Model texture rendering problems?

[rphillips]

Im not sure where to post this, i did go through the forum here and double checked all of my settings and software updates to eliminate anything there.... I recently purchased the upgrades for the F-4E for FSX to get the ADV model and TacPack compatible, I also purchased tacpack itself. The aircraft flies fine and renders ok in FSX in and out of Direct X 10 Preview however, my problem started when I installed Tacpack itself. Once I installed Tacpack, I have problems with parts of the aircraft disappearing, ordinance disappearing etc Once I even lost all of the textures for the sky. I have not had any problems with the ADV T-38, F-100 in reference to TacPack.. Can someone steer me in the right direction on what is going on? Thanks in advance!

Hi Robert

First of all, looks like you have a rather outdated installer as we removed the dual TER mounted Mk-84 option for a single Mk-84. Second, what order did you install in? The correct order is base package->TACPACK update->ADV update. I would suggest uninstalling the F-4 (run the base package installer and click the uninstall checkbox on the first page) and then reinstalling in the above sequence once you make sure you have the latest files.

I installed the following files in the following order:

1. MilViz_F-4_Phantom_II_E_vA1.161007
2. MilViz_F-4_Phantom_II_E_vA1.161120
3. MilViz F-4 Phantom II E vA1.170323 Update
4. MilViz F-4E Phantom II vA1.170424_E
5. MilViz F-4E Phantom II vA1.170721_E
6. MilViz F-4E Phantom II ADV vA1.170830_EADV
7. MilViz F-4E Phantom II TACPACK vA1.170721_ETP

Then Tacpack itself...

I also updated the MVAMS and any updates that AVAMS indicated that I needed to have... Since I have owned the model for awhile I am not sure if I can go just to the latest download or go through the whole gambit as I generally keep whatever I have downloaded in regards to updates for all my models when the opportunity presents itself. Please let me know what you think... Ill wait to reinstall yet again till after I hear from ya...
