In fact, X-Plane is developed primarily on Macs. In the past, we’ve called the Mac.

What’s Covered in Version 4?

So far, then, the latest add-on to v4 of the HD mesh scenery package includes:

• New sections of Europe, moving from the Canary Islands through Iceland, up into Moscow, Russia. Eastern European sections, too, include major parts of Israel.
• New sections included across North America, covering the United States of America, Alaska, and Canada in rich detail.
• South and Central America have both been revamped, also.
• Many parts of the Oceanic regions, including Australia.
• The Pacific Islands & Japan have been altered, also.
• The Himalayas have undergone a total transformation.

At present, coverage ends at 73N; though it’s expected that coverage will expand in future editions.

Key Features and Improvements

• The latest edition of this release introduces higher mesh resolutions, offering a residual increase over what v3 provided.
• This provides clearer landclass data representations, as well as elevation data representation for a more natural looking world.
• Simplified vector data that make sure road and railroad buildings are closer to reality. This applies to all river and shoreline buildings, too.
• New high building features are improved to help ensure that large-scale buildings can stand out more. Cities now look much more modern and in scale with their real selves.
• Improved OSM data updates ensure that XP11s default mesh data is updated to 1^st October 2017.
• Landclass data has undergone another update, too, represent high-resolution landclass data better than beforehand.

Things to Consider

• Like all HD mesh updates for X-Plane 11, this is only compatible with X-Plane 11, no other edition.
• Due to the extensive size of the files, this can take some time to download; please be patient.
• If you already suffer from frame rate issues, then v4 will not improve frame rate performance due to adding, rather than subtracting, new features.
• Since v4 adds extra strain to your hardware, it's recommended you have at least 16GB of RAM and 4-6GB of VRAM for optimal performance in higher settings.

Installation

Download Torrents For Mac

• Start off by downloading Version 4 in either Torrent or Standard format. Make a choice depending on the speed of your internet connection.
• Alternatively, you can purchase the v4 disk in the short-term future when released on DVD instead if you cannot download in good time.
• Now, in your Custom Scenery folder, create a subfolder called zzz_hd_global_scenery4.
• Inside this folder, add a subfolder called “Earth nav data” (without quotes).
• Decompress each of the downloaded files and include them in the Earth nav data folder.
• If you use other scenery packages and add-ons, then you will need to re-populate your scenery_packs.ini file.
• This means either deleting the scenery package, making sure that your new installation is at the bottom layer of the .ini file.

This latest v4 scenery is a vastly improved version of the default scenery shipped with XP11. It's simple to install and use as it uses the same files (.dsf) as the default base scenery so simply drop them into the correct folders as explained in the README file within each package and the scenery will begin working. The scenery is compatible with X-Plane 11 on all platforms including Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Known Issues

At present, some known issues with the package do exist that you will need to look out for. for example, steep cuts along coasts and rivers is a common issue, as is deep-cut canyons flowing around narrow rivers. Also, cut-around airports, lack of grass and unsmoothed textures can take place.

As ever, these are being corrected as time goes on and most of the issues are relatively rare, single-issue and not simulation-breaking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I use this platform over a standard photo scenery add-on?

Rather than trying to fit in any new custom imagery, this utilizes many default X-Plane 11 landclass textures. This means that you need less storage to keep all of the textures in place, reducing the volume of HDD space needed. It also provides a more consistent quality of texture delivery across the entirety of the scenery. This avoids those deep, unpleasant contrasts in graphical quality.

Why is a particular region not yet covered?

This is an ongoing project, and as such not everything can be addressed at the same stage. Over time, this may improve and more sections could be added as time goes on. However, constraints on time and data availability mean that some sections are harder to replicate than others.

Can the mesh be modified for other projects?

It breaks down the barriers between Windows and OS X beautifully. The latest OS X El Capitan has been updated with the new System Integrity Protection (SIP) feature. This new security policy restricts any modifications to certain system files, folders, and processes. This new security measure is also protecting file and data on disk and at run-time, only allowing system binaries to be modified by the system installer and software updates. Even with the newest update of the MacOS in October 2018.The biggest problem of a new Mac user is that the inability to write into their external drive.
