i have read in many threads that quite a few people are upset about not being able to swap aircraft. i have offered to a couple people in the past but had no takers, but the problems seems to go on, so again i will offer this. i am not making any money from it and it is from a server i have set up at home on a 512Kb/s up cable connection. not the fastest but better than nothing.

Website Link to view the site, not to upload
[link=http://rcmodels.sytes.net]http://rcmodels.sytes.net[/link]
again, this is just to help out the community and i gain nothing from this, as i don't even have G3, but i do have the knowledge of how to setup up web/ftp sites so i may as well use it . there are no popups or adds on it, just a plain site.

FTP info for you to upload the files to be shared:
ftp://rcmodels2.sytes.net
username: rfg3
password: plane

do not use the link directly from the browser unless you are using internet explorer because with firefox you will get a 530 wrong password error. use a ftp client, a good free one is [link=http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/]Filezilla[/link]

use port mode in your ftp client software and please put in the correct directory.

also, please make them zip files and create a new directory for each one you upload

thanks

nobody? well, can't say i didn't try...

we already have a couple "swap" pages, but they are not like the realflight official swap pages where anyone can post what they want, is that what you are trying to do?

My Feedback: (8)

Breakstuff5050

I just sent you some planes.

bob4432

yes, sorry that i didn't get back quicker, but i did not receive a email that anybody responded to my post

bob4432

how big are they? because i did not get them.

here is ftp info for you to upload them to:

ftp://rcmodels2.sytes.net
username: rfg3
password: plane

do not use the link directly from the browser unless you are using internet explorer because with firefox you will get a 530 wrong password error.

use port mode in your ftp client software and please put in the correct directory.

also, please make them zip files and create a new directory for each one you upload

thanks

Just so you know, I don't think there is ever going to be a "swap page" based on what Jim Bourke has publicly stated..

.. I have no what this "automated swap system" is but it looks like we won't see it till the end of the year[&:]

Anybody have a clue what Jim means by "automated swap system"??

Breakstuff5050

beats the tihs out of me!

........Backwards

jaafit

It means G3 will handle swapping files from within the software.

Rick Delten

Does this mean if I am flying online and someone has a plane I don't have it will be added to my inventory of planes?
Could you provide a little more detail?

Breakstuff5050

Now that would be sweet! I hate not being able to see the add on models that i dont have in multiplayer, same with the colorschemes!

jaafit

Well shoot. I was just at lunch with my boss and told him what I said above and he said I was wrong. It's not going to be handled within the software. "Automated swap pages" means something else (web-based) and now that I'm more informed, I can't really say much more about it except that it's been a fairly hot topic around the lunch table. Sorry for the confusion.

bob4432

i am not stepping on anybody's toes by offering this space am i?

Breakstuff5050

you cant be, unless you want it to be the official g3 swap page

bob4432

i can't to that. this was just to be a band-aid until greatplanes/knife edge got their swap page up

Breakstuff5050

yea well i figured that!

jaafit

Not at all

bob4432

unless i am intrepreting this incorrectly, i don't understand the hostility towards me in trying to help out the community. i am not receiving any type of gain from this and was just something i offered because i have the knowledge and ability to put up a site that is easy to use until knifeedge got their site up and running.

you all have the ftp info and you can use internet explorer to upload stuff, all you do is login and drag your files to the desired folder - please create a new folder in the appropriate folder, so if you want, you can upload the planes, airports, schemes and share with others.

if somebody could explaing the hostility toward me from Breakstuff5050 i would appreciate it.

Breakstuff5050

I'm sorry man, I wasnt trying to be hostle in anyway, all I said was "yea well i figured that", i meant that as I figured that you were trying to help us out since the official swap page is not up yet. I'm sorry if I came off that way, maybe I should have chosen better words to describe what I was trying to say, again, I apoligize. But thank you for this offer, it would be well appreciated if you did this!

no probs now that it is all explained, it is all up and running if you guys/gals want to use it, go for it. if you send me a thumbnail, that can be added to you particular model also, in the description.

Breakstuff5050

you already have a web address and stuff? What is it so i can check it out.

As for rc-sim, i dont like their setup for g3, they dont have anything really good plus i couldnt figure out how to upload earlier.

very simple and free, but again a band-aid until knifeedge gets their swap page up
