Any install guides here similar to Rami's ETO and MTO for adding new scenery, mesh, etc to the PTO?

A note of caution, a lot of campaigns & missions pre-date Rhumbas new world mesh, so you can get unexpected results mixing & matching the new with the old. Might be best to have an "old" PTO install as per Dvslats guide(IIRC), unless you're OK with double coastlines, water walls & other immersion destroying eye-candy issues. All depends on what floats your boat...

Thanks Uncle Tgt
I suspected as much readng some of the scenery installs for the Pacific. Not sure at this point what I will do. I have the original install with some scenery items installed some years ago. I will take a look and decide.
This is what I needed to help.

It also doesn't include some of the newer addons of the last couple of years, such as Tinian, the Aleutians, New Ireland, New Britain, MaskRider's newest DEI set, and the Caroline Islands.

Good advice. I second this method.

The new Meridian and British Pacific Fleet missions and campaigns will be using Rhumba's newer mesh. If you follow Rami's install guide, you will have almost everything you need.
