Thanks, mk83"
I am running v115, and I have not tested this with any other versions.
That is why I made the following statement in the store...
"This script is set up to work with the stock engine (v115), not a mod."
I cannot guarantee that the script will work with any other versions, but I will email Lee and ask him if he knows why it would do this.
Maybe I can tweak it to work for that or make it up to you somehow.
As far as the texture goes, it looks as if it cannot find it.
Is anyone else who has v116 having the same problem?
Edit
Try the download again in case it got corrupted. (this is my only guess because I tested with and without shaders in v115 with no white texture problem)
You could try manually assigning the texture path too.
Also, try building it and see what happens because sometimes things that don't work in a test will work in a built game.
I emailed Lee and asked for help, so hopefully we can figure this out and get it working for v116.
2nd Edit
I heard back from Lee and he figured out the problem.
v116 is doing this if the texture assignment in the FPE is left blank.
I left it blank because that forces FPSC to use the model's texturte info, which make the assignment full proof (well it did up to v116).
He said he will address the fix for this in the v117 beta, but until then you can fix it yourself for v116 by making the assignment in the FPE.
Here's how...
1) Go to
entitybank>purchased>Conjured>Vehicles and open
chopper.fpe
2) look for ...
textured =
...and change it to ...
textured = chopper_D2.dds
... That is all you have to do to get the texture working for v116.
As for the script working in v116, here is Lee's reply....
"For me there is no difference in behaviour between 115 and 116 (and the internal 117)."
So I am not sure how we can get that working on your end, unless your file got corrupted or something and a reinstall will work.
Can you open the script with a text editor or does it fail to open?
If you can open it in a text editor like Wordpad, then it should be working.

I'm not trying to be a smartalec or anything (just trying to sort this out), but you do realize that you have to walk up to the chopper to activate, right?
I only say that because your screen shot shows it being far off in the distance.
Walk up close to the side of it and you should see a HUD pop up telling you the controls and to press zero ('0').
Is it not repsonding at all or is it flaking out somehow?
Any more details you can give me or a short video would help.
The controls for the chopper are T,F,G, & H, so don't try to navigate it using W,A,S,& D, like you would for the player.
