How did you all manage to get it to work in fsx without looking black?

Those textures are not compatible with the new version. You must have the original version:

Thanks Milton,
I knew there was a catch somewhere. I thought I could convert the textures but that didn't work either.
Bummer.

Edit: I ported it over to FSX the props don't look so good but I will try to change them out with some other props

There's nothing to "port" - Milton's model was recently released in both an FS9 version and an FSX "already-ported-but-not-quite-a-native" model. If you have the right version, the props are fine. Are you using this one? http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=39&linkid=15104

Props are fine in my machine, am running FSX Accel, but not DXT10. Unless, to try to use all the available paints for the old FS9 version, you're using that one in FSX - then you'll have the props issue. Go with the new model, old paints won't work, but it's even better the original, and hopefully, new paints will emerge.


cheers,

DL

That's just; I couldn't use the Newman's repaint in the dash 7 for FSX ergo, the black bird. Wild bills Newman's repaint will only work in the FS9 version per Milton's note above. ^

Boys and Girls, Moms and Dads,

I give you the converted to DDS Newmans Dash 7 from the Dash7v2a collection. Props now look like they were made for FSX. Flying to KMEM, you can
see the Pyramid Building (soon to be a Bass Pro Shop - upper left corner). Actually, I can repopulate all the textures from the Dash7V2a into DDS format, works
real fine, lasts a long time!!
