August 13, 200916 yr Hi Folks,I am suddenly experiencing lack of textures in my (FS9) MD-11 VC (see attached images). I have been using this aircraft almost exclusively in VC mode (using TrackIR) since its release and have never had a single problem with it. My PC specs are well capabable of running VC smoothly (as i said I have used it flawlessly for a while). All of my 2D Panels/Textures/Systems look & work fine, all external textures are fine. All my other PMDG/LVLD virtual cockpits are working fine even at their high resolution/detail settings. The VC display is still smooth and the button 'hotspots' seem to work - it just appears to be missing the textures.Aside from microsoft automatic system updates, the only other changes I have recently made is a minor upgrade of VLC, plus added Zune software. I have not recently changed or added any thing to my FS installation.Since discovery of this problem I have tried the following ... Completely Un-installed/reinstalled the PMDG MD-11 (and patch). Updated my nVidia GeForce GTX295 drivers. Tried lower resolution screen settings. Tried lower graphics detail settings. Tried both windowed/full screen display. Closed TrackIR Closed of all non-essential services * Obviously I have re-started FS9 and/or PC after each of these changes.Can anyone please offer suggestions? I am quite familiar with aircraft/panel configuration if there is something I need to look for. [specs]FS9Vista-64Intel i7 Core extreme12 GB RAMnVidia GeForce GTX295Regards,Rod

August 19, 200916 yr Were you installing livery textures from a zip? I find that many people do not package the VC textures with the zip, so I usually copy the default textures into the new texture folder, then copy the livery textures into the folder and overwrite.

Anyhow, unless I am mistaken, most (if not all) of the primary panel textures are held in the panel folder and are common regardless of the number of aliases added to the model. And yes I checked that the panel mapping was correct within the aircraft config file. So overall I still did not actually get to the root of the problem, however my re-installs rectified it.Rod
