Paul,
You just beat me to it...was just about to ask about the trees with the lack of
transparency!
I also resorted to a quick(ish) reinstall of FS9 to get the 54 texture files.
However I only found 5 files starting with "tree"?
I'll hold off doing any more and wait for the impending link.
Many thanks
Phil
