Ortho4XP Tutorials Playlist: • Ortho4XP 1.30 Tutorials
Welcome to this updated, sped up and hassle free tutorial for Ortho4XP, the tool that lets you easily create photoreal scenery for X-Plane. I will explain every step that you need to know to get beautiful results as quick as possible, covering the basic setup, the settings, options for the overlays, the world map and the custom zoomlevel window. Futher I cover the very important step how to order the new Ortho4XP entries in the scenery_packs.ini file of X-Plane correctly to avoid any unwanted scenery errors. I hope this tutorial (as well as the other ones I made) will help you getting started with Ortho4XP!

I think if somebody doesn't like the clouds on the image, it's better just to go in Photoshop, select only the cloud itself and hit Fill / Content aware. It is simpler, it will be more consistent and 0% noticeable than like going after Google and risk the inconsistency. Anyway, as long as the clouds are really not covering everything, in the game they just look fine (in my opinion). Like a cloud under your flight level. It's fine. Otherwise we will spend our lives among correcting tiles instead of playing. :) I want to add, your videos are great, I have learnt a lot from you and I'm extremely grateful. :) Thank you! :)

@portlandtwowheels1872 5 лет назад

By far the absolute best tutorial on how to use this. I am not a beginner at this per se but you made it look easy. I have SFD Global also installed and found that I don't necessarily need to cover all of Europe with Ortho now. Just using it around airports for now.

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 5 лет назад

Thanks! Yes that's also what I like to do, covering some tiles around major airports and not whole countires. Even though I'm not using SFD Global (yet).

@portlandtwowheels1872 5 лет назад

@@SimulationChannelDeluxe I am not bothering with creating tiles for Europe. For that, I am using Spain UHD and Zone Photo. Zone Photo is "ok" enough for me to not worry about it. For The US I am using Forkboy and Vstates. Canada is what I am currently doing right now. My HD's are filling up fast. Haha. Bing, Arc and USA2 all have different results but the area is so heavily forested that I don't notice this issues. As for SFD Global, I am very....very impressed by it. The places where I don't have Ortho it really improves the look and autogen.

@ohyeah2389-samd 4 года назад

Right, so 3 issues: 1. Even if I input the Custom Scenery folder in the settings menu, Ortho4XP doesn't output the "zOrtho4XP" tiles to the X-Plane 11/Custom Scenery folder, I have to copy them over by hand. 2. If I follow the steps in the video, using GO2 for imagery, Ortho4XP doesn't seem to download image files. When I load them in game, it's just default textures. In addition, the "zOrtho4XP/textures" folder doesn't have any files in it. 3. If I use AlPilotX's meshes through the batch build thing, the ground elevation goes haywire, with most terrain turned into ocean with huge spikes of land coming out of it. If I use AlPilotX's meshes without Ortho4XP, they're fine. If I use Ortho alone, it's fine (except for issue 2). Combine the two and it's a nogo. Maybe I'm not putting the "zzz_hd_global" listing in the right place in the scenery config? Should I be loading it before or after the Ortho files? I didn't see it on your scenery load order video.

Question: If I download the Mesh HD v4 tiles and the Ortho4XP tiles separately and have xOrganizer decide which assets to load, do I still need to do the "Extract Overlays" step? In other words, would xOrganizer do the work of matching Mesh to Orthos and I can skip "Extract Overlays"?

You are missing the most important factor. You can turn on the program 2/3 times and build 2/3 tiles at the same time. It drastically reduces the waiting time. But do not over do it, you may get an ip ban for being a heavy user.

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 4 года назад

Thanks! Orthos are the photoreal textures only, like a wallpaper, that get placed on the Mesh, which actually defines all the terrain elevation. But the HD Mesh by alpilotX includes more than just the elevation data, so it also places accurate rivers, lakes, forests, cities etc (OSM data). Cheers

@GavinSteiner 3 года назад

Thank you for this. Question: Is the HD Mesh that we put in the Custom Scenery folder different than the Ortho4XP overlays that are created USING the HD Mesh? It's confusing.

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 3 года назад

Yes they are different. To simplify, one could say that the full HD Mesh package includes elevation data and OSM data. When you create the overlays in O4XP and set the HD Mesh as the overlay source in the settings, it then uses the OSM data from the HD Mesh for the data build. I hope it's understandable ;)

@Galiman5 5 лет назад

Excellent video to help everybody 😉👍. However two question please. Must we copy or replace every time we generate a tile, the overlay folder ? And whats happendif we already have files builted by version 1.20 ? Thank you very much.👍

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 5 лет назад

Thank you! You can still use your Ortho4XP tiles from v1.20 when you built them with X-Plane 11 overlays. v1.30 offers some improvements for the mesh and sloped runways for example, so it might be beneficial to rebuild some tiles. A new overlays folder will always be created when you build overlays in O4XP. You can decide if you leave the overlays folder in place and create a shortcut in the Custom Scenery folder of X-Plane, or you have to move the overlays folder every time and then it will "integrate" into the existing one. Hope it helps.

I am not expert of course, but mesh is the "base" in the custom scenery.ini, over mesh are orthos, and on the top are autogen, airports etc...

Hi, for a detailled tutorial on how to order the scenery_packs.ini you can check this out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sCRkkpcz_H8.html Of course you can also use simHeaven's X-EUROPE or similar addons, which will then supersede the Overlays by Ortho4XP. But I would recommend to always create the overlays, should you decide to deactivate or uninstall X-EUROPE at some point.

I generate the whole tile in the batch process now; that way it generates the overlay with the rest of the tile.

Hi 86, of course it's absolutely fine when you use your own techniques for tile creation, I'm just giving general advice here to get started (but actually it's the way I build my tiles). The only settings that I changed again after my "Best settings" video are the masks zoomlevel set to default 14 (because with ZL15 it takes really long for me per tile until the masks have been created and I'm in the process of updating all my tiles) and I'm not using O4XP's decals anymore, because I like the one by ApplyDecals a lot more :)

when i select the tile and then select extract overlays then hit batch build it says - *ERROR: file D:/XP11/HD Mesh V4\Earth nav data\+40-080\+42-074.dsf absent. Recall that the overlay source directory needs to be set in the config window first.* even though the tile is there in the hd mesh folder, can anyone help?

Thank you for the tutorial. Issue I am having though is I'm missing the *.dds files once completed. I also notice that the third progress bar on the main Ortho4XP window is gray and never completes. I tried Bing and Google and both failed to create dds files. Any ideas? Thanks!

It sounds like there is a problem with the jpeg to dds conversion tool. Maybe it's even completely missing, but for me it always worked out of the box. Also strange when there's no error message appearing.

@@SimulationChannelDeluxe Thank you for responding. I figured out the problem, in settings for skip conversation it was set to true. I changed it to false and is now working. :)

I run the program but I have a problem with the Elevation data. As you can see from the screen shot below, Min and Max altitude is at 0.0. Loading elevation data and smoothing it over airports. Downloading ..\Elevation_data\+30-110\N39W105_NED13.img from USGS. * Min altitude: 0.0 , Max altitude: 0.0 , Mean: 0.0 Causes some pretty funny images when flying. I have a scenery pack for KAPA in Denver which is at 5880'. When I take off, I fly a mile or two into the other scenery which is 5880' BELOW ME..... Or, if I take off from an airport in the scenery, then the airport pack shows like a MESA 5880' above. It's a virtical wall up to that airport. Any Help on why I'm not getting the elevations in my files?
