AI traffic experts, please help.

Good day to all,

I'm calling out to any AI traffic experts to help me figure out this problem I'm having. First of all, this is my first time manually putting together an AI traffic airline. I downloaded a Sunwing AI traffic fleet as well as the FAIB 737-800 base model package as per the instructions. I followed all instructions exactly as per both developers. All of the winglet model planes are showing up without issue, but the scimitar models are only showing tail, windows and inner winglet textures. Any ideas as to what might be the problem. I've attached a screenshot for reference.
Thanks,

Scott

Hi,

I've been doing custom ai since the days of "ProjectAI" back in 2001/02 which is long dead. The first thing I might try is to download a different texture pack, install that and then fire up the sim and see what you get. The other thing it could be is that if you have an FBAI model, make sure you are installing the right texture into the proper model..For example, maybe the repaint you have in the 737-800 scimitar model is meant for the 737-800WL model instead. That could be why you see the tail and not the fuselage.

In any case, I have Sunwing installed perfectly and working fine in P3D so if you are having problems still let me know and I can email you the repaint I use.

Regards,
Sean

Thanks Sean, I will verify that the scimitar model is in the proper folder and try again. I'll let you know what the end result is.

Thanks again,

Looks like an alpha layer problem. I too use the FAIB model with the Sunwing paints in FSX and P3d and they work fine.

Okay, so I went ahead an started over from scratch with the installation of the FAIB 737-800 and the Sunwing fleet pack and all is good. Not sure what I did differently this time but obviously my virginity as an AI traffic compiler was to blame. Thanks again for the replies. Cheers!
