I didn't do anything differently at all for the right side versus the left side, yet the right side is completely blurred and the left side is crisp.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

If you are using DXTBMP to save textures, make sure MipMaps is unchecked. The MipMaps box is on the right side.

I was using Photoshop, I changed the filenames from left to right, and the problem still stayed on the right side. Then I read your post and saved it in DXTBMP with mipmaps off, and now it works, the right side is no longer blurry.

However, I have a new problem. The aircraft I painted in Photoshop had dynamic shine, and it looked good, once I saved it into DXTBMP, the plane now has SUPER shine, it looks like the whole plane has been chromed and then waxed with 4,000 coats of wax. Is there a way to tune this down?

If I save it in Photoshop, then it's the way I want it for shine, but I don't have a right side!

Any suggestions?

Thanks for the help sofar. 🙂

I reloaded MSFS recently, and now all of my panels and sounds work again, and my plane is normal shine. Whoohoo!
