  • 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.

Water Effects

I haven't seen anything about the water described in detail yet and would like to more as well. I've been impressed by the look of the water in the various videos/screenshots put out so-far. I've noticed different wave sizes (heights?), and different wave patterns, and assume the waves are driven by the wind in the sim (based on everything else being incorporated, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if that is the case).

This recent shot would suggest that even whitecaps/sea foam is simulated (perhaps one of the procedural-based effects that will appear as you get closer to the water's surface and generated based on the weather conditions/wind).
