Hi

I have installed the new_enviro zip and was expecting to see reflections, but none show.

I have FS2002 settings at max. I have the lastest drivers installed and the lastest direct x.

I have a Gforce 4 mx440 graphics card and are completly stumped.

Can anyone help me ???

Two questions
Have you checked the show reflections box?
Are you sure this is for FS2002 & not for FS2004?

Ok I did not mean to insult you with the Questions.
If you put the files where they belong & still see no results. Maybe you should drop the author a line as to the problem. I have a similar program for FS2004 which is why I asked the second question. My program works great.
It might be a driver related issue but just a thought I am not telling you to change video card drivers.

The GeForce MX cards need a patch to the display.cfg file to enable reflections. It can be found here (3rd item from the top).

Hope this helps.
