April 7, 20188 yr I am using P3D v4.1 and X-Plane 11. I prefer P3D for all the add on's and aircraft that are available. Plus the atc in X Plane is useless, but the scenery in P3D is starting to get a bit repetitious. However, I have been making my own scenery in X-Plane using Ortho4XP. It is totally mind blowing. It's nearly like the real thing. Now, if only there was a converter to convert Ortho4XP tiles to a FSX or P3D format. The perfect flight simulator............. I have played with FS Earth Tiles but wasn't pleased with the result. I believe TileProxy has trouble with autogen. Here's wishing that down the track........ John
April 7, 20188 yr Hi John, You could add custom AG to the FST scenery by adding a texture folder . At Simmarket there are several AG country packages for sale. The same for OpenVFR. Or for free : http://italyphotoreal.weebly.com/download.html ( has good and not so good AG coverage ) 5950x3d 5.4-5.7 GHz - Asus ROG 870 Crosshair Apex - GSkill Neo 2x 24 Gb 6000 mhz / cas 26 - MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC - 1x SSD M2 6000 2TB - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 1Tb - Corsair 5400 case - Corsair 360 liquid cooling set - 3x 75’ TCL tv. 13600 6 cores @ 5.1 GHz / 8 cores @ 4.0 GHz (hypterthreading on) - Asus ROG Strix Gaming D - GSkill Trident 4x Gb 3200 MHz cas 15 - Asus TUF RTX 4080 16 Gb - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 2TB - 2x Sata 600 SSD 500 Mb - Corsair D4000 Airflow case - NXT Krajen Z63 AIO liquide cooling - FOV : 200 degrees My flightsim vids : https://www.youtube.com/user/fswidesim/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0

April 11, 20188 yr Isn't this what Orbx TrueEarth will accomplish for P3D or am i a bit off? Jason Weaver - WestWind Airlines; FlyUK Airlines; VirtualUnited.org

April 12, 20188 yr Even if it worked in P3D, the engine just doesn't do ortho scenery well IMO. At least not without a developer spending resources to color correct it and annotate it properly. And the way P3D does autogen isn't really compatible with how XP11 can do overlays on orthos. Not as freeware at least. Orbx obviously has it figured out for their coming payware but it's not being done by a simple tool like Ortho4XP. Edited April 12, 20188 yr by bonchie

There is no way you will ever accomplish with Ortho4XP (or something similar) what Orbx has accomplished with TrueEarth.
