FSX Default Douglas DC-3 Blurred Texture Fix

Sharper replacement texture files restore crisp detail to the default Douglas DC-3, eliminating the common blurred look across multiple liveries while keeping the original aircraft intact. Designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, the package updates the main exterior textures for a cleaner, more authentic classic airliner presentation.

Replacement main texture files for the default Douglas DC3 to fix the aircraft's blurred appearance. By Paul Craig.

First make back up copies of your Douglas DC3 texture files. Douglas DC3 located at OS (C)/Program Files(x86)/Microsoft Games/Microsoft Flight Simulator X/SimObjects/Airplanes/Douglas_DC3. Then follow the instructions below:

Unzip downloaded files to a temporary folder.
Open folder "Texture 1".
Copy and paste the file "Douglas_DC3_1_T.dds" into the "Texture.1" folder, say yes to overwrite existing file.
Repeat the above steps for "Texture.2" to "Texture.4".

For some reason, the texture numbers do not go in sequence, (maybe its just my installation) so I have included a thumbnail jpeg in each of the texture folders. Now enjoy your DC3 without blurs!
