Sorry. Haven't been on due to homework and revision for GCSE's. I will try this tonight to see if it works! Sorry about not replying.

It is called texture.DDAY, is there anything I need to change about that? EDIT: what's the .air file?

This is the entry. The folder is also named texture.DDAY, and is the correct entry number. [fltsim.5] title=Extra 300S DDAY sim=Extra300S DDAY model= panel= sound= texture=DDAY kb_checklists=Extra300S_check kb_reference=Extra300S_ref atc_id_color=0xffff0000 atc_id=TB295 ui_manufacturer="Extra" ui_type="300S" ui_variation="DDAY" ui_typerole="Single Engine Prop" ui_createdby="Microsoft Corporation" description="If airplanes were horses, the Extra 300S would be a champion thoroughbred. It is, in fact, designed to be a champion in Unlimited class aerobatic competitions. The 300S combines light weight, a 300-horsepower engine, and exquisite control harmony in an aircraft that has won several World Aerobatic Championships. The Extra 300S is the aircraft of choice for Patty Wagstaff, one of the world's top award-winning aerobatic pilots."

I used the DXTBmp Texture Tool program. Edited in photoshop, then saved the the texture folder as the DXT5 DDS file!

I've recently repainted an Extra 300 aircraft into RAF Colours on FSX, but when I click on the plane to load it, FSX crashes, any idea why it does this? Every other aircraft works fine, renamed the repaint, done all that I need too, just doesn't seem to work! It also happens if I click details when selecting the aircraft. I did import the old alpha-channel too. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated!

Cheers for the reply. I did indeed import the alpha-channel from the original. I tried it with another aircraft to make sure, but the same thing happens. I will take a look at this part of the forum, I'm not to this, so still getting to learn about it! Cheers
