POSky question/problem

Plz notice the arrows...

This one and the Deltas do the very same thing with the textures. Any ideas?

How does it look in the sim itself?

I have that same plane. It looks fine in my sim. Best bet is to check that you have all the texture files for it. Does it always do this or does it just happen sometimes?
Try redownloading it and just overwrite all the files, I have fixed a few problems this way before.

Let us know if you get it fixed or not.

is it possible that you have downloaded an addon texture with lets say for example GE engines onto a model that has RR engines and different texture names?

is there 2 types of engines on the 757 anyways?

just a thought

The 2 engine types are PW and RR. When I try to load any that are missing the texture, it locks my PC up and I have to force my PC to shut down  :( I will re-down load them and see what happens. However the texture files for the engines are 'different' from the ones that I have no problem with. I will post a SS when I get home then maybe that may be were the problem is.  ???

Here is the ss of a few of the files. Now keep in mine I DLed all of the POSky 757-200.

Plz take note of the file type. It does appear to happen with the PW engine 757s  ??? What is wrong here?

Have you looked at the texture format?

The last three are 4,097 Kb whereas the first one is only 1,025 Kb.

Maybe the texture format is still in 24 bit.
