Missing electrical generator cooling towers in Moscow

Greetings!

Note the following illustration of a Gazprom electrical generating facility in the southern part of Moscow, just off the MCAD and just east of the Varshavskya Shosse, (Warsaw Highway).

This illustration was created using X-Plane 11. (Unfortunately, I have not yet figured out how to take screen-shots in MSFS so I don’t have corresponding pictures.)

The items circled in red are cooling towers for the associated electrical generating stations next to them.

In MSFS, these are not present though there are circular impressions, pads, or whatever in the places where they should be.

What can I/we do to:

  1. Get them re-added?
  2. Fix it myself?

Thanks!

Personal Comments & Observations

This isn’t an official solution - but have you investigated the use of PuffinFlight’s We Love VFR? They have a very comprehensive collection across Europe/EMEA (Region 1). Those towers may be in there already. Or you can join their Discord and put in a request - they’re very open to user input.

Installed it in my community folder, no difference.

As far as I know, MSFS takes such data from Open Street Map, so you may go there and check if the place has correct height and designation, and also add it if needed. Than submit a ticket and wait for updated in-sim information.

For a faster solution try Landmarks of Moscow pt. 1 or 2. It’s a free mod available at flightsim.to:

Also it might be included in the payware Moscow Landmarks:

If nothing helps, either request it on flightsim.to or create it yourself using stock models.

That doesn’t exist for FX-12 yet.

I installed both and it is a vast improvement in the quality of the scenery. A lot of details, like exhaust chimneys are there. Not only are the cooling towers present - they’re even the right color with the correct markings.

Thanks for the tip!
