Found the Texel Slider (it was deep in the settings), pushed it all the way right, loaded 1.08US and RP3. HUD's looking good. Haven't seen any other effects from the Texel setting. Interesting stuff already from the upgrade. Thanks a bunch.

One thing I have seen that I will pass along (I don't have a TNT card)... If you don't have stars or runway lights, slid it back the other way.

Hi Smoke. Welcome aboard! I am glad I could be of some assistance.

I would STRONGLY suggest to you and to everyone, that you do download the 1.08i2 patch and ONLY run RP3 using F4patch (download F4patch here: http://www.bierling.net/joel/index.htm).

The RP patches are a work in progress, and if you only run the RP patches, then each time a new one is released you will have to go through the process of uninstalling it, and installing the new one.
Also, say you have a tactical engagement (TE) that requires RP3, but you have only installed RP4...you will then have to uninstall RP4 and reinstall RP3....only to reverse the process when you want to fly a TE made with RP4...what a major pain!
With F4patch running on top of 1.08i2, to run RP3 you just click on the RP3 box. To run RP4 instead (when it comes out), you should be able to just click on the RP4 patch instead...very simple.

So I strongly suggest you just use 1.08i2 and turn on/off RP3/RP4 using the F4Patch program. I have had zero problems using this method with RP3.

BTW smoke if you want to join a very easy going but very skillful and organized squad, check out the squad I am in...the url is in my signature below.

If you have any other questions, feel free to email me: paul_sterman@yahoo.com

Oh also, I have 12 TE's loaded up on my web page. Feel free to download them and give them a spin. Here is the url: http://www.geocities.com/paul_sterman/index.html

Happy flying!
