  • 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.

Zoom in MSFS 2020

YoYo

YoYo

SOH-CM-2023
Installed Today. I'm impressed but what heppened with zoom -/+?
Zoom in mouse (wheel) works very well in VC (precisely) but from keyboard "-, +" or joystick, it has very, very big jump - something like two short pushes and I'm on maxed or min zoom. To fast....
Any idea? Is it normal?
 
BTW, for anyone who hasn't noticed, you can also adjust the default height that you sit in the cockpit within the cockpit camera settings and it will keep it at that setting for you.

Also, you can use the space bar key to quickly give yourself a boost up in your seat in the cockpit to see over the nose, and pressing the space bar again will reset back to the default height. If I'm not using Track-IR, this is very helpful to quickly look up and over or back down and lower just by pressing the space bar.

Another tip - although it is on auto by default (another cockpit setting you can change), there is a flashlight effect that allows you to illuminate the cockpit at night, as if you're using a flashlight, to allow you to see in the dark before turning on the aircraft power/lights. The default key command for the flash light is Left Alt+L.
 
BTW, there are a bunch of how-to videos appearing in Youtube on settings adjustments. Loving this sim so far. Been a week now.
