Black Prop Using DX10 Preview and Steve's Fixer

Featured Replies

I didn't have any trouble before reinstalling FSX and using Steve's newest download.  I am getting a black prop with the Carenado V35B.

 

Is there a setting in the DXFixer that I am missing.  This is the only plane that I have installed where it's happening.

Turning on the missing texture alert did nothing.  Uninstalling the libraries left me with this.

I will do that tonight when I get home.

 

The odd thing was that the textures worked before I did the FSX reinstall.

 

Thanks,

Snuck home over the lunch hour.  I have attached a picture of the "Other" settings.  I then hit "Apply" and start FSX.  No warnings or anything.

You shouldn't have 8 bit Texture Fix selected - that's for testing legacy aircraft prior to converting 8 bit textures with the toolbox. However it wouldn't cause what you see which still looks to me like some missing textures.

 

What I wanted you to do was set

 

ShowMissingTextureAlert=1

 

in the [sCENERY] section of your fsx.cfg.

 

You can do it by editing the file or alternatively use the fsx.cfg menu in the DX10Toolbox.exe program which you can find in the directory you installed DX10SF into.

I finally read the manual and it explains in on Page 89.  Wrong version of flight sim though.

 

Ok so I remotely connect to my FlightSim box from work and use the DX10Toolbox.

 

It says I need the CARINTERIOR_K.BMP, CARINTERIOR_J.BMP, TEXTPANEL.BMP and several other files.  It then dawned on my what I did wrong.  In order to cut down on the number of planes that appear when starting FSX I moved several of the derault airplanes and the Carenado V35B without tip tanks to another directory.  The files that were needed are in the directory that I moved.  Should I leave this entact?  ShowMissingTextureAlert=1

 

Thanks for your help Steve.  Great program too and well worth the money.
