no textures on base 51

Post by icypilot »

I recently had a problem with my Spitfire wich is an accusim version, I finally had to do a complete re-install of FSX to get my shift+# keys back, good news is that it worked for my Spit but I still have a Major issue with my P-51, that is the older version, i,e; not accusim, problem is when selected at the free flight selection screen it shows a grey, colorless model, like a clay model, if you select fly now you get some gauges floating in space and nothing else. I recently upgraded my PC and as a result I now run FSX @ 1920x1080 with ultra high settings I have tried to adjust settings but it seems to have no effect, might my zip file become corrupted? can I re-download? where do I look to find the skins? I see that you can change them but I never tried (actually only flew this 51 once before I got my new pc) never tweaked it at all, ideas? icy out.

This reads exactly as an absent SP2 or Acceleration update for FSX. I experienced this too, before applying SP2 - problem was solved afterwards.

You may need to apply SP1 first;

Found the problem! old machine I had FSX basic when I got new machine I bought FSX deluxe with acceleration, FSX patch for p-51 on A2A download page fixed it but one question, selection screen shows "flying undertaker" but you fly "snooks" are there 2 skins? how do you change them? icy out.

Hello Icy,

it is one aircraft. Here is the paint you will have for the older WOP2 model;
