I am assuming I can add Rhumba's new mesh to these without affecting the sim.

Iuse it in all my installs and it works fine with my missions.

Unfortunately, the airfield scenery I used in the Southeast Asia missions does not quite fit the new mesh. And thatīs the only scenery available for this region.
The missions should work ok, but certain areas, like the harbor at Singapore, will look funny, with docks on the land and buildings in the water.

I guess I could just disable the DEM 7 and 8 if I am that picky for your missions!

I don't know much about mesh. The problem is, the coastlines are different, so everything around Singapore doesn't fit.
You can give it a try. Install Xavier's scenery and decide if it is ok for you.

I know very little about any of this. I am a 'User. :mixed-smiley-010:
I will tinker a bit.
Thanks for your donated work.

Rhumba's mesh from 2009 works well in the PTO. It's his watermasks from the same year which are the problem. The more accurate coastlines inundate many seaside aerodromes and towns. I don't use these files in the PTO.

Instead I use Rhumba's Pacific coastal flattens and water files dated 2002 in my PTO. They work well in general. If you have Maskrider's and UncleTgt's scenery installed, the following Rhumba 2002 coastal flattens need to be deleted:

Should I still install the LOD 5 zips as recommended in the other theater installs?

Highpockets,

Yes, install all the LOD 5, 7 & 8 files by Rhumbaflappy dated 2009.

Thanks Kdriver. I did find the answer in the forum threads from 2009 just this A. M. I am looking forward to some "eye candy" for my sims. All the wonderful work done by so many here in all areas of the sim. :applause:
