[TheFoufoure][I've find the solution. So, I convert the texture in DXT1 format for use in FS9. I edit the MDL file with a Hexadecimal editor, change the dds into bmp and save the file.
So now, this EC-135 work fine as an AI Helo in my FS9 sky.]
Unlike most FSX textures, the helos in Traffic X are still bitmaps, but I tried the hexadecimal editor to swap out the DDS references in the model and it worked well as far as displaying the textures, but then FS9 still wouldn't load the model after I'd compiled some test flightplans..
Ha! I'm not converting anything as yet. Using Foufure's method I got the textures to show in FS Painter, but that's all. FS9 still won't load the model. So I'm wondering if there is a step missing, or indeed if there is no step and it can't be done..
Hi Jon, I have a feeling it can't be done, every post I've ever read on this subject the model makers themselves have said it isn't possible.
I haven't a clue on model making but I'm sure a few of the lads on here will tell you the same.

Thanks for these just have to go get them. I purchased a JF pack to get the H-60 and AS365. There is a freeware AS350 that is a better looking ai model.
