Classic British Flight Sim

Just downloaded and flown Daves fabulous Hunter two seater T7.I'm having problems with the ground textures when i rotate from inside to outside views when airborne...the ground below and all around is completely blurred and out of focus for around 15 seconds,then it rights itself,any ideas?No other aircraft i have doe's this.

unfortunately, this has been a problem for some people with the FS9 Hunters.
The textures are saved as 32bit for maximum clarity, but that can strain some systems. If you convert the textures to DXT3 it should help.
You can use DXTBMP from here: http://www.fly.to/mwgfx

Thank's for getting back to me Dave,lovely models.

Went to link Dave,could you please advise me what to do to carry out the changes.

EDIT Disregard - I have the fsx version with dds textures - sorry

Will be very similar conversion, if you already read it, mind.

OK, try this to make things easier.

Download this file: http://daveg.cbfsim.org/files/convert.zip

Open the zip and copy the 2 files into the texture folder you want to convert.

Run the "Texture Converter.bat"file.

Select option 2

Done

That will convert all the textures in that folder to DXT3 format, overwriting the originals so make sure you have a backup first

Thank's for help once again Dave...one last thing,which textures do i need to convert?

All of 'em! All the Hunter textures that is, don't run the file on anything else.

The batch file will convert the lot automatically.

Don't forget to backup first

Opened up the converter,got the black box with instructions,selected number 2,pressed enter.Opened fs9,selected Hunter T7,got airborne,rotated views....and still the same,aircraft fine ALL ground textures totally blurred...have i missed something Dave?

Yes...there are the odd DXT1 textures in the Hunters and they have no Mipmaps...Those DXT1 textures need to be given Mipmaps and then your blurring of the ground will not happen.
