Textures not being displayed

Postby phil12 » Fri Sep 30, 2011 10:15 am

The textures of various aircraft I have downloaded do not show up. This includes the "Air France A380-861 Photoreal with Real VC" and others. Am I doing something wrong?

Are you making sure you also update the aircraft cfg file? If you dont update that and make sure you number it correct your textures wont show up in your list of planes........

That is for 'textures only' aircraft. The aircraft in question is a full model.
You should never have to edit anything with full model a/c downloaded here.


Here is the aircraft in question straight out of the box. As you can see it's fine. If there is anything else you can tell us that may help. Are the textures in the textures folder with the correct BMP extensions?

Make sure your "Preview Direct X" is un-checked on your graphics settings.
