Martin Gossmann's Canopy Fixes

[ianc]

Hi All

Took the plunge and now re-discovering the delights of MAIW in FSX. Problem is that cannot get hold of Martin's canopy fixes for the Tornado GR4 or the Eurofighters as his download section on The Owl's Nest seems to be down-keep on getting a fatal error message when click on it. The other sections of the site seem ok.Anybody else having the same problem?

I am on my way back home, Ian. I will check into it later today.

Thanks very much Martin

The download center is down because my provider has changed PHP to a more current version. There are to many incompatibilities for a quick fix.

Ian, I believe all my cockpit fixes are on FlightSim as well.

Everybody: do you know of a free (or at least cheap) php/JavaScript based download center (MySQL would be okay, flat file just as well)?

Hi Martin

Thanks for that. I did look at Flightsim but couldn't find the zip for the Tornado GR4(the ADV and GR1's were there)and also could not see the various Eurofighter zips.

Ian,

That reminds me that I have a whole lot of new texture fixes that only wait for a screen shot to get published. I will do that soon.

I have introduced a new Download Center at The Owl's Nest, which is a big improvement. In case you still receive an error, please make sure that you have deleted your browsers cache.

Martin
Many thanks will give it a try.

Best wishes

Martin-works fine

I have introduced a new Download Center at The Owl's Nest, which is a big improvement.

Looks great Martin. I hadn't heard about phpATM before but it looks very clean and functional for an open source solution. I particularly like the zip file viewer.

It would be interesting to see how you can integrate it further into your current design.

It is the first time I stumbled over this one, Greg. And I looked for 'download center, php, javasccript' in all possible iterations - after all this is the third download center for the Owl's Nest...

And yes, I already though about if and how to apply a bit of the Owl Design. But I am not so sure if I want to invest my time here. The current version of phpATM was released already in 2010 and their support forum is gone for good, so the software is as dead as phpFileNavigator and the former solution I had.

[Greg]

Chances are it will break again with the next php update. I wouldn't bother either in that case.

On the other hand: doesn't your host offer the option to revert to an older php version from the control panel? Mine gives the option to go back from 5.3 to 5.2 and even 4.4 with a single click.

[gsnde]

In fact I could do that, Greg. But I was waiting for the newer PHP version to get some other things to work better (mainly in the Gallery, and they do). Since I was not very fond of the old download center anyway and phpATM is very lean and easy to maintain I will stick with it.
