    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.

Hi all!

The developer Manfred Siedler - the maker behind SimDocks.de - develops a new Alster-scenery. Thus, the Jungfernstieg in Hamburg is already completed in large parts, the Ballindamm and some ferry boats have already been completed. In order to give the Jungfernstieg a much more liveliness, 34 animated persons were installed in the scenery. It is the Living People of Bahrometrix. This is now the second project on which Manfred and I work together.

Now enough of the many words, here a few pictures from the current development process ...

For a better overall impression and to reflect the quality of the animated people, Manfred has created a small preview video. But see for yourself:

Holy Cow! That is awesome. Oh, that gives me some great ideas for rescue missions. How cool to have animated objects like people!

Thank you very much for the comparison with ORBX, which makes me very happy. Thank you! Manfred will be sure to read and be very happy about the nice words. I do it, too.
