FSX-MS Realair turbine Duke/legacy VC texture problem?

[pwafer 1]

Hello all,

The aircraft involved are the Realair Turbine Duke V2, and Legacy V1 and V2. With the Duke the instruments show for a second and then disappear. The GTN shows ok.

 

With the Legacies, the instruments don't show at all, but the end results are slightly different. Can anybody shed any light on my problem? Has anybody seen this before? See pics below.

I'm running FSX SP2, with DX10 + Steves fixer.

No, but I would revert to your default shaders because that symptom is a shader problem. It's been so long since I used FSX and Steve's DX10 fixer that I can't remember how to do that. But somebody else with Steve's utility can tell you how. Maybe just switching to DX9 mode would do it and then start over with DX10.

Or, better still, if you think it may be a DX10 problem, ask Steve himself on his Official DX10 Scenery Fixer forum: https://www.avsim.com/forums/forum/644-the-official-dx10-scenery-fixer-support-forum/

Gents,

Thanks for your replies. Tried the shader thing - renamed the SHADER10 folder in C:\users\philip\appdata\local\microsoft\fsx. FSX made a new one but no change to the issue. I then went on to research my issue on the indicated forum, and was back and forth to Steves' DX10 Fixer software UI. On the diagnostic readout it mentioned Toned Shadows disabled, and this particular dialog box mentioned opaque dials. Tried that - toned shadows enabled - back in business!!

Off topic - I tried to embed pics  in this post as per my OP but they got refused as "not a supported format"!! What am I missing??

For dropbox pictures only - change the last digit in the link from a zero to a one PRIOR to pasting in the forum.
?dl=0   --->  ?dl=1  The forum will take care of the rest.

Hi Spokes,

OK! Lets try that!

Hmmm....that does something different to the links in the OP. "DL=1" allows download instead of just opening the picture in Dropbox.

 

But....it works!

Thanks.
