Skins wont work

Postby Wishbone » Wed Jul 16, 2003 6:55 pm

Can anybody tell me why some skins show up on my stock aircraft and some don't? I can restart the game and ones that have shown before wont show. I've turned off the nose art and set colours to white. It's very anoying, I don't like the wing  stripes, any help would be greatfull.

What aircraft/skins seem to be the trouble Wishbone?
Oh and remember this is the holiday season, so you should wait a couple of weeks before complaining ;D 'cos its more than likely that the person who knows the answer to your woes is on holiday ::)

Okay, todays top tip. Contact the supplier! I know that here at SimV most of the stuff is thoroughly checked out, and any problems refered to Pete, so give these guys a bell and see what they have to say.
Also if you let me know the filenames of the skins I'll try and look into a solution for you.

Ozzy ;)

Thanks Ozzy (sorry for the delay getting back to you). I did a reinstall and all the skins work fine now. I know its not getting to the root of the problem why they did'nt work, but at least I'm not shouting at any of you guys anymore ;D.It's possible it could have had something to do with the 3.1 patch ( I did'nt have it installed),saved you some work anyhow. Thanks again
