All- I had a sytem crash the other day and after many,many hours finally got things back to "normal".
Unfortunately the great water texture files I had in GW is no longer showing up. I just get monochromatic green water.
I know I d/l Bill and Lynn's terrific water files sometime back.
Does anyone have them or know the file name and where they might be d/l from?
Thanks in advance
Royce

Is only the water showing like that? if so you can run the Golden wings install exe to a dummy folder and then manually copy all water files that got corrupted.
The files are about 60 and you can find them at FSGW3\Scenery\World\Texture. They go from "001b2wa1.bmp" to "060b2wa1.bmp".
If what you are looking for is the previous water packages Mr Lyons released, you can find them a usual sites doing a quick search. If I'm not wrong, search for Water Environment and they'll show up.
If you suspect a video card driver issue...well, I can't help. But may be that's what is going on.

Windrunner- Did a search on Flightsim of all Bill's files..but I don't believe I saw it. It was a small upgrade as I recall for GW..and not part of theGW install..but I may be mistaken.
I will check the GW folder and see if those water files you note are still there.
Thanks for the reply
Regards,
Royce

Windrunner- Thanks for the help and I've d/l the files for archive.
I'm somewhat embrassed to say, that when the backup files were installed after the system failure, the settings slider for water must have reset all the way to the left at "none"! in both FSGW and FS9..haven't a clue as to why it did that. Also the MIP map setting came back at 6 or 7 instead of 4 where I previously had it set.
Anyway thanks for the help..things seem back to normal..and I've saved those water fikles just in case ;>)
Regards,
Royce
