    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.

Alphasim's UFO scenery/aircraft/mission pack for CFS2?

Years ago Alpha Simulations had a package for CFS2 that included a "UFO" aircraft, along with scenery for Groom Lake (Area 51), as well as two mission files for CFS2 ( http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/content.php?5645-Alpha-Simulations-Releases-Area-51-Scenery ).

You can download the freeware release of the CFS2 UFO aircraft here -> http://www.virtavia.com/Freeware/ ( http://www.virtavia.com/Freeware/ALPHA_UFO_CFS2.zip ), but the COMPLETE package is no where to be found on the Internet :(

Would anyone know of a working download link for the complete ORIGINAL package, or maybe have it lying around on your hard drive somewhere? The missions and scenery sounds like a real hoot :)
 
That's it! MANY THANKS! :)

I was using the Wayback Machine Internet archive, and actually stumbled upon that filename, but unfortunately they didn't have that file archived.

Again, many thanks! :)
 
I just realized: The ZIP didn't include the scenery files for Area 51/Groom Lake. Do you happen to have that ZIP somewhere as well? Thanks in advance :)
 
There's also the Avenger Flight 19 mission by Charlie Carter.

Hi Rich,

Sorry, I thought the Area 51 scenery was included. I went into my AlphaSim - Scenery archives and found everything but Area 51. Hmmmm.
 
I noticed that we have the FS9 version of the scenery here at SOH (ALPHA Groom Lake FS9.zip), but that one seems to crash CFS2. I did notice though that if I delete the "AF2_ATS1.bgl" file in the pack, it seems to load just fine.

That being said, I THINK that the filename would be "ALPHA_Groom_Lake_FS02.zip" for the CFS2 compatible version, judging by an archive of their web page here -> https://web.archive.org/web/20121219171804/http://www.virtavia.com/Freeware/index.php?dir=/Scenery . Unfortunately all of the file downloads there at the Wayback Machine are not archived.
