About a week ago I got the sudden urge to try some repainting in FSX so went and grabbed a nice biplane, the Travel Air.

It is where the passenger's head is, yeah.  I never really noticed that before, since I never used the passenger before.  You'll notice that even when the passenger's mug is blocking your line of sight ( :P ) the box of transparency is still there in front.  I gave a start when you mentioned SP2, though, because I really should have thought of that before.  I confirmed it by uninstalling Acceleration, then reinstalling it.  So I guess now it is a texture question (sorry :( )...I need to find out how to get rid of that box.  I imagine there's some alpha channel I need to fix?  Black out, or make all white?  I already tried that before, but I must have missed something.  Either that or I'm barking up the wrong tree again.  Are there any more experienced repainters who would be able to have a peek in that folder and tell me what I've got to do?
