Mine did the same, when i checked the texture.cfg file in the texture folders the first line said "fallback.1=..\sharedtextures" which is a folder i didn't have in the original Wyvern download i had a texture.1 folder so changed the line to "fallback.1=..\texture.1" and copied to all texture folders everything now shows OK.
(Although with hindsight it would have been easier to have just changed the folder name!!!)
 
Texture config file. Uh-oh. Is the Wyvern set up in shared texture format, or did I modifiy my install at some point in the dim distant past and forget. Look in a default texture folder for the texture config file, open it, and compare it against the repaint texture config. Also look for a texture file in the main folder labeled 'sharedtextures'. I think thats the way it was formated from the installer. If not, yah, do the mod to the texture config. Or, make a folder named 'sharedtextures', move all the textures from the 'texture' folder except 'Fueslage' dds, 'Tail'dds, and 'Wings'dds over to the sharedtexture folder, remove the redundant textures from the other texture folders, and copy the texture config from a new repaint to each of the default repaints. Keeps the installs down to managable sizes. The Wyverns been in my FSX for so long, I've forgoten what it was formated like.
 
Great looking repaints! :applause:

(But you do know they don't speak Dutch in luxemburg, right..?) ;)

Yep, that did the trick. What I did was make a copy of the texture1 folder called is sharedtextures. :)
 
They speak Luxemburgian, of course :icon_lol: - but most people over there also speak French, English and German.
May be that's the reason Luxemburg is home for many Europeann organizations.
