How do you open the picture - which paintprogram? It looks like a unintentional made pencil line. I had this sometimes if I wish to select a part of the picture and don't look accurate at the right tool.

Thank you Tom fo this explanation. I often have the problem running FSX an I try to open ADE. Sometimes FSX vanished without an error message.

I made some tests and the only problem for the converted aircraft could be the animation. Freezing the old animation (rotation of the propellers) eliminates the ai-problem.

OK Tom, I think this would be the best solution. I also had to *freeze* the animation. The waterbird is now a little bit slanting but it (thumb up). If it fly it is sometimes shaking and I wouldn't fly with this quaking bird. A new problem could be that the aircraft can't land - nearly touch and...

Thank you for answering, I will try that. BTW I am so interested in this version because the developer made it exact for AI-aircraft. He eleminated the animation for gear down and up and set the Contact Points deeper (or lower? excuse my bad English). In the meantime I found a new version of...

Thank you Rick for your advice, for me and my knowhow its a bit complicated. First, find what works and then go from there, is my advice. If I use the original texture, it works, but the props are horrible (squares). If I import the mdl-file to MCX and change a little for instance with the...

Hi, sorry but it doesn't work. I substituted exactly as you said. I replaced the air-file from the CV-340. It looks fine (a bit differently as yours) Perhaps I used the wrong CV-340 version, it is the version for AI-Aircraft. The props look the same before start and started. Wth the original...

Hi, now I got it! Heureka! The squares are away and the propdisk looks fine. I think I must give up. I think I have done the same. And now I got it! Heureka! The squares are away and the propdisk looks fine. But now it couldn't work as AI-plane properly. I am using the explorer from...

Sorry one question again. The props in the MCX are showed as a square. If I substitute the the prop file the square remain. How can I get rid of the square? I can delete the prop with MCX but how can I set the other (e.g. CV-340), which I have? The name of the prop-file is within the mdl-file...

Thank you I will try it again.

The props look fine. I downloaded the version for PD3, but I think this is not the Waterversion. If you convert the texture to a true DXT3 format do you mean bothe textures (fuse and the prop) or only the prop-file? I tried this the last week with DXTBmp, named it as the original file but it...

The (freeware) model I have downloaded from Flightsim.com (aiacl215.zip). It contains two versions for land and for water. It was mentioned as an AI-model for FS2004. The same model is availabel at AVSIM. In the meantime I found an alleged updated model for FSX. But it wasn't true. It contains...

Sorry Tom, but in this case it doesn't work. In the past I had with other models no problem.

Thanks Rick, I used Photoshop (an old one)! Which Layers are needed? Picture D is the original bmp with specified Alpha with DXTBmp.

Thank you Tom, but you see at picture C the alpha there is totally black and the picture yet not transparent but white. If I click in the paintprogram DXTBmp at the preview button the Transparency Preview shows transparent but after saving the picture it isn't transparent anymore.
