In Game Texture Troubles

Featured Replies

I have been having some problems with textures for a few aircraft not showing up. (Where the textures aren't showing up the faces are black, which I know is different from the white that shows when it can't find textures.) Specifically, the "MelJet Boeing 747-400 Northwest Airlines Version III", "MelJet Boeing 747-400F Singapore Airlines Cargo Version III", Mike Stone's "FS2002 Boeing 727-200 Package (v3)", and the Skylark helicopter. In the case of the 727's, only a few spots are affected that I can tell: The thrust reversers and possibly the inside of the aft end of the engines. (Maybe more that I haven't seen.) The 747's are just about all black and the skylark is black except for the pilot and rotors. I'm wondering just what could be causing this and what I can do about it, if anything. I suspect that the texture files in question may be in some DX format that my video card can't handle, and getting newer drivers isn't really an option. (I have an overworked Voodoo 3 that's not likely to be replaced anytime soon.) Many other planes work fine and while there are lots of 747's, there aren't as many 727's with NW repaints and AFAIK only one skylark helicopter, not to mention possible problems with other models that use the same texture format."Let me help you out. You're cleared to taxi any way you can to any runway you see."

Geeze, nobody's even viewed this yet? I'd really like a solution to this problem, as I think it's likely to get worse the more aircraft I get. (Like the Nomad I got which has the same problem.)"Let me help you out. You're cleared to taxi any way you can to any runway you see."
