Can anyone help me? My VFA-103 aircraft are showing up all black

After I installed the Vfa 103 texture they all show up black and now appear to be affecting othe hornets now

I think I figured it out on my own Yeah! Correct me if I was wrong but all I did was put textures into the texture file as well

CAPT, I myself with all the wonderful MAIW and non-MAIW packages, still cannot figure that one out. It's only on the Hornets and happens on my system at both NTU and NLC. I know it's not a texture issue as I have seen the -103 jets just fine throughout the sim. It's also intermittent, sometimes I load up at Oceana and all is fine, sometimes not.

Oh okay well since I have done it I am not getting it anymore will keep checking throughout the day will advise however has not done it at all since my post yesterday

Reconfirm what you did again sir?

I took the hornet texture from vfa 103 and placed it in the fsx texture file. As of 1100pst still no problem

What size is the offending texture file?

Good question how can I find out? Update as of 1300pst and continued use I don't have the problem anymore

Okay so my attempt failed all it did was replace 80% of the F Hornets with one paint of vfa 103. So back to the boards on this one. Has anyone contacted the developer of this?

It is 19.5MB

Wow...that single texture is as big as most packages..lol

I would say there is your problem, its going to take a month to load up that texture. You need to convert them to DXT5 with mips and alpha for FSX.

The NBAI_FA-18EF_Hornet_T.bmp is only 1mb, just like the others. I was initially thinking it was a graphics card issue, as Oceana and Lemoore are pretty busy for me including the custom scenery.

Your right Chris sorry was looking at the whole folder. Just don't understand why of all the repaints this one only screws up
