Hi

Anyone managed to get the freware Handley Page 0/400 by Sim Tech working in FSX? I've manged to install it but large parts of the model are appearing transparent. Just wondered if anyone had found a way round this?

I don't have that airplane, but with portovers in FSX, large transparent areas usually (but not always) means that it's an "alpha channel" that needs to be lightened. Using DXTbmp, load the corresponding textures and take a look at the alpha. . . .if it's solid black or just very dark, lighten it considerably and then save and reload the airplane to see if that corrects the problem.
 
Thanks for you help Falcon... The Alpha channel was the problem, but only on some of the texture sets... thats was what through me. Got it all working fine now. Thankyou
