I all...Thank for the heads up..First of my deepest appology for my own bad with this texture fix.My only defence is my way of thinking and by that i mean my head is still in the FS2004 world and not inside a " 6 side cube " :)I humbled asked the forum maintenence to remove the file in question so we all does not use this fix. It should not harm you comuter in anyway, but nevertheless to be on the safeside.This issue is dearly noticed and no such error will hopefully occure in the future.Please excuse my english as well.PS..The funny part would be all those users that infact did get that performance boost, but it all explained why i did not notice any increasments to be proud of.. But hey, you cannot win everytime right?Well then thank for listning to my appology Kind regards Tom Knudsen

Oh, I'd read the SDK a dozen times, but about the time I got to "Cubic Environment Maps" my eyes had glazed over... *:-*So, at least I benefited from it! I now have a fuller understanding of the new FSX paradigm, and that can only be a "Good Thing..." :-beerchug
