    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

JoinFS Online Multiplayer Server

Notorious Hideout for FlightSim Renegades, Outlaws and Scofflaws

In addition to bringing the Teamspeak server online, we now have the same server running JoinFS.

The installation is in the testing phase. I still have to figure out how to run it as a service. Right now if the process stops it is a manual restart.

Feel free to test while we continue to work out the installation.

You can find the server in the Public Hubs list or use the address directly ts3.sim-outhouse.net


TS3 Server new Home

The Teamspeak 3 server is back online.

Server name ts3.sim-outhouse.net

It was challenging to get the old database running on it but we accomplished that mission.
