  • 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.

National Parks

Would you mind checking KJAC when you get a chance? I have a bunch of large sized trees/bushes surrounding the airport. Looks very out of place.
 
Looks like trees were purposesly planted around the terminal. DVJ has internal view showing people inside the terminal which I have not seen yet. Will look again.

The people inside the terminal are, I believe, from the payware Jackson Hole airport from Dreamflight. I don't think they exist in the WU22 version. If DVJ is like me, he disabled the new default KJAC in favor of the Dreamflight version. The new WU22 one is good, but the payware is better, IMO. Be aware, though, that disabling the WU22 version also disables the new, guided tour flight around the Tetons.
 
Rushmore faces are missing for me! Anyone else?

Sure wish they could have paid attention to all of our wonderful National Parks in the eastern USA.

Is there a handy list of each park included? I have visited just about every major park and some not so major ones. I would like to compare them with my fading memory. :)
 
Well, my main problem with WU22 is that they ruined the forests in the Cascades and the Olympics. The photogrammetry thinks it's Bryce Canyon or the Petrified Forest. Many of the trees have been turned into rock pillars. :mad:

Yikes.

The PNW is one of my favorite places to fly, so even though the mountains look great, the stone forests are killing it for me. I may uninstall the update until it gets fixed (if it gets fixed). It's too bad, because so much of this update is absolutely fantastic.

I've noticed that in other areas as well. While the overall visual improvement due to photogrammetry is pretty remarkable in areas, the fact that stuff like this continues to happen is very frustrating.

I am exactly in the same situation as you, but instead of uninstalling the update, you might want to simply disable the photogrametry in your options ?
