There might be perhaps, a power outage that shut down ORBX's server location, and not FSS.

Our website, forum and email are all hosted with the same company as ORBX. We have sent correspondence on the matter and hope it's resolved soon!

Bummer... bought Trees HD and need the new Orbxlibs but can't download it now... I think a vital file like that should be available from other sites too, like the Flightsimstore...

That'll be a very colourful correspondence I'll be bound!

I am also finding that FTX Central 2 is no longer showing my installed add-ons. Does it work by polling the Orbx servers before letting addons run, e.g. is it DRM?

 

EDIT: Also I had a ton of problems last night with FSS, the site was super slow and sent me several purchase notifications. Really hope I didn't use the site during a hack?

I just read your post...and was curious...fired up Central 2..and everything shows as it should. Did that with P3D as well.  You might have an issue....

Having said that, the Orbx site literally just came back online as well. Just good timing on your end.

 

And now my addons all show up.

I have found the site has been down for several days. Does anybody know what is going on and why have they not offered an explanation about what is going on?

Not for me in New Mexico.  I still get the message they are down and moving the service to another location.

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

Hi,

 

I had the same issue (stuck at the black screen with message), forcing the page to refresh (Ctrl+F5) solved it.

I guess all of you didn't notice that the OP asked (and you-re replaying to) about an event that happened OVER A YEAR AGO....

 

 

It's down now because of server maintenance/migration.
