Can some one give me a quick tutorial on how to make the black prop disk in Fs9 aircraft work into Fsx. I have paint shop pro and do my sum of my own repaints.
cheers

if the prop texture uses an alpha, then darken it till it's barely visible, otherwise, you are out of luck as FSX handles transparent texture properties differently than FS9.

Ok. If the texture is totally black then there probably isn't an alpha or it's totally white. Depending on the type of prop you might be aswell to take a prop texture with an alpha channel from another aircraft. As Michael says you might want to darken the alpha to make it more transparent to avoid the "prop behind the clouds" issue with Fs9 models in FsX SP1 and 2 or acceleration.
