alpha channels in bmp files only work for transparency in fsx. if you take a look in the texture files you'll see an aircraft now needs a seperate reflection map Wink

I think he means in the first one and that it's not opaque, you can see the scenery behind the tail.

Try copying envmap.bmp from your FS9 texture folder to your FSX texture folder, that does the trick to get rid of the transparency Smile


thanks to the guys at CLS for that Wink
