• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

The original for that one has a shared aircraft.cfg file, and I don't see any replacement or modified version in your new stand alone file set. Also there is no associated cockpit file.
 
Okay, I tracked the game crashing down to the file name you used not being the same length as the original. When you inserted it into the m3d to replace the original filename it changed the bit length and it fails a checksum test when the game tries to read it.

Just shorten the dds file names match the original length and remake the m3d copy using the new ones.
 
MajorMagee, thanks very much for looking into it and putting it through your analyzer. I have found with win 7 it doesn't tell me much what has gone wrong compared to win xp, may be I'm looking in the wrong place or wrong settings. When I referred to stand alone I meant static, sorry my terminology.

I have something else I would like you to look at I will post the file to you tomorrow here or new thread, facility problem using Ankor/Gecko shader30 package. Facility works in off mode but when activated on mode freezes then crashes to desktop. Will post more in the morning.
thanks.
