Hi all,

I dont know what happened to my simulator but i am having problems with my downloaded aircraft (mainly POSKY and IFDG). When selecting any downloaded aircraft to fly, i get the airplane with parts of the fuselage with no paint/logo/colour as suppose to be. Instead, for example, i get a fine tail, but the rest of the plane body is totally grey looking like a paint kit. I would like to upload an image to show but i dont know how to do this. I have tried many solutions...i tried re-installing FS9, i tried deleting all FS files and removing AI flights and then re-installing, i tried other downloads, tried restarting computer til i ran out of solutions.....please please help

many thanks

Hmm...my initial thought was a problem with specific aircraft textures, but re-installing them would have fixed it.
Having failed to think of a solution  ::) o you have problems just with, say, a downloaded POSKY plane versus a default FS plane? How long ago did these symptoms start occurring?

Download DXTBMP and convert all the texture files to DXT3, this cured my problem when the same issue used to occure, may be time consuming but it's worth it
