Darren Howie Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Great work on the Chicago scenery its fantastic. Only issue is both the payware Chicago airports Ohare and Midway are being flattened to just runways after the install of Meigs on my setup. If i move them above the Orbx folders then Meigs itself disappears but Chicago buildings remain but both Midway and ORD return. There is nothing in the install guide on scenery priority order to assist. Any ideas? Thanks Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Howie Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 Found a solution using this scenery order if it helps anyone else.

Fizzelle Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Yes Darren that's what I did too. I have to admit, I hate the FTX Central for X-Plane. With so many of us making OrthoTiles, and tweaking our scenery_packs.ini file, it's annoying to have the ORBX installer change things around. They offered ZIP files for Linux etc so I ask, why not that option for Windows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim737murphy Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 My default KORD and KMDW were both flattened also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffewo Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Same problem here. No buildings on default KORD. Hopefully ORBX can issue an official fix. Curious why this did not show up in testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffewo Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Finally sorted it out. Make sure the 2 Meigs mesh files are below the global airport pack in the .ini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be more precise (to avoid confusion): There is only ONE mesh file (ZZZ_Orbx_KCGX_Merrill_C_Meigs_Field). The other is an overlay file (Orbx_KCGX_C_Overlay). Overlays are above meshes, airports are above overlays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
