Ortho scenery tiles 'disappear'

Featured Replies

Hi everyone

I'm really enjoying X-Plane 11 with the wonderful Ortho4XP and autogen overlay packages that are available.  After 22 years, I have finally uninstalled the MSFS/P3D sims and am now using X-Plane exclusively. 

I am having a bit of a problem with Ortho tiles at high altitudes (eg FL320 and above).  Basically, random tiles will disappear to be replaced with nothing except more sky - not even water is there.  You can see that its an entire tile missing as there is a definite rectangular shape.  If you move your viewpoint however, the shape of the missing tile changes.  Its quite difficult to describe.  During a flight this evening, pretty much all the surrounding tiles disappeared so all I could see beneath me was a black sky with stars and a moon which was on the opposite side of an earth that wasn't there anymore!

Has anyone experienced this before?  I tried an in-sim scenery reload but it just hung and after 20 minutes I had to use Task Manager to exit X-Plane.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

Please provide a screenshot (use the XP menu or the Shift+Space key combo, then retrieve it in the "X-Plane 11\Output" folder, upload it on Google Drive or Imgur or some other website, and then link it here). :-)
