Aircraft Texture Loading Delay

Postby Ashar » Sun May 10, 2009 10:25 pm

Hey guys,
Just as the titles says, my aircraft textures don't seem to load right away. Sometimes they take over 10 minutes to load up! I don't know what the issue could be as only my aircraft are affected. Ground textures, AI traffic, scenery textures and everything else load up just fine. Furthermore, this is a brand new issue that's picked up. It has never occurred before.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks ;)

Are the textures just gray, or are do they have the basic colors loaded, but are blurry?

Blurriness would be a "mip map" issue, which can be resolved by removing the mips using the DXTBmp program. (I believe that is the correct name.)

Other than that, the only thing I can say is to double check your aircraft display settings in the menus.

I'm sure the more knowledgeable folks will chime in during the next few hours.

Hey Sean, the textures are just gray almost as if a texture for that part does not exist. Sometimes, a bit of the aircraft will appear and then another part will become gray. Very strange. :-/
