You are welcome, Merry Christmas to you also. You will gain a better, in some cases, mesh but you lose all the other benefits from the orthos like the writing on some buildings the actual 2D shape of the buildings.įor US low level flight I use GO2 ZL17, 18 and likely the best option until you get familiar with Ortho is to get the free Forkboy2 tiles which I found very acceptable / good. If you cover them up with a lot of trees, houses, W2XP with Maximum Objects setting you may as well just use the default scenery and just add some mesh and a lot / Maximum objects W2XP objects and they will cover everything making the Ortho photos irrelevant / useless in my opinion. Using that setup I can look down and recognize many of the buildings, areas. I only used the Ortho4XP tiles, which include the mesh / altitude information and you can extract the overlays / flat looking images of the buildings as seen from the space.īeing a RW pilot I think that the best combination is Ortho image and Objects set to Medium.

Yes, i am fairly certain that you can combine them.
