Thanks for the tip Andy. I downloaded the POSKY ERJ-145ER the other night and was getting the lagging and and grey model before the textures would load, so I coverted all the textures to DXT3 as you suggested and what a difference. I did the fuselage textures too and there doesn't seem to be any loss in appearance. I used Image Tool to make the format changes. I'm using FSX and this really helps on the frame rates also.
I am glad it helped.
By the way i never tried it in FSX which is currently in cold storage at the moment.
cheers Andy
