Good afternoon all
I am looking for some tech advice concerning issues that have arisen since i upgraded my PC from Windows 8.1 to 10.
1) Since the upgrade i have lost the skies from any course i play. It is replaced by a generic links blank background
2) I can only play 2-3 holes before a crash, it is less for higher file size courses. I get the following error message
Error : Only power of 2 textures up yo 1024*1024 supported (8,8) ' < 359826784. TGA'
It then offers me the option to exit. If i do that and restart Links it will take me back to the point of crash and continue for a few more holes before crashing again.
Any advice gratefully received
Regards
Ian

Hi Adelade
I followed your advice and removed blocks of skies in the sky file. it would appear that Broken Skies.sky was the culprit file. I have removed it permanently and now i have my skies back. Just need to address the crashing issue now.
Many thanks for the pointer, it is appreciated

Do you still get crashes after removing that sky file? Based on that other thread, I believe the corrupt sky file probably caused both those issues, so hopefully they are both gone. If not, you may have more than one corrupt sky file.

Hi Adelade
Based on the test i completed to check the skies, i managed 9 holes uninterrupted before i had to go and do something else.
This i think suggests that you are correct. i will complete the round later to ensure all is good.
As i say many thanks for all your assistance in this
