HELP!! A-4 textures disappeared in modelviewer

[BoNidle]

I updated DCS earlier tonight and found the A-4 had disappeared.

 

 

I figured the update had broken the mod and I downloaded the latest version and replaced it.

 

 

It appears in game and I can access liveries but when I load the A-4.lods into the model viewer all I see is the basic green squared/black cockpit model!!

 

 

I can put liveries onto it but they appear translucent with the green squared no texture finish visible beneath.

 

 

All other aircraft and models unaffected.

 

 

I have carried out a repair but it hasn't helped.:cry:

 

 

I have not encountered this issue before so any help greatly appreciated.

 

 

Cheers,

 

 

Bo.

Found a fix:

 

 

The A-4 mod is in the Saved Games DCS/Mod folder as it should be.

 

 

 

I have then loaded the A-4 mod folder into a new folder in the DCS alpha mods folder, and renamed this folder "Skyhawk".

 

 

This now allows me to access the model file with its textures loaded correctly in the modelViewer whilst still allowing the A-4 to appear correctly in game.

 

 

Not very elegant but it works.

 

 

If anyone knows the correct remedy for the problem though, I'd still like to know it.

 

 

Thanks.
