Hi.
Just a small question here please. I have ORBX England installed and would like to ask what Military Airbase works well with this scenery add on? I have installed ACG Duxford but is there any others out there? that don't have a mesh problem?

Ian P's WWII Fields (Link (http://www.ianpsdarkcorner.co.uk/)) are slowly but surely being made compatible with ORBX England.
Theres three that I can see right off the bat. I think he's a visitor here but I dunno the last time he's swung by.

I'm using ACG's Coningsby, Marham, Woodbridge, Bentwaters, Valley, Mona and Waddington.

For all others in England and Wales I use UK2000 vfr series, although their Xtreme version of Robin Hood Airport in Doncaster is very good which was a former RAF base.

All work well with ORBX England on my system. Hope this helps.

It may be wise to place the airbases above the ORBX scenery in your scenery library.

As mentioned by Stickshaker, make sure the non Orbx addon airports are always higher than FTX EU England in the scenery library stack. Even then, sometimes Orbx objects will appear in the addon airfield. You can easily fix that by blocking the Orbx object library for that airfield, these files are named like:

ORBX\FTX_EU\FTX_EU_ENG_05_SCENERY\FTX_ENG_XXXX_obj ects.bgl

"XXXX" is the airport ICAO code.

If I have a non Orbx airfield, I block all Orbx bgl files, e.g. for ACG RAF Coningsby (EGXC) I blocked:
ADE_FTX_ENG_EGXC.BGL
ADE_FTX_ENG_EGXC_CVX.bgl
FTX_ENG_EGXC_objects.bgl

Hi,
All sorted. Thanks hschuit regarding those files. I have now got a ORBX free base.
