I can't get any of the A380's that I had in FS9 to show up in FSX. Can anyone tell me of a model that works there? Thanks.

If you're just copying the files over to the "Airplanes" folder, you may also have to manually copy gauges etc., and then adjust the panel.cfg, sound files

My suggestion is to add an "Aircraft" folder to your main FS-X folder, set it up in the fsx.cfg file, and install (versus merely copying)  the FS9 models there.

I tried that first. I just finished playing around with it some more and found a model that FSX would see but got no textures. Also got the TU 144 to see but no textures. Got any idea on how to get the textures to work in FSX?

You didn't say which A380 you tried. I just installed Mike Stone's FS9 model to the FSX Demo & it works fine as you can see.

That is the one I installed and I got no textures. Just a plain white. No color

If you're sure you installed it correctly I can only assume the texture format is not compatible with FSX on your system. I only have the Demo so perhaps somebody with FSX can try it for you.
