Make sure you saved the color format as a 8-bit/256 color bitmap, not a 24-bit (16million) color bitmap.

What file ending would that be in PSP 9??

I can only find "Windows or OS2/2 Bitmap 9 (*.bmp)"

It's still saved as a bmp file, just that the depth of colour has to be reduced to 256 colours.

In PSP7: Colors/ decrease color depth/ 8bit (256)

I am having the same problems. I am saving it as 8-bit/256 color bitmap yet the textures are not visable when I fly. Is it a problem with PSP9?

There are 10 types of people. Thoes who know binary and thoes who don't

Personally I doubt its PSP9, Arnt CFS1 aircraft like FS98 in that they use .*AF or .r8 textures? i havnt flown CFS1 in ages, so cant remember exactly.

Igorski, Thanks for reminding us. Always overlook the obvious.
The files need to be converted to .af format.
See this thread and attachment.
