Goodly morning all... :)

Downloaded a new livery for the DeHavilland Beaver on wheel/skis as there are only a couple Beavers available on skis.
Misty Moorings on this Beaver is the Dirty configuration.

My problem and question is:
What happened to the cockpit...it is all black...
I thought this was just a repaint.... :o

FSX and Windows 7
Aircraft:

Great shots, Doug..............It looks like VC textures are missing from the download. You could open the texture folder of one that displays correctly and look for the VC bmp files and then copy them into the Misty Moorings texture folder.......I don't have this aircraft, so I don't know what they're named :-/

Very nice shots, Doug... :)....

...but...

Have you thought about moving your Fleet down to the Southern USA for some nice, hot, sunny weather, for a change?... ::)...

...I cant cope with all this ice, snow, and freezing cold weather...
I'm getting Frostbite in my Joystick fingers!

Paul... :o... ;D...!

P.S...nice to see you have included shadows, when the aircraft are sat on the ground...VERY important!

Doug, as said above, the folder that contains your new repaint is incomplete. I'm pretty sure it includes only the fuselage textures :)
What you need to do is to copy the content of one of the default ski "texture.*" folders, and paste it in your new repaint folder, without overwritting anything. In this way, missing files will be added, existing files will be kept.

Hi Paul... :)

We love all four (4) of Mother Natures Seasons Paul.

If I had to choose a favourite season to do some real life aviating in I couldn't.

Now as for Flight Simulator...I will be happy to see what area I can find in the game to warm you up... ;D

Thanks for the comments... ;)

Thanks "hyperprep111" for the comment... :)

The Beaver is my favourite aircraft in FSX and wonderful on wheelsl, wheel/skis, floats or amphibious floats to tour around the screen with.

It is my only Payware aircraft and hoping someone makes the DeHavilland DHC-3 "Otter" for FSX.

I suppose it is too much to think MS Flight will have a radial engine Beaver and an Otter in all configurations.... ;D
