SWA 737-700 no TEXTURE

Postby dyfly » Wed Feb 23, 2005 11:17 am

:)Just downloaded the Southwest AI Traffic v2.0 by David Hays and installed it to fs9.

All others 737 will show texture but the 737-700 is the only one that will show no texture.

Anyone have info on this problem :(  I can see the texture file but it looks like it has not been painted. Taxing around and flying with no paint on it. just a gray color ???New one on me

If you are fairly sure there is a problem with this file it may be a good idea to inform the author & I'm sure he will issue a fix ..

Thanks

Two things to check.

First check to see what extension your texture folder was given when you installed the aircraft. It would look somethng like texture.skt or texture.01

Second make sure your aircraft.cfg file had the right texture in the line    

texture=XXX where the XXX is the same as the extension of your texture folder kinda like this

texture=swt or texture=01

Thats what I find to be the cause of the majority of texture issues like yours.

If that is ok then the possibility exists the texture you recieved is incompatable wiht that particular model of aircraft. I have downloaded 737 textures and have had that problem too.

;DThat was it 8)You hit the nail on the Head ;D

It was the name it did not match to the texture.

Texture.southwest nc_w
Texture.southwest oc_w

[fltsim.0]
title=Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-700 Winglets OC
sim=aia_737_NG
model=no_refl
panel=
sound=
texture=Southwest oc

[fltsim.1]
title=Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-700 Winglets NC
sim=aia_737_NG
model=no_refl
panel=
sound=
texture=Southwest nc

Went back into the Aircraft CFG file 14kB


added    
texture=Southwest nc_w
texture=Southwest oc_w


Now we have colors 8)

Thanks Pete And Papa9571  awesome info
