Hi,
Had FSDOE since it was first released, but dont get online much , although i have got pretty much all the add-ons.
First problem ive had is that trees have turned into giant white 'cross-hair' targets.
Anyone know if i can fix or have a file to paste in without a full reinstall?

Sounds like a video problem to me. Try turning down your settings. Like resolution, etc.

Do you have any addons installed. Sometimes you get white transarency planes on objects instaed of the right texture if the texturefile is corrupt or not correctly installed (wrong folder).

Ive nnever had much problem with installing and running any of it.

Happened this at all Terrains or only at the basic ones (Dover,Rhineland,Africa) or do you have problems with a special terrain or modification like the africa Mod.
And do you have Nat Trees installed?

Seems to be confined to towns and airfields in just dover and rhineland.
Afrika has a town and airfield modification.

Oh.....also.
The other problem i nearly forgot.
I cant choose to be a japanese, french, russian or australian pilot, although i can fly say french/russian/japanese planes in training or missions.
When i do goto pilot and choose one of the above nationalitys the game just quits back to windows

The original Tree is in date2.par file and it is placed in the Fighter Squadron directory at: Media\terrain\rhineland\tree1.sm
The texture file is at:
Media/terrain/vegitation/textures/tree1.tif

So please look if you have such files in your media folder.If yes,than move them out (maybe to desktop) and start SDOE,because the game will now use the original tree at data2.par instead of a modification one.

If you have not a mod tree installed then delete the texture cache files and dirs :cache.dir and cache.tex or/and SDOEcache.dir and SDOEcache.tex you find in your Media folder and start SDOE.The game will rebuild them.This helpes sometimes if you got texture problems.
