It's only a guess but if you're working in DDS format I suspect you need to flip the textures before saving them.

It's not necessary to reboot the computer for the new textures or any addons to display in any version of MSFS.

That would depend on how you flipped them to edit them. DXTBmp has a flip/mirror feature.

I don't flip them to edit them.  I just open the file in DXTBMP, save it as 24 bit windows bitmap, then open in my image editor and start editing the pixels.

All five worked perfectly.  In my opinion, of the five, American Pacific, Pacifica and the World Travel ones turned out the best.  Make sure it's at night and turn on the landing lights to see the glow.  Just give me your email address and I'll send them to you.  They're for FS2004.

The default FS2004 Boeing 737-400 to make it glow in the dark like neon on the outside body using landing lights.

By the way your little email button at the bottom of your posts isn't working and I don't know how to correctly work this forum's file link function even though I found it in the Help section.

I just uploaded the plane so it should be up in 1-2 days. It's called "FS2004 Glowing Boeing 737-400".  If anyone want's it early let me know and I'll send it to you as an email attachment so you'll have it without the wait.  the download is stand alone so don't get rid o the default Boeing.
