What's with my 747?

[Addicted_to_Airbus]

Why does my default B747-4 have x-shaped wings? I've heard of this problem happening to other people aswell but I have no idea how to fix it. Please help!  :'(

Your video card is too old and does not support the advanced animations used for wing-flexing.
Turn the special animations OFF in the FSX settings.

But my other aircraft wings (eg. B737-8) flex though.  :-/

the default 737 has no flexing wings in fsx ....

unless that

this is one of those things i dont get:  Why didn't ACES put in a backup for Software skinning?  if anything, that should be the main method of skinning unless the graphics card has the neccesary shaders to do so...

btw, explain this:  On the FSX demo, I saw the 747's wing flex, but jerky style, like keyframes used in 3ds max.  and mygraphics card (GeForce 4 MX 64MB) doesn't have any shaders whatsoever, and in a DirectX Chart of graphics card, mine is actually a DX7 card...

had never flown one of the default 747s till last night...did the monsoon mission...woah!  That wing flex is really cool!  Looked like a bird flapping its wings!
