Brief description of the issue:

  1. Take off from BIAR in Iceland, northbound runway. To the right (starboard), where the bridge crosses the inlet, there is a large hill of water. This does not disappear with distance.

  2. There is a river running through the town of Akureyri. It sits on its own elevated hill. As you get closer it morphs in a very strange way, with parts of it suddenly correcting. Directly over it this anomaly disappears, only to re-appear as you move away.

  3. There are very clear photographs of ships in the water. This is an immersion killer (if you will excuse the pun), especially the brightly painted cruise ship.

Build Version # when you first started experiencing this issue:

The river issue has been there for months. I hoped it would be handled with WU5. It has not been. The hill of water in the inlet seems new since WU5.

Are you on the Steam or Microsoft Store version?

Steam

Did you submit this to Zendesk? If so, what is your ticket #?

I find Zendesk an absolute pain to use. If someone else can confirm these issues and is used to navigating the zendesk platform, go for it and report this please.

NOTE:- The free ORBX mesh for iceland removes the hill of water in the inlet, but does not fix the river anomaly.

This hump has been there since December last year. I see that I reported this to Zendesk in February.

(2021-06-21) Today I just updated “The Nordics” which is supposed to cover watermasks and elevation data of this area, and yes, randomly landing at Akureyki I am welcomed by this strange water bump anomaly (never been here before).

The issue is still there after SU12.
