XRoad

xroads

Xroads is a library for X-Plane 11 & 12 that enhances the realism of Ortho4XP orthophotos by hiding default road polygons generated from databases like OSM – especially useful for ZL17+ orthos, allowing the actual roads from satellite imagery to show through instead. Bridges, highways, expressways, and railway tracks remain visible. Additionally, AI vehicles operate at 70% of their original speed (adjustable via "-v"), creating more realistic conditions. An automatically generated library.txt allows for precise control over transparent roads, while autogen roads continue to display in areas without ortho tiles.
