Re: OFFUT FSX conv issue
Hey Tango234 You are a legend. I did not pick up the runway issues as I had only manipulated the original file supplied in the Offut package. So clearly the FS9 ADE file is faulty and on examination yes this is the case. The runway orientation and runway links are incorrect and need to be realigned ...

Re: General MAIW Package Issues
Hey Steve
It turned out to be a file association issue. Still strange as it was not the same association as for *.BMP files. But anyway I removed the $$A association and all is good.
Thanks for your help.

OFFUT FSX conv issue
Hi Guys I have converted the OFFUT Package to work in my FSXSe. My conversion consisted of disabling FS9 specific files and creating a new Airfield BGL along with a *.CVX that includes flatten and old airstrip exclusions. I have ignored the FS9 landclass directory. I have adjusted transparencies on ...

Re: General MAIW Package Issues
Hey Steve
Our home server uses Linux, but just to try I downloaded to my WIN10 x64 downloads directory and achieved the same results.
All the texture files are listed as *.$$A once I activate the installation *.exe file.
Beats me, but I only have this issue with MAIW stuff.
Cheers
Andrew

Can you suggest a reas...

Re: Mother Russia
Hi Steve and John, thanks so much
Much better with an actual prop disc to view than a black square. As you say might need a bit of fine tuning but its a whole lot better than what I had.
Thanks again, happy Easter and cheers

Re: Mother Russia SKJ/SBAI AN-12
Hi guys, sorry if this is in the wrong place. I have downloaded the SBAI/SKJ AN-12 series for Mother Russia flight plans, which I am using in my FSXSE. My problem is the aircraft displays a black square instead of a rotating propeller. I believe this is suggestive of a missing texture file and indee...

Re: Misawa Air Base Support Thread
Hello Guys
I have d/l MISAWA RJSM and noticed missing waypoint data in the traffic file. (see pic) As this is the first ever MAIW file I have seen missing info I thought I would ask if this is normal or am I indeed lacking something.
Cheers
Andrew
