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. :-/

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...
