I downloaded the 717-200 all-white (blank) repaint kit, and i made my own repaint, but when i selected the plane in fs9, nothing-no white, no blue, nothing. the textures are missing.

I copy and pasted the [fltsim.0] thing, and changed it to [fltsim.1] and did the other required stuff. I did copy the textures folder and changed the copy's name to "textures.1" for my plane and did the repaints and such.

Maybe i missed something?

However, it wasn't always that way\s in the first few years of production, there were so few orders that Boeing considered canceling the program. They didn't, and the airplane has more than proven itself in over three decades of service."

EDIT: i censored the name of the airline for personal security reasons, in case i spontaneously want to try to make it a Real Life airline. ;D

Looks good to me . . . I have no idea why this one won't show. It's under the Boeing manufacturer so should be there. My only suggestion is to try and find it using either FSRepaint or DXTbmp to double-check the textures. Good Luck.
P.S. Another idea may be to d/l someone elses repaint and enter it as {fltsim.2} and see if it shows; basically, moving from the known to the unknown.

Are you sure the texture=1 has the suffix of the texture-file you are referring to? Gave me a lot of trouble at the start of adding repaints...

are you sure you got the right settings when you saved the texture files?
