• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Sorry, my fault

Sorry for the downtime that occured yesterday. It seemed the website had run out of available bandwidth and I was too busy yesterday to notice it in time. Luckily we are available again now.

I was aware of the fact that we had used a lot of bandwidth last month and I had even ordered some extra bandwidth when the end of the month approached. But I made a little calculation error (I only looked at the web bandwidth usage and forgot the email usage), so that caused the bandwidth to be used up before I had expected it. Next month I will take extra care of this (of course).

For those interested in some figures. SceneryDesign.org used between 5 and 6 GB of bandwidth each month. After we turned it into FsDeveloper we had already upgraded to a bigger package allowing us 10 GB of bandwidth each month. But we have used all of that in our first month already (with the extra bandwidth I ordered we even used 11 GB in October). I think we should look positive at this, it means that FsDeveloper is found useful and gets a lot of visits. And you can be sure that we will be watching the bandwidth usage even more closely from now on, to make sure we don't run out of it again.
 
Hi Arno,

While the success of your new site is definitely your "fault" (i.e. you should take credit of much of its success), a little miscalculation is hardly something you need to worry about - as you say, it's a good thing!! :)

Take care,
