Also, for some reason I'm going to see if I can get the Orange Astro thing to work with my scenarios, but I need a link or some way to get the zip file.

Randomly found this thing where when I look down a bit, the texture just changed. Here's some photos, see below.

Can somebody give me the zip file for the black tiles, I'ma make sure I have the right thing?
The black texture can be found on Post #34, where we initially thought the black Orion CM would only be applied to EFT-1, but turns out also be the default color to all Artemis flights as well
Did you download the file from #34 and install in the default textures folder? It will override the white Orion tiles. I have it attached here also. If you want the white back it up.
I get this for Orion at ISS

Looking at "Screenshot(60)" here, it looks like the Textures are in "Scenarios\Orion-MPCV-15\Textures" which is definitely wrong.
The Zip might not have been "packaged well" (no "main folder" in ZIP, just Textures, Scenarios, Meshes, etc...)

Yes. It looks like it is wrong. That would explain several things

I think I didn't install in the default textures folder, but I'm going to see if I can get the tiles. By using everybody's suggestions so far.

For some reason the texture still doesn't load after putting it in the default textures folder for Orbiter.

I'm still getting the same "glitch" thing I have, I said something about this on post #383 and the black textures aren't loading still.

Ok. Post an screen shot of your textures. It should be in Orbiter2016/textures

Looks good. So when you run the Orion at ISS what do you see?

Actually, for most of the flight, Orion will sport reflective mylar foil blankets, similar to the lunar Apollo CMs. The back tiles will only be visible as the mylar foil burns away during entry.
Here's a photo Orion before it moved to the Multi-Payload Processing Facility (MPPF) to be loaded with the hypergolic propellants it will use during the mission: https://flic.kr/p/2ks9rFu Note the mylar foil on the tiles. The few tiles that lack the mylar foil will have it applied once the propellant loading has finished.
