Since i got my fs2004, i never could be able to see the reflective texture in the windows and canopy of a aircraft. I have a ATI 8500 128mb, with the latest catalyst. Can anyone please help me out?

Do you have the show reflective texture set in the setup menu. Also make sure you have the latest driver for your card. 8)

This might sound silly, but are sure the aircraft you are using has reflective textures?

Okay, two more questions then;

Do you get any reflections at all in the sim?

Have you got reflective textures turned on in the sim?

I have found that not all parts have reflective textures. One other suggestion is to (if you haven't already) double check the video settings on your card. I have the ATI 9800 Pro. It includes a tab in the display settings dialoge box where I can manipulate certian settings which override game settings.

That's all I can offer Embarrassed

What do computers and air conditioners have in common?
They both will work perfectly, until you open windows.
