Hello Lads...

Any idea on the latest news on this?...>>>

http://www.simviation.com/fsdterrainsrtm.htm

Gateway Timeout:
Files Temporally unavailable due to Server Transfer.
63.218.227.225

Cheers all...!

Paul...8)...!

It's a shame really that the date/time of these failures isn't included in the report...

Nope it ain't working here either Paul. I think Pete has blocked it just temporarily though. I imagine it to be one of the biggest eaters of bandwidth.  ::)

...it's a bit of an arse... :'(...!

I rely heavily on those Mesh Files during the various Multiplayer Hops around the World.

Because of Dial-up limitations, I have to download selected files to cover the immediate area before each flight... :-[...!

It is my best source of Scenery Mesh Files...!

Let's hope it gets fixed very soon...!

Cheers all...!

Paul....It's all a bit of a mesh... :'(...!

This is still out of action...!

Are the comlete list of Stephen Rothlisberger scenery mesh files available from anywhere else...?
I am desperate for them for our regular, weekly Multiplayer flights...:o...!

Cheers all...!

Hi Paul, Sorry about this. The server went down. They were on their own server & it had a complete wipeout. This means finding a new server & then uploading them all again- the 1st time too several weeks .....

There is nothing I can do other than what I have said above ...

Thanks for the message, Pete...;)...!

I've done an extensive search on the 'Net for an alternative supplier of the SRTM Scenery Mesh, and all I can find is this link, indicating that Stephen's "Global SRTM Scenery Mesh" was only supplied to Simviation, and no one else...!

http://www.altairva-fs.com/scenery/scenery.htm

So, if it's not possible to download it from Sim V, then we are well and truly stuffed... :'(...!

Is there a Payware SRTM version which is as good, or better that Stephen's SRTM Mesh...?

I need it for our Weekly Tours...:o...!

Cheers all...!

Paul... 8)...!

Thank-you Pete, for loosing the bleedin' files...

Any ideas on when they will be available again.  I just reinstalled FS and I totally forgot about all the SRTM mesh I had installed.  Just curious, I really appreciate the great resource you have provided, and look forward to it being available again. :)

That server died a death. Impossible to even access it to do anything. Meanwhile we are getting a new main server soon & these SRTM files will also be hosted on that.
