If it occurs again, please send me the library folder and tell me how you created the library.
This is what has been occurring for me
every time I create a library with textures all in one folder - it's why I keep getting these missing directory errors (which I erroneously thought were missing texture errors).
Ok I did this twice lets see if you can replicate:
1) Clear 4 folders and INI
2) Load up SAMM and open MAIW_AIA_P-8A_NAS Patuxent River
3) Select first texture, select night textures, select no ground shadow, select FS9 & FSX and save MDL
4) Repeat in succession for the remaining two textures
5) Open library compiler and select the three FSX models, name the library and select to place all textures in one folder
6) Create the library and load it into ADE's library manager
7) Place one each of the three aircraft in order left to right at an airport and compile
8) Load up FSX and add the library folder to the Scenery Library
9) Load up the airport and you'll get the following error message:
10) Continue through the error as it falls back twice searching for the textures
11) Close FSX and open the scenery library texture folder. Create a new folder "MAIW_AIA_P8A_USN_167954". Move the two textures for the aircraft into that folder and then remove the "MAIW_AIA_P8A_USN_167954%" prefix to return them to their original names
12) Load up FSX and load the airport and you should see all three aircraft textured
Note that for the record, I've tested compiling libraries of models (not all of them) without checking the main texture box and things seem to be working fine. Being able to place objects in preview mode is not a high priority, I can just as easily use ADE which doesn't care how the /texture folder looks. I just want to make sure this is a problem that needs to be looked at and would rather get a fix for the missing texture box that pops up when I try saving some models in SAMM, like the MAIW_PAI_C-17 AMC East Coast, which loads fine except for the cargo:
