If you have any ORBX FTX area sceneries (like FTX Australia or FTX Norway) – make sure that they are above FreeMeshX. Generally – FreeMeshX goes between default FSX sceneries (Edwards_AFB is the last or top one) and the AddonScenery folder. Another folder should store all patch files. Then add all folders to your Scenery Library. Installationĭownload and extract the files (you can use a freeware 7zip to extract 7z files). If you have a low-end connection – use Download Manager software or Torrent distribution. You can download FreeMeshX from it’s website I chose MediaFire downloads that is better for those who have a high bandwidth connection. How to download and install FreeMeshX Download The airport where I was unable to land was affected also in the default FSX – it was located in a hole 200 or 300ft deep. With one exception I had no problem taking off and landing on these airports. I observed this problem a few times when I flew in Andes and Himalayas. It affects only some airports – usually the ones located high in the mountains. With the FreeMeshX I had to check a few airports in high mountains to find this problem. This problem is not limited to FreeMeshX – other mesh add-ons suffer from it and there are airports in default FSX and P3D where this happens too. The airport itself is not affected – there is a flatten around it but there are visible slopes around it. In this case I am high in the South American Andes and the terrain elevation is about 20 meter higher than the airport altitude. This is how an airport looks when there is an elevation conflict between mesh and airport elevation. Possible problems – elevated / sank airports There is only slight improvement in Europe, but nevertheless – you should be able to see it on the screen below. Kilimanjaro shows the difference in Africa. The default mesh resolution is around 300 meters here giving this gentle and rounded look to the Himalayas in FSX and P3D. This is the place where the difference is most significant. Take a look at how it looks in different parts of the world:

* – Antarctica, Greenland and northern parts of Russia are covered with 76m mesh in FreeMeshX. Those who fly over United States will be happy to hear that FreeMeshX team is working on 19m and 10m mesh for U.S. Currently only USA is covered with 38m mesh in FSX and P3D.Įven the difference between 76 and 38 meters is visible and the change between 300m and 38m is huge! That means that your FSX or P3D terrain will use elevation points every 38 meters* – instead of default 76 meters (most European countries) or more (up to 300 or 600m in some parts of the world). Add-on page Why? Where’s the improvement?įreeMeshX is a 38m mesh for entire world (apart from the U.S.).
