Title: dark Swssport belt loader
Post by: Joggu on April 03, 2024, 10:16:42 pm
Hi

For some time now, the Swissport belt loader is very dark from a distance. From up close it is white again.

So far I have only noticed this with the Swissport livery. Is this problem with me or is it just me?

Thank you very much for your feedback

Greetings
Joël

I have the same problem with other liveries.

Hello - hope I can help.

I experienced this a few months back and I found the fix in the Addon Manager\texture folder in the rules_handling file. It'll show something like couatl.basecolor = white or something similar. I changed all the white options to couatl.basecolor = cool_grey and that has done the trick, although with Swissport would be suited to the Red option.

I just make a replacement rules_handling file and copy it over & amend with new handlers with each new update as I have my local airport handler edited too into the file.

Hope this works for you!

Looks like this fixed it for me. On last several flights all the belt loaders were fine. Thanks.

Well, I guess I spoke too soon. Still have the same problem at some airports.

It's impossible to say more if you don't clearly indicate which simulator you use. There are lots of differences when textures are involved between FSX, P3D1/3, P3D4 and P3D5/6

Same situation in P3D v4.5. You can take a look to this message :

It takes too long to change the background color of every operator and then with an update, it changes everything back to white and deletes my backup file. This issue really should be addressed by the developer.

Have a look at this thread, it'll give you instructions on how to create a file to make sure it doesn't update it.
