    Just downloaded the B-47 stratojet from alphasim, loaded it into fsx, and comes out only showing the interior.
    I have posted an email to them, and waiting on a reply,but I just thought someone here might have an explanation.

    Either you got the FS9 version or your video card is strong enough to support it.
    You may have your settings up to high and using valuable resources where they aren't needed and your card won't render the aircraft textures.

    Thankx Radarman... but It definetly is the fsx version(had to double check)
    My graphics card is a nvidia 8800gtx, so there shouldn't be any problems there, the strange thing is... out of the 4 planes I downloaded, two worked fine - the other two...well you've seen the pic.Somthin funky goin on!

    actually, these textures are correct for the "wonder woman" version of this plane.

    Turn off "preview DX-10" if you are using Acceleration or SP2.

    That should solve the problem. Very Happy

    Right, DX 10 can do it.
    The two that didn't work my be built to be very graphic intensive and even with with top card (old drivers?) if your slides are maxed out then there isn't anything left for the aircraft.
    A unlimited FSP setting doesn't help either.

    If you don't have a DX 10 card the option won't show up.
    Try tuning off the sound (it uses a lot of power) and put the FPS at 20.

    See if that helps.
