    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • IMPORTANT INFORMATION - ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ

    Due to an increase in the number of new members who are trying to systematically download our entire Resource Library (one new member yesterday tried to download 3,000+ files AT ONCE!) we are being forced to implement some changes regarding who can download what, how many files at a time and at what speed. As the forums and Resource Library share the same bandwidth when the Library gets overloaded with demand like that the forums fall over, as we have all seen recently. It's sad that greed has forced our hand in this way but we must do something for the benefit of all our legitimate members (many of whom paid money for the upkeep of the site) and to prevent the files stored here being used for nefarious purposes. Many of our uploads have specific conditions tied to them that forbid uploading to any other site or deny uploading to any site that has a 'paywall' (i.e. a pay to download policy). Due to the number of mass download attempts recently we can only assume that somebody, somewhere, is attempting to stock up a new file library with our files and we owe it to our up-loaders to protect their files and intellectual property especially as many (like my own LDR Development projects) are made available at SOH only and are specified as such in the 'read me' files.

    The forums and Resource Library will be taken offline as of 13:00 EDT with the forums coming back online shortly after without the resources library while we work on setting up permissions on the new Library module.

    We hope our members understand why we need to do this and will bear with us while we implement the changes.

    Thanks in anticipation, SOH ADMINISTRATION

    Downloads are now active. You may proceed with downloading as desired

    The download limits are a work in progress. Some settings are likely to need tweaking in the coming days.

Aerostar - Thanks Pam

Thanks for the tip Pam :encouragement:. I picked up the Aerostar. I actually bought it a week ago, but only had a chance to do a quick run around in it tonight. I am very impressed.

A few shots around Cardiff.

All that cotton candy comes at an FPS hit. Thinking of trying one of the third party Weather engines

Picked up the VSKYLABS C-47 for 18€ (fair price) on friday. It's almost excellent and works well in the 11.30 beta, but requires some tweaks to the control surface trim and autopilot (currently working on that).

The engine-related part of the persistence plugin doesn't work in 11.30 beta yet, but the loading and saving does just fine.

Flying it around Nevada and California is a bit of a challenge though. I really had to look for mountain passes.

Save for the trims, the hand flying characteristics are excellent. Great work by the author!

The model is basically what I wanted to achieve with my FSX/P3D DC-3. Automixture, persistence, a bit of engine management, visual icing, visual rain.

Let's see how well it plays along with that LFRR plugin.



Bonus:

I've certainly been following development of that project Pam... Will likely add to my hangar if I can afford to... looks great.

FlyWithLua is great. I've written a complete, dynamic, easy to use, robust and persistent improvement script for the VSKYLABS C-47 with a mere 700 lines of code. In MSFS XML, I would have needed about twice as many lines, if not more. (To be fair, most of the savings are due to the generic UI building blocks provided in FWL's Imgui toolbox.)
