Ok, also sometime we need to get on TS and chat about how you are actually doing these compiles. In most cases I use SBX to do my compiles. The more in depth sceneries I use a work folder and the resample file to merge everything. It's been my experience that if you are using SBX to compile you cannot edit the inf file because it simply reverts back to it's default settings once you close it after making changes. There were also other things you mention in your post that may cause you the problems you're having.

thank you for the quick reply. I said that I remembered that pure white in PR turns red. I tried to overlay it with a light gray overlay but didn't work. I will try the null value and see if that works.

Richard, as we talked about previously. . .recompiling with the added night texture is actually all that you needed to do to have the night texture incorporated. If it didn't work then you missed something in the process. Yes, you can alter the inf file if you are working out of a work folder rather than allowing SBX to handle your compiles. Also, we spoke at one time about the "red" in winter textures, it's because solid white (255,255,255) is interpreted by the compiler as red. This can be corrected either by loading your winter texture into PSP and slightly lowering the brightness level as that the white is less than 255. . .or adjusting the "Null Value" in the inf file.

Judging by the 'wedding cake' sternwheeler on the extreme left of the photograph, I presume that your water baby is in the good ol' US of A!

For the last three days I have been trying to enhance the photoreal background with night textures and winter textures. After following an online instruction on how to create the night texture and help from Falcon409 on Teamspeak3, I was able to get the night texture created. Problem was now that I got it I thought that all I had to do was recompile the photo01.sbx and the night texture would be incorporated but that was NOT the case so I went back to hunting on the internet for help. I found a topic on night textures and winter textures that said I had to MANUALLY edit the photo01.inf and gave me an example that when I followed it merged the photo01_N.bmp perfectly into the new Photo01.bgl it created and I'm good. Now to W for winter texture. I found a video which in 3 minutes...

Thank you Mike. Here's a water baby -

I emailed Rob again to see if he'll allow me to upload the installed version to the Warbirds Library. That way it's here with his other works and available for everyone.

I am grateful to you! :ernaehrung004: Zsolt

I can do that. I'll PM you when i'm done! :wavey: Cees Zsolt you got a PM!

Yes, absolutely right, Mike. Lovely, but sad. Wasn't Beagle a perfect example of all that was wrong with the British aircraft industry and its management in the post-war decades? But enough of this. Over to Scotland.

Lovely. To think this was nearly 60 years ago - G-ASTX -the one and only Beagle B.242X It was brave of them to attempt to compete with the Cessnas and Pipers of the world. Good-looking machine, though.

Thank you, Uli. Here's something that is a little more and looks a lot more modern than the Cri-cri. And its designation shouldn't vex lefty!

Thank you, but not the package I am looking for!

That was the really Golden tip. I was able to download most files. Thanks, Huub

Looks like Uli has this one nailed. My reticence, Mike, is the result of many years grappling with French idiosyncracies ! In this case, my source (attached) barely mentions Salmson other than as engine supplier , whilst the ever-reliable AviaFrance seems blissfully unaware of the CFA !

Hi Cees, Can you send me the installed package? Zsolt

I did the installation and it worked flawless. It placed the plane in my steam edition in drive D? Cees
