RattleAndHum 1 Posted October 18, 2014 After deinstalling v1 and installing v1.10 of the product - as described by Mr. Kok - I noticed that the vapor trails at the end of the wings are black. It seems that a texture is missing. Best regards, R&H Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miksu77 56 Posted October 19, 2014 It seems like textures are corrupted somehow I had same problem with black contrails once, i managed to fix them by reinstalling default FSX contrail textures again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RattleAndHum 1 Posted October 19, 2014 I don't think that corrupt textures are the reason for my problem because I copied and overwrote the two mentioned files from P3D to FSX with the same result: Black vapor trails. In P3D the vapor trails of the A318/A319 are fine. Best regards, R&H Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mopperle 3400 Posted October 19, 2014 Must be something in FSX. Checked it on a flight today and saw no problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alu 3 Posted October 24, 2014 hi, look in your Effects Folder/Texture. This is a missing smoke effects.bmp! I have the defaults bmp on a save place. when you need it, PM! I had this problem after installing MyTraffic 2013, black exhaust and vapor trails. In the Effects/Texture folder the smoke.bmp was missing.
