FSX transparency & shadows

Featured Replies

I have some 3rd party scenery in FSX Acceleration that shows transparency as black boxes and ground shadows display out of place.The black transparency is evident in Paul Derbyshire's Runcorn bridge in Liverpool. If I look at the BMP file in PSP the whole background is black. Can I easily change that to whatever colour FSX Acceleration uses for transparency?The other black box problem is in some 3rd party scenery for the Canaries where things like taxiway lights show as black boxes if ground shadows are enabled. This scenery also shows the building shadows in a different place than they should be.Thanks

Hi,Sounds like the texture does not have the alpha channel defined correctly, since that is what determines the transparency. It would be probably best ot ask the author if he has a fix for this.

If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done.
