[RESOLVED]Missing runway textures for some airfields

[Maulkin]

I upgraded from v1.2.x to v1.5.2 and it now appears that some (not all) runways no longer have textures. I tried using "DCS_updater repair" to fix it but it didn't help. Does anyone know how I might fix this?

 

I checked my Alpha and Beta install but neither of them are having this issue...

 

Thanks

Don't quite get picture about runway texture mentioned but I notice that every runway has no runway number (magnetic heading) that normally paint at the head of each runway.

did you have any user mods active before upgrading?

 

if so remove them now, and then try a repair.

Thanks Bignewy, as it turns out I did!

 

I had installed a runway texture mode a very long time ago and completely forgot about it. I rummaged around in my archives and managed to find the .zip file with the mod and found that if I deleted the following files in D:\Games\DCS World\Bazar\TempTextures the problem is solved:

WPP.bmp

WPP-KRAY.bmp

WPP-ZALIWKA.bmp

word2.tga

wpp_numbers.tga

WPP-CZS.bmp

WPP-RUL.bmp

WPP-RUL-2.bmp

 

After deleting these files I did not need to perform a repair. It just started working. :)

good to hear you are back up and running :)
