It's showing ok for me from work and home?? It sounds like a cookie problem, as that's where phpBB keeps track of all that. You need to delete your cookie, just go into your cookie folder and delete all the ones with biohazcentral.com in the name, then try it again and let me know what happens. It might be a leftover from the move, is anyone else having this issue?

Thanks for letting me know, I'll work on it this afternoon to get it resolved.

I've seen a lot of people claim the death of the sim is upon us, that LOMAC will be the last of the great flight sim. I was curious what everyone's thoughts were on the subject. My own personal feelings is we are just in a lull right now. I don't know how many times I've heard this gloom & doom prediction in all my years in this hobby. It's just the ebb and flow of the publishing game, stuff gets hot, then you don't see it for awhile. Anyway, what do YOU think?

I have not heard the latest on going gold, but I have read several encouraging posts about new beta builds, lots of squashed bugs, stuff like that. I think we are starting to see signs of a release soon. :D

Fates, let me know if it's still happening now that we are on the new system. That goes for everyone else as well...

Thanks, although it's been a little messy around here the last week... :roll: Hopefully things will calm down and I can concentrate on site design now.

The site move is complete and we are at our new location. There is some cleanup stuff to do, but all in all everything looks like it's working, and much faster than before. I just have a few things like avatars to fix, and we should be back to normal! :D Please let me know of any problems you encounter.

Actually, no, go ahead and get it ready. If it's ready before the move, I'll go ahead and post it. :D

I'm posting this here as well as the main news page. Well, this week has clinched it. We have had several weird line issues here the past week(Bad), combined with the rapid growth we have seen the past few weeks here at Biohaz(Good!), has given me the swift kick in the butt I needed to start getting serious about moving the whole site to a dedicated provider. Up to this point I've ran the site on my DSL line, but it just ain't cuttin' it any more... =) So here's the status. I have the provider picked out and will be setting things up tonight as soon as I get the last few questions answered. I will be doing some fall cleaning on the site in preparation for the move, then hopefully by this weekend I will do the domain transfer and have the site up and running in it's new home. Unfortunately, you guys will have to suffer for a few more days, as well as some slight disruption while the DNS record is pushed out, but I think you will like the new changes. I went with a pretty good package (20Gb/month) so we should be good to go for quite awhile. Stay tuned for more info as it happens.

Hmm, let's try this... I didn't get the message this time. Try replying and see if it works this time... :roll:

Hmm, I'm looking at the site right now from a Mandrake 8.2 box with Mozilla 0.9.8 and it looks perfect on my end. What version of Mozilla are you using on your end?

Has it done it today? I set the board to not do SMTP email stuff as of about 08:00 system time here.

I see that, I killed the extra posts. I've got that once or twice too. I temporarily stopped the email-notification while I track down the missing file.

That's it, one is too much... :D I'll start working on moving to a dedicated host provider this week. These problems WILL be resolved... :x

Are people having issues getting on the site the last few days? Things like server not found messages? I noticed it was rather quiet last night and this morning. Of course, if no one's getting on I guess they can't answer this post... :roll: I'm on from work right now without problems, but as I headed out from home I noticed the site was not responding, so I restarted Apache. Hmmm, I think it's time I get serious about moving this site to a real Host Provider...

Thanks for pointing that out. The only problem I noticed with the conversion script that it tended to do funny things with the first post/topic in a forum. I did a test and it seem to be ok with following topics. I'll keep my eyes on it. :shock:

Mike, thanks for the heads-up on that. I haven't hit the new site with my linux box yet, guess I should do that... =)

Just a quick note for those of you that haven't noticed, I posted the default F-4 and F-104 skins and decals in the downloads area. If you create a skin just send it up and I'll be glad to host it here at BioHaz.

Where did you see it for 30% off? I may have to snag one myself. After all, I gotta get one for my 6-year old son soon. Got to get him started on the ol' sim habit early! He's already been playing Starcraft and Homeworld pretty proficiently now for almost a year.

I've heard good things about the X-45. It's a good HOTAS for the price, plus it's USB. I have a CH Products setup here, a ForceFX stick and Pro Throttle and Pro Pedals. It was an absolute perfect setup, until I went to XP. Now I have a stck and throttle I can't program because of the gameport issue, and the force feedback driver is not supported in XP. But I'm not willing to go back to Win98. $300+ worth of controllers acting like a $30 setup :x Sorry, rambling here. Get to the point! :D I've been looking for a cheaper HOTAS setup until I can swing a Cougar the first of the year, and I've been looking at the X45 myself. I don't think you can go wrong with that choice.

Very well said Fates! There are some great sims just around the corner, and you can tell how antsy people are getting just by reading the forums. There seems to be a lot of impatient and grumpy users out there lately. It's amazing how much multiplayer has changed how we play games. I remember the first sim I played MP in, Longbow2 right after it came out. I played pilot while someone across the US sat back-seat. After that I never looked at simming the same again. Most games I get now I don't even play the single-player missions. It was over 6 months before I even tried the single-player Mechwarrior4 campaign, and I have yet to finish it. Crushing a computer opponent just doesn't compare to blowing your best friends to virtual hell!

BTW, I would love to see a Phantom next. [hint hint]

Send me a button link when you get a chance so I can throw it on the main page. :D
