So far, I’ve only found the two faulty airports (EHAM and HECA).
Both are Asobo airports from the DELUXE upgrade.
In the following example, I uninstalled HECA, and the pink textures disappeared.

msfs-2020, ms-store, EHAM airport

Same issue with Asobo DeLuxe Update EHAM airport, v.0.1.5.5. Content manager says “up to date”

Before SU16 this airport looked quite realistic (I’m Dutch and have been there a few times), but now …

Deleted the DeLuxe Update, started MSFS2020 without it, ended it and then reinstalled DeLuxe Update, Safe Mode, Empty community folder, all no change, still pink textures.

Before SU16 these gates looked much realistic:

Intel i7-8700 CPU@3.20 GHz

16 GB RAM

Windows 11 v. 24H2 , 64 Bits

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB, driver version 577.00

Roumors about same kind of issues at HECA - Cairo internaltional airport, are confrimed:

Also a very small part (1 building) near the threshold of runway 09 L of KORD _ Chicago O’Hare international airport:

Hi, I probably managed to find a solution.
The problem is caused by a missing line in the “texture” file located in the airport folders (EHAM and HECA).

path example: LocalCache\Packages\Official\OneStore\Asobo-airport-heca-cairo\scenery\cairo

The file has only two lines, but it should have three, just like other Asobo airports.

All you need to do is add the missing line:
fallback.3=Scenery\modellib-texture\ModelLib

The whole file should look like this:
[fltsim]
fallback.1=scenery\cairo\texture
fallback.2=Asobo_Buildings\Texture
fallback.3=Scenery\modellib-texture\ModelLib

Please confirm that this resolves the issue.

I can confirm missing lines for EHAM en HECA. KORD did have the 3rd line.

Implemented the lines in EHAM en HECA and all issues were solved. Even the little building in KORD now was ok.

So, thank you very much for resolving this issue.

Great, not for Xbox users. Asobo, take note…

Nice research my friend, well done and thanks!

This shouldn´t be tagged as a solution, it´s a workaround and does NOT solve the problem for Xbox

Here’s a fix via mod for now…

Great work. Thanks for your research and good work

Weird for myself…Worked for Cairo not for Amsterdam. Any ideas???

EHAM is not the FlyTampa, but the Asobo DeLuxe Update version? If so, exit MSFS2020 and restart MSFS2020 after made the change in the texture file. Or try the mod from ImmersiveVR via flightsim.to.

Even after I had changed the texture file, I still had some missing graphics. Only after the “restart” of MSFS2020 all on EHAM was looking as it should be.

This may be because I’m using Cairo as an example in my post, not Amsterdam.

Please make sure the file “texture” you’re modifying is in that folder:

LocalCache\Packages\Official\OneStore\Asobo-airport-eham-amsterdam\scenery\amsterdam

and the final entry in the file looks like this:

[fltsim]
fallback.1=scenery\amsterdam\texture
fallback.2=Asobo_Buildings\Texture
fallback.3=Scenery\modellib-texture\ModelLib

The workaround works perfectly.
The pink textures of the HECA, EHAM, and KORD airports have disappeared.

Thanks for all your advice guys, sorted it a combination of old age and not restarting contributed to my initial issue.:grin:
