November 27, 200619 yr Hey,I recently Installed the European Air Charter (Palmair) livery from the library, when I select it in the fs2004 menu flight sim crashes, no hard drive activity and a slow crash it just disapears, with no error message (Do you want to send this error report to microsoft etc..) Does anyone have any ideas what caused this?Matt
November 27, 200619 yr Matt,I think the problem is caused by the texture file (texture.EAL). I think that the program is not accepting the *.bmp textures. Open the aircraft.cfg file and change the line texture=EAL to texture=DL or one of the other textures, or just leave it blank and the aircraft will load OK.Of course, without the texture, there is no point in using the Re-paint.Hope this helps,
November 27, 200619 yr You might try using dxtbmp or ImageTool to convert the texture files to 24-bit bmps (or DXT3) and then write them out. A common repainter's error is leaving the bmp files unformatted for FS after modding them with a paint program.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-V L-300Santiago de Chile Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
