VC woes

Hey everyone, please help.

I have two payware products with the same problem. The virtual cockpit windows do not display outside. It seems they are textured with the reflection textures for the windows.

I've added screenshots below.

Can anyone help me fix this?

Looks very similar. I'm very disappointed that my payware is acting like this :(

Theres an SP2 patch to fix it on the CLS site and the Capn Sin site (spelling correct).  A340 has gone back near the top of my fave list again, which is unusual for an Airbus!

Perform a search in FSX forums on this site for "alpha channel" in posts in the last year.  If this is FS9 aircraft then you may need to modify the alpha channel for the canopy textures.  There are numerous posts that explain how to do it.

Hope that this is your problem and that this helps.

The patches I mentioned above are the dedicated ones for these two particular aircraft.  They are from the people who make/distribute the aircraft in question.  Rather than being one which, whilst being dead useful for most aircraft, is a generic fix.
