Since about beta 17, I've had a Hell of a time getting changes to my skins to show up in the game. The old version keeps appearing in the game, despite the fact that the old version of the skin files is dead and gone, overwritten by the new version.
I can only assume that somehow the old version is lodged in the game's mind, or my RAM, VM, or in my vidcard's RAM. But no matter how many other planes I click to load their skins, and no matter how long I fly offline, nor whether I exit AH2 completely for hours, nor whatever I do in the meantime, the old version of the skins still shows up. That is, until I reboot or shut down and restart.
I figure this is due to the changes HTC made to caching in an attempt to get around the skin-loading stutters. Anybody got a workaround for this? How do you get the old skin out of memory at will, so you can see changes to the skin you're working on? Short of a reboot, that is
