I was installing MTX 5.1b, reading the thread, modifying the fallbacks of vehilces and boats and thinking about the easter eggs. I attest there are no texture.cfg in the AI installed by MTX. But I recall someone wrote about managing the jetways in the next MTX patch a few months back. I had to modify manually to shut them back then. What about the current patch? I can see there's only "Restore MyTraffic X airports with higher performance". What does exactly it change?Dirk.

Jaap,The lightmaps, I think, were part of the problem I had. All of my lightmaps are in my standard fsx/texture directory. Thus, the fallbacks are important.But there's also this article at the fsdeveloper wiki:http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?...)#texture.cfg_2In a nutshell, there are some other textures that FSX uses, and these are located in the root textures folder. However, the bug in FSX is that the root textures folder is not an automatic fallback (instead, a developer directory was left as the fallback by mistake). Hence, the fallback to this directory may be important.Dirk - I haven't made any progress on the fsx fallback proggy because now I'm dealing with assorted FSX appcrashes.Bryn.

Hi Bryn, AIM, for fluidity I would put them in the aircraft livery/texture folders if you have a lot of AI. >>In a nutshell, there are some other textures that FSX uses, and these are located in the root textures folder.

Hence, the fallback to this directory may be important.80% of the jetway action at the moment. Missed out in 'less animations' are i.e: B744, F100, B732(I believe) and a couple of others. Enough to make a couple jetways move at given settings... The easiest remedy in addition to using 'less animations' via MT-Com, alter those couple of AC.cfgs according to post #17 in this thread. You'll have to mod the 'Easter eggs' as well if you want those CPU cycles back. ;-) We'll look into this again now the final v.5.1b aircraft bits have been released. Cheers and kind regards Jaap

Thanks, Jaap. All is clear now. :)Dirk.
