SP2 Woes

[Quicksand]

I should have done a lot more research before I installed SP2! Now the biggest majority of my aircraft have issues with props, and/or canopy reflections. Do any of the free/pay developers have updated texture files, or am I just on my own for now... from a frustrated newbie......

Any planes developed for FS9 and compiled with the FS9 compiler will have problems. You will need to look for FSX Native aircraft in the future. You can most easily tell by looking in the model folder. If it has two models and a config, then it is native. Otherwise it is most likely for FS9 or a FS9 portover.

Props can be helped by increasing the darkness of the alpha. I use DXTBMP (Martin Wright) to open the bmps and Irfanview as the editor. I use a value of -180 as a starting point then save your corrected alpha and reload it.
