  • 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.

I'm stressed out for weeks about this update. This will be a big load off my back, I'm really anxious to read the replies.
 
Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to flying this new version with all of these updates and all of the different variants completed and otw.
 
Hey Vitus, I read the install instructions and am not sure if we should uninstall the prior version before updating.

Thanks,
LouP
 
TLDR: Yes! It is definitely required for you to uninstall the old version first!

Detailed explanation if you're interested:
The reason is that there are changes to the file structure, to keep the installation size low I am trying to share resources like textures as much as I can, which is why there's now a new folder called "Wing42 Lockheed Vega shared" in your airplane folder. In there you'll find the sound files, panels and gauges and common textures. If you don't install your previous installation first, those old common textures will remain in the "Wing42 Lockheed Vega 5/textures" folder, and thus your model will load these files, instead of the new ones.
