Missing texture might be causing CTD

[M_Sauce 6]

OK, so I was running some tests on a scenery today with the "ShowMissingTextureAlert=1" switch activated in my FSX.cfg file, and my PMDG NGX keeps spitting up a missing texture flag. I tried opening the 737-600, 737-700, and 737-800. They all put up the same warning. I can fly the airplane around but after a little while I get a crash, especially when trying to open the map or access the menu.

 

I've included the missing texture message screenshot, the sim is looking for a file called "$GAUGEFIFTEEN".

 

Anybody else can duplicate this message?

Any body test this yet? Any word from the developers on why this is?

Guess Im the only one!

 

Support ticket filled out, hopefully we can get to the bottom of this.

No I have also this missing texture in the VC. When you activate ShowMissingTextureAlert=1 in fsx.cfg, you get this message, because the model of the VC asks for it !

This texture is in the model, but the model do not call it, Modelconverter does not ask for it.

 

3 other textures are missing and asked for by Modelconverter

- $gaugenine

- $lightland

- $thirdparty

Perhaps also that they are in the .dll in the gauge directory : PMDG_737NGX,_2,_3 ???

 

I have not seen any missing texture on the screen
