No undercarriage!!!

[kennyhall]

I decided to resurrect my CLS 767 package........

Installed OK - shed loads of paint jobs now edited to ones that I will/may use.....

Installed a livery for my VA.........NO undercarriage on just THAT single aircraft!!!

[It taxis brilliantly, can take off and land, too ]

Any ideas, please?

I seem to remember that aircraft ported over from FS9 to FSX sometimes didn't have wheels - or was that FS2002 to FS2004?
Something to do with the model file?

Below is the section from the aircraft.cfg file showing the CLS (default) installation then the added texture details...

Don't have the plane, but...Missing textures? Sounds like it. OR it could be a missing/corrupt texture.cfg.
Check the new livery's folder against a known good texture folder...Don

Don,
thanks ~~~ when rotating round the aircraft in Spot View I was eventually able to discern the actual undercarriage albeit transparent and barely visible Further investigation suggested "Alpha channels" not correct (whatever they are!).

I have now posted the texture folder to one of my VA colleagues who does painting and he will sort it for me

Coincidence??? I installed the iFly 737 the very day after starting this thread and ~~~~~ (drum roll) ~~~~ NO undercarriage!

The iFly forum had many similar "complaints" which I resolved by loading a lil' ol' Cessna first and then changing to the iFly.
Miraculously, the undercarriage suddenly appeared - about two seconds after the iFly aircraft loaded!!!

Since starting with FS twelve years ago this is the first time I have had to load a Cessna "first" even though it was usually recommended to load the "default" aircraft first in order to "enable" gauges.........bearing in mind that the default in FSX is the AirCreation Trike already airborne over Friday Harbour.........

Three greens and soft landings...

Always make an install " as administrator ".
Sometimes the Windows 7 UAC function (User Account Control) can be the problem: disable it when installing!
It can also be a virusscanner or other safety program.

In my case of the iFly 737 NG, i had no undercarriage nor gauges, this was caused by PC Tools THREATFIRE.
After days of frustration, but with very good support from the iFly team in the forum, i discovered it did filter something in the installation but without warning me! Now i don't use it anymore.
