KLM 744 not working properly (Read 517 times)

Hi All,

As usual I am having issues (I think it is user error

) Anyhow, love the looks of the new KLM 744. I downloaded and copied into simobjects/airplanes as usual. However, it did not appear in my aircraft list once I opened FSX. I tried to trouble shoot by updating the panel and sound.cfg files and it appeared to work. However, once I load the plane all I can see are the wings and the planes guts. No pretty blue "hull".

If anyone knows how to fix this I would be very grateful.

Thanks!

Well, it sounds like an issue with the model. You may not have the right one. But there's a few more possibilities to consider:
Are all the textures there? Are they named properly?
Do you use DirectX 10 preview?
Is there any hardware or software on your machine that would be considered 'unusual'?

If the engine doesn't start, check the master switch. True story.

Thanks! You were absolutely right. Textures are fine. DirectX was fine. It was the model. I had accidentally messed that up. I still had to steal a panel.cfg file from another plane to make it visible, but now it works great.

Just tested it and it's fine ... just in case anyone else thought the file had a problem. There is nothing wrong with the model.

Think Global. It's the world we live in.
