FSX - Fix for Dissappearing Textures

Post by ChrisHunt »

Not sure if this is the correct forum section but... a very clever chap over at Avsim has posted a fix for dissappearing textures in FSX - and it works. It also has the benefit of making previously reluctant textures appear much quicker (e.g. Captain Sim VCs). The fix is extremely simple, just insert the following into the Graphics section of your FSX config file:

HIGHMEMFIX=1

The link to the discussion is here: http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=281229

Also in the same Avsim forum are other useful tweeks, particularly for those fortunate enough to have a graphics card with 1Gb RAM (alas not me).

Regards,
Chris

No problem Dave - I had a suspicion it would end up here. :)
