Hi Tom. Thanks, but I don't seem to be able to get anything other than "No search results" when I follow these links.

Hi Roger. You mentioned the possible faulty texture file called 'zinc'. I have found several and I am not sure what to do with them now that I have found them. In the main texture folder I see 'zinc 2 128' and 'zinc'. In the texture folder of the Addon Scenery, I see 'zinc 2 128', 'zinc 2 128_LM', 'zinc', 'zinc_LM' and 'zinc03'. Any guidance on what to do with these files? Thanks.

Thanks again, Roger. I will have a go this weekend.

Hi Roger. Thanks for the info. I did not know any of that, so you have been helpful. Much appreciated.

Thanks Tom. Judging by what you, Roger and 31448 suggest, it's looking like it could be a faulty texture file. I will have to play around with my recent textures and scenery objects. Hopefully I will have something to report later.

Thanks. I'll check these out.

Hi Tom. Thanks for your reply. What you describe matches much of my experience. I figured there might be a texture file messing around in there. But here's a complication I don't understand: I notice that after I had improved one of the stock airports using EZ Scenery, a neighbouring airport lost all its textures on approach, even the aircraft sitting on the tarmac. While I thought it had to be that faulty texture file associated with the airport I had 'improved', the next flight I took in a different region also lost its textures, so my theory about a bad texture file gave way to a suspicion that my graphics card was playing up. What gets me is that the problem can be so random. Can you tell me more about converting textures in DXT format to 256 colours? Where do I look and how do I carry out the conversion?

Hi. Does anyone have any thoughts as to how to fix blurred terrain textures in FS2004. I can be approaching an airport and all of a sudden the terrain blurs. It takes a while to correct itself, but by then my enjoyment of the flight has taken a serious hit. I've attached 2 screenshots. One is the clear view and the other the same one blurred. My guesses are: (1) My graphics card is a AMD Radeon R9 200 Series and might not be as good as another type (2) My EZ Scenery addon might be incompatible now with FS2004 played on Win 7 Perhaps you guys have some insight. Would be glad to hear. My computer: Intel Core i7-4790 CPU 360 GHz; 16G RAM
