    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

I can't remember if it was the same with MSFS2020 but in MSFS2024 i have been struggling with the cockpit zoom function from the beginning. I got *some* zoom with my mouse scroll wheel but not nearly enough and even that's gone now too. External zoom has always been fine and still is. Just now i finally found why i never could get any sort of cockpit zoom back. What a relief it is to finally get to see what i'm doing with my instruments again !! (NEVER a problem with ANY FS version before Asobo got its dirty hands on it (nah... i love Asobo (i think..;-))

So, for anyone struggling with the cockpit zoom function as well : the trick is to set the Zoom Function in General/Camera to Manual NOT Focus !

And than to think that this simple setting has cost me hours of aggrevation.... Oh well, i'm so glad i have my zoom back i already forgat about it...( i think...;-)
 
I changed from using a mouse to a touchpad. You can get them a LOT cheaper than the one I bought from Amazon, but this one is high quality and works outstanding. No need for a mouse pad. Took me a little while to become proficient with it, but would never go back to a regular mouse, wired or wireless. NC
