Help with 747

My guess is that even though you wanted the textures for the default 744, you unknowingly downloaded textures meant for another model of the 744 such as the Posky.

no i dont think i so i will give u the file name and do u think u could check it out for me?? and its of www.flightsim.com

here it is

ms74spac.zip

You seem to have the right download. Give me a few minutes, I'm just downloading it now and I'll have a look at it.

thanks heaps!!

Ok, I have all the textures showing. Now I am assuming that you:

1* ...have put the three new texture folders where they belong

2* ...have not yet added any other textures to this particular aircraft.

If my assumptions are correct, back up the aircraft.cfg and rename it: aircraft.orig.
Now open the other one (you have to make sure that the name will be just aircraft), delete everything in it and replace it with the following:
