ATR Textures not rendering

Post by Rey Ramon »

Has any one had this issue, my textures are not showing up. Just a white airplane for the F1 ATR. Not even for the virtual cockpit. I can get the standard cockpit to show up, but that's it. Do I need to run the installer again? Seems typical of my situation. Have some time to do a flight from my bid...and issues arise.

Rey, I have had problems with the F1 ATR at times, especially, if for some reason it lost the license connection to F1. I always had to re-download and re-install the files from F1 itself but this doesn't give you the American eagle paint scheme. This also could help the virtual cockpit.

If you are trying to use the add-on skin for the American Eagle, check the skin is still in the aircraft folder and it is being pointed to in the aircraft.cfg file. There are two skins available for the same plane and one uses the paint manager and the other is a simple cut and paste.

Good luck,
Rey Ramon

And I forgot to mention, after a new download and install from F1 for the ATR you need to run the ATR aircraft config program which sets it up finally. It is in the manual.
