    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.

Wide angle views on FSX Accel.

Good Afternoon All,
I believe there must be a simple solution to the following problem, but I just cannot seem to find it. Recently I found that I must have pushed the wrong combination of keys, as all the views I have on my FSX, look as though I am looking through a wide angle lens. The distortion gets more obvious as you get further to the sides of the monitor screen, and it effects both internal and external views of the aircraft. I have been through the settings menu, and tried all the combinations shown in Buttons and Keys, Views, but to no effect. There must be some way to get back to the original default settings-Anyone got any ideas? Thanking you in advance,

(Fumble Fingers), Catboat
 
Hi,

Locate your FSX.cfg file and change the following value:

WideViewAspect=False

It as to be false

The file is located in the following folder:

C:\Users\your user name\AppData\Roaming\microsoft\FSX

Cheers,

Priller
 
Thanks Priller
