Black Textues & Taxi Speed (Read 181 times)

I have two problems:-

1) On two aircraft that I have downloaded, some of the textures are black, i.e wings and fuselage. Does this mean I need to upgrade me graphics card or just corrupt textures?

2) I have used the TaxiSpeed prgram to fix the taxi speed of the AI, but it doesnt work when the aircraft are on the apron! Anyone know whats going on?

I've come across this particular problem with certain aircraft on various systems, not only in FS2002. I think this is most likely caused by incompatabilty of some texture formats with certain video cards. It can sometimes be fixed by converting the textures to a different format. Make sure you have the latest drivers for all your hardware, especially the video card. Also try installing DX 9 from the M$ site.

I did check out a utility for changing the taxy speed of AI aircraft but forget the name. It seemed to work fine for me but I don't have much use for it.
