Direct X 10 Preview with grey models

Featured Replies

I recently decided to activate direct x10 preview on FSX because I wanted to see self shadows and other things in some of my aircraft. 

I did a test flight with the World of AI aircraft installed and saw this: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1310029784

The plane is grey/white. 

I'm also noticing this on some of my Freeware addon aircraft as well. 

At this point I believe that these birds are older and not ready for Dx10. And I'm also questioning if Dx10 is worth it for FSX-SE.

Are you also using Steve's DX10 fixer?  Just turning on DX10 will cause what you are describing.

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

The fixer was in use for the screenshot. Perhaps that model wasn't made with DX10 in mind. I did some looking on the Steam FSX Forums and found that that could have been the case.

I'm going to switch to DX9 for now. I'll probably go back to DX10 if I get more addons that are ok with it.

I may also get Prepar3d sometime in the future...once I master FSX
