Mayday Mayday Mayday! *REX Problem*

Recommended Posts

This is getting beyond a joke now. 

 

I recently got my computer back from a repair and have since been having problems installing rex textures into fsx. Thing is, fsx is still displaying default textures and I can't change it for the life of me!

I'm running my textures at 4096 in my fsx.cfg file.

I'm using overdrive textures too.

 

Seriously though, I've reinstalled REX + OD numerous times and reinstalled fsx.

 

BEFORE you all ask I've already searched around the REX official forums.

 

You'd be a hero if you could sort this.

 

THanks a mill!

Maybe you're not running the REX software as an administrator? Right-click on the software icon -> run as administrator. Then proceed as you always do.. Good luck!

Have you asked for help over at the REX forums??

Did you register for support with them and explain what is wrong.

seems to me if you have a support issue with REX,what better place for advice than with the people who made it.

There is a bug in REX OD associated with wave animation. Install your wave animation set before installing OD. All other textures can be installed following the OD installation.

You did tell REX where FSX is right?

Hi, Tim!

 

What are you referring to?

 

I thought you already knew about this.
 
When installing textures in REX Overdrive, if "Wave Animation (Shader 2x Only)" is checked, an error log is generated and none of the REX textures are installed into FSX*. The wave animation installation works properly in REX 2, so the following procedure works:
 
1. Install REX 2.
2. Install the REX wave animation textures into FSX.
3. Update REX to prepare for the Overdrive installation.
4. Install Overdrive.
5. Install all other REX textures into FSX, making sure that "Wave Animation (Shader 2x Only)" is unchecked.
 
*Note: "Sparkling" is the only wave animation I ever use, so I haven't checked to see whether this applies to the other wave animation textures as well.

Nope, this has been fixed versions ago!
