Strobe Lights

Just bought the Phenom 100. Whenever I go to turn the strobe lights on, i get square strobe flashes with the FSX logo on the strobes. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Hi CitationMustang,

 

The square shape is usually a sign of a texture file failing to load.  The FSX logo is a new one on me. However, It's possible one or more Phenom textures failed to install correctly.  Try uninstalling and reinstalling the aircraft.  When you reinstall, be sure to right-click on the installer and select Run As Administrator.  It might also help to restart the computer between steps and shut down your virus protection during the reinstall. Hope that helps.

Hi Bill,

 

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, no luck. Still getting square strobe lights. 

 

I've linked an image to show you what I'm talking about.

Maybe I'm missing the strobe light texture?

That's the DX10 transparency texture which should be replaced with a correct one lol
