FAIB 747 GE model invisible

Featured Replies

Hey guys,

Running into an issue with the AI FAIB 747 GE (passenger variant) model being invisible in the sim (using p3dv4)

I can see it under the AI Traffic but when I go to that plane, its invisible.

Plane is installed correctly and aicraft.cfg matches texture file, etc.

Any ideas???

That sounds like a model issue. Which model is it (200/400/8)? Have you installed it through the AIG OCI Manager, or have you added it manually?

747-400 GE

 

Well, it was installed via OCI, I copied and pasted it into my own AI in simobjects folder, deleted OCI file and have a few paints installed on it.


I also downloaded the FAIB 747-400 GE model directly from the FAIB website and tried that...........nothing.

I assume that you have other versions of the FAIB 747-400 installed that are working fine?

I believe its just the Atlas Air 747-400 GE pax version and two Lufthansa liveries (old and new color)

Ah, so some liveries on the 747-400 GE variant are visible?

No it appears it’s on all my FAIB 747-400 GE paints.

doesn’t effect the 747-400f GE

Delete that folder and then let AIM verify all files. It will re-download your files for the FAIB 744 GE.

Ahh is there 2 separate model folders? 

I'm away for work at the moment I can check next week for you.

I agree there's a missing model folder I reckon.

For the FAIB 747-400, there are a total of 7 folders:

747-400 GE

747-400 PW

747-400 RR

747-400D GE

747-400F GE

747-400F PW

747-400F RR

None of these folder should be deleted. I would encourage the OP to re-download the repaints in question, making doubly sure they are for P3D, and then, in the 747-400 GE folder delete only those repaints and re-install them from the downloads.

Sometimes doing this manually beats the hell out of doing it by AIM....

Already did all of the above, no luck.

i saw it taxiing at mco, you can see the nav lights and beacon lights.

it also taxied very odd and did not follow the taxiways and went across the grass then disappeared.

this is the strangest thing I’ve ever seen and as far as I know only affects all FAIB 747-400 GE paints
