M-346 FSX texture problem

Post by Andrea88_italy »

I downloaded and installed the M-346 package for FSX / PR3D but when I turn on the lights, I encounter a texture problem. I am attaching the photos

parts of the texture blackened when the lights are turned on. The problem does not arise when they are not turned on.

When YOU turned on the light? Are you using it as flyable aircraft?
It is only for AI use

Yes, but it's an AI aircraft. You should not turn the lights on. The lights will come on automatically when its dark. That is all.

The model is not designed for flying and if you try strange things will happen.

I don't know why you guys still try to fly AI designed aircraft and complain about strange issues happening. I believe this is the issue we had in almost every recent developed model topic.

This happen because you developers are become too skill to create ai aircraft too beautiful that looks too similar to those flyable. Hence too many are tempted to flight them :lol: :lol: :lol:

All of my manuals state on the front cover: "These aircraft are not designed to be user-flyable"

Miljan suggested an animated gif!

The old adage “RTFM” may need re-explaining to some folk. I agree the standard of recent releases could easily make some people to try them as “Flyable”. You guys are just so good !!

In all seriousness here, the models are flyable quality. However, they are compiled for the AI engine.

Before someone asks the question, no they can't be compiled for the flyable engine. A lot more detail and behind the scenes stuff goes into a model for that.

Can’t see the appeal of actually flying stuff in the sim. I’d far rather sit and watch the AI world go by!
