Windows tool to organize plugins, libraries and scenery for X-Plane 10.45, 10.50 and X-Plane 11. With the growing amount of plugins, libraries and scenery I thought it would be nice to have a tool to help organize all my stuff. Perhaps it helps you too
Supports scenery at other locations than the Custom Scenery folder (hardlinks/junctions and shortcuts) and also supports the Steam version of X-Plane + start of X-Plane using a BAT file or script (Powershell or other).
Functionality of this tool:
X-Plane Preferences (see advanced options):
NEW: Create different preference settings for different usage scenarios (using the preference files in X-Plane\Output\Preferences)
Swap the preferences before you start X-Plane
Plugins & scripts:
Enable and disable plugins
Enable and disable Python & FlyWithLua scripts
View FlyWithLua and Python scripts
Scenery (scenery_packs.ini):
Helps order your scenery_packs.ini (correct order from top to bottom)
Automatically ordered by country and type (as much as possible)
Enable / disable scenery: see changes in the preview of the scenery_packs.ini
Scenery_packs.ini is automatically saved (NB: can be switched OFF, but a backup is made every time the tool starts)
Scan of potential problems and conflicts available (under development)
Use sets to quickly enable/disable sceneries for different scenarios (enable under advanced options). NB: see PDF for more help!
Although the folder structure is partly fixed you can place the sceneries in any subfolder you like -> the tool just suggests locations!
When organizing your stuff you can use drag&drop but also the right mouse menu -> much easier...
NB: please look in the folder "Needs attention" -> this stuff you have to place in the correct folder yourself!
You can change the order of the subfolders by dragging, but you can also create multiple folders to create the order you like. For example for the Seasons (ground textures and objects):
Airport Data:
View details of the airports included in your scenery: you can filter and search on airport name, ICAO, scenery package etc.
View runways of a selected airport on a map
View all your airports on a map
Analyze your airports on possible scenery conflicts
Mesh Coverage:
View Regional scenery, W2XP/OSM, Overlay photoscenery, Photoscenery and Mesh on a map to see which areas are covered
Versions / Libaries:
NEW: Scan your scenery for missing libraries / objects
Show version if your scenery / library has a version.txt file
Add or change version information
The functionality with regard to versions is limited right now, but I want to start a discussion to see if it possible to create an automatic check on the versions of your libraries (and maybe other scenery as well) -> see forum...
Installation
This tool is Windows only. No installation is needed: place the folder with the tool at any location, for instance in your X-Plane folder with a shortcut on your desktop. You can start X-Plane directly from the tool.
The tool can only handle one X-Plane installation at the time -> just make a copy for each X-Plane folder if you have multiple copies.
First time the tool will ask for the location of X-Plane -> sometimes this windows positions itself behind other windows: use Alt-Tab to find it (should be fixed now)
If the tool does not run: please check if you have the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 installed + check if your virus scanner isn't interfering (don't worry it is save).
The tool searches for the country of each Scenery and puts a small file with the country name in each folder. In V0.8 a list with countries for all X-Plane airports is added. If an airport is not in the list xOrganizer will try to find the country on the internet.
Furthermore it rewrites your scenery_packs.ini file each time it is started (a backup is made!) and it adds .xorg to each plugin or script that is disabled by you (and removes this when enabled).
The tool needs an internet connection for the maps (and sometimes to search for country names of new scenery)
Removing the tool
You can delete the tool anytime: just enable all plugins before you do. If you want you can use the Reset options to reset and cleanup all traces of xOrganizer. X-Plane will rebuild your scenery_packs.ini file from scratch if you delete it. So there is nothing that can really go wrong.
