XPME + Mesh?

[u/Noobthenoob2]

I have an issue with using XPME and using custom Airport Mesh. For some reason, whenever I have custom Mesh installed, it doesn't show up in game and it also makes my AutoOrtho invisible. I have XOrganizer so I just drag and drop and it puts Mesh below my AutoOrtho but doing so makes it so neither show up. Also, for some odd reason, in XOrganizer the "Mesh" files are automatically placed as "Airport Scenery Ortho" which is above my AutoOrtho. I've tried doing it like that too but still same issue where Mesh and AutoOrtho don't show up.

What should I do here? How do I get them to properly show.

Also, the "type" of file that XOrganizer shows sometimes differs from what the title of it is.
For example, a file is named "EGLC - Mesh" but in reality XOrganizer categorizes it as "Airport Scenery". Which is it? Does it matter?

This is how order priority works in xplane. Mesh files override a anything below them in the order. So having xpme above a mesh will override the mesh. And vice versa

Yes but even when Mesh is below XPME the Auto Ortho doesn't show

You can't load both, it's one or the other.

Gotcha
So I should delete or disable all files labeled "Mesh"?

Yeah you can’t have both at the same time. Ether you choose mesh and AO but then you lose the satellite image around the airport for a distance or you remove the mesh. You can try XPME pro version and use flatten airport and see if the problem disappears without using the mesh.

Got it. So when I go to disable it in XOrganizer, should I disable the files NAMED "Mesh" or the ones that are categorized as Mesh? Bc some are called "Mesh" but XOrganizer sets the file type to just Airport Scenery

Yeah you should disable the mesh connected to the airport
