devastated to read about the future of Vertigo and sincerly hope that there maybe - who knows - will be an occasion to look at this descision again and maybe continue with the enterprise.
Anyway, Deano, I wish you and your team all the best.
And by the way, I as a customer have no problem with shelling out $$$ for packages of variants of aircraft. Totally legitimate in my eyes.

Cheers,
Mark
 
Hi Roder, we still have 18 months of aircraft to get out yet ;)


Thanks though, really appreciated.

a lot of people dont care if their variant isnt made, as long as they can have their favorite paint scheme, or there are some nice schemes for the available model

they will fly it

That's not entirely true from the countless emails I receive.

When we first released the Hellcat sales was good, however 4 years on and sales are dropping a considerable amount per new release so developers are adding additional models to bulk out an initial release. Now this is well and good but combine, less sales and additional models plus increasing development costs. Our pirces havent changed to reflect this, however its possible to increase the price of a release to balance development costs. This could be more hurtful and in return create even less sales.

I wonder how sales might pick up with all models with release of the your company's USS Enterprise , myself have all the Vertigo Studio naval types , course the Stearman in its naval garb could be used as a trainer for the budding Hellcat pilot .. AI , Pilotable and Multiplayable CV-6 could be the saviour , the multiplays we have at NZFF for Carriers do create a large turnout .... may just work ;)

Be interesting to see how many of you enjoy WWII carrier ops ... I'd sure put my hand up even as the MP Captain of the ship .. the CAG so to speak:salute:

I wouldnt mind being the Big E captain for sessions... :D
 
Normally I wouldn't consider bi-planes, but because of the place I volunteer at now the Stearman has kind of grown on me. So I am watching this digital one with interest... Sorry to hear about VS closing down eventually though Deano. I really hope a F7F is in those 18 months. I still remember the thread that was started way back before even the F6F was out! I am also going to have to call dibs on the B-25.. I didn't even know someone was making one..... Any idea when this puppy is coming though? I know on your site you said you were waiting on some trademark things to come through. Hope the bird has not hit any snags with that.

Your On ;), TS3 , the NZFF channel is great for the talk in or to go around again .. I d like a chance to fly in onto a controlled carrier and with my VS Dauntless , Hellcat , Avenger , course with the Bearcat and Panther we can just simply pretend the Big E was recommissioned as a training carrier for the Korean War types - then the idea of the Kaydet .. a Carrier full of them :cool:

I also dearly hope for the B-25 release, as well as the C-47 that was in development and looked so promising. These are very popular titles which should generate some revenue for the developer... I'd buy them on the double for sure.

Cheers,
Mark
 
Been waiting for the Stearman. Looking forward to it. And would certainly buy both a B-25 and a C-47. I've been hoping for VS's C-47 ever since it's announcement.
 
Let me 2nd, 3rd and 4th the motion to release the B-25 and the C-47. You have a ready and waiting buyer here. Also, I'm dying to see the Enterprise come out. Would love to have a nice WWII carrier to trap on.
 
My order still says "Pre-order," and it hasn't hit my door step. I am going to guess it got pushed back beyond June 9th. Hopefully everything is ok, and they didn't have to do a re-print.
 
The PT is to land at our offices tomorrow and will be shipped out the same day.

There was a hold up with printing the manuals as the box art and manual are supplied from different companies and countries, this is the only reason for the delay :kilroy:

Fingers crossed they are printed in English :running:

Off to watch the Footy :jump:
 
Thanks Deano! I sure hope they are printed in English. Man that would be a bummer. Was just hoping it wasn't some last minute software "oh by the way." Is one reason I would be worried about doing a boxed product first vs a download first. Definately excited for this though, and looking forward to the B-25.
