• 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.

Texture alias?

Opposite

That's funny. In FSX I get rid of the 'texture.cfg' and combine the main texture with the texture of the paint (yes, singular) that I like. Then I just put (FltSim.x) section with 'texture.name'. That way I can get rid of the main texture (it will be 'included' in paints) and can get rid of the paints texture folders and (usually) only keep the one paint I like and can the others. Do it in FS9? Not even. I only keep 1 paint per aircraft. If I want some other paint, I go open zip and extract it. Same for FSX. But, it's nice to know how it works. Disk space is too inexpensive for me to worry about a 'extra' texture folder or two. It's the 'Show All' in FSX that gripes me and that is really why I do this. At the moment I don't have even one 'heavy iron' installed in FS9 or FSX. I hate '40-11' different 'liveries' of the same model. (WHY?!). Different folks.... .
