Frank Otero Posted February 21, 2012 at 04:28 PM Posted February 21, 2012 at 04:28 PM A curious bug afffecting my Aeroworx B200 (converted to FSX). When raining, the windows in virtual cokpit go blue. The 2D cockpit is not affected viewing forward, but the same bug if looking out of the side windows. This only happens with this plane, regradless of Wx engine. Snow presents no problems. Windows 7 NVidia GT 425M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Gerrish Posted February 21, 2012 at 06:43 PM Posted February 21, 2012 at 06:43 PM might have gotten mucked up in the conversion. have you tried to reinstall it? Richard Gerrish Developer, STM Applications Group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Otero Posted February 21, 2012 at 08:34 PM Author Posted February 21, 2012 at 08:34 PM Hi Richard, Tried reinstall and the same thing. When I introduce the rain, the view will flicker and then stay blue. The rest of the cockpit is fine, just the windows. I may have to install FS9 once I can get my hands on it.

Charan Kumar Posted February 21, 2012 at 08:52 PM Posted February 21, 2012 at 08:52 PM Frank, did you have a look in the textures folder to see if it uses an alternate texture for the rain-window, altho I myself find it silly saying such a thing, but hey, there's always a possibility When is your next Flight||VATSIM HitSquad Member, ZOA/ZAK/GANDER/P1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Otero Posted February 21, 2012 at 10:47 PM Author Posted February 21, 2012 at 10:47 PM Charan, I looked into the texture files, but only found a few rain textures in the general texture file. the texture file in the aircraft file contains no rain textures. I am not sure what I am really looking for anyway lol. However, I see that all textures are .bmp and I cannot open them because "file is damaged, corrupted or too large" Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charan Kumar Posted February 21, 2012 at 10:58 PM Posted February 21, 2012 at 10:58 PM DXTBmp, a free tool, can open the files, as they must be mipmapped or something. Usually a file with gl[Mod - Happy Thoughts] in the name will be the culprit. If it's only happening with one aircraft, it might be under the aircraft's textures folder or one of the texture folders. It could also be a missing texture file, which hopefully isn't the case. For now, don't fly in the rain When is your next Flight||VATSIM HitSquad Member, ZOA/ZAK/GANDER/P1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Otero Posted February 22, 2012 at 12:06 AM Author Posted February 22, 2012 at 12:06 AM Hehehehehe. or I can fly in the 2D cockpit looking straight ahead only. I will keep messing with it. Interesting, it does not happen all the time, I just got it to work and after a minute went back to blue windows in VC.

Frank Otero Posted February 25, 2012 at 07:48 PM Author Posted February 25, 2012 at 07:48 PM Well, the fix was just a few key strokes away. I just needed to search with the benefit of my brain. http://www.flight1.com/view.asp?page=library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
