F/A-18 C/D Hornets missing textures on latest Matrix NA update

Post by delta_lima »

Hi all,

Been away for quite a few months, and have been thrilled with what's hit from MAIW. Thanks for all the updated aircraft.

Since I missed a few updates, I redownloaded the NA region, and a good number of the the USN/USMC legacy (C/D) Hornets are missing textures. Specifically those with stores (wingtip AIM-9, underwing LGB, and maybe a couple other stores. I noticed some CAF Hornets at Whidbey, and they seemed to be fine (maybe they're unarmed, I can't recall).

Anyone know where I can get the missing texture?

thanks,

dl

Thanks - I've only (for now) got the NA region installed, so I don't know if this problem persists in other regions - though I expect common textures like those stores textures would be referenced in the texture .cfg back to the common global texture folder, rather than copied over at every region where that plane exists. In this case, Asia, Europe, etc.

But I could be wrong.

Thanks so much for checking.

The common textures for the weapons and stores are in the Global package. Can you confirm that you have updated Global to the latest version (currently 3.9)?

Hi Greg,

Yes - doublechecked, and the version text file reads 3.9. I was going to uninstall and reinstall, but it looks like you've got to uninstall active regions to uninstall and reinstall the core. Since I've made some custom (to me) changes and wanted to not lose them if I could avoid it, I held off.

Anything else I can check?

thx,
