Hi Bijan.

I bought your product, many thanks for making this possible.

Do you also work on removing photogrammetry trees in cities around Germany?
Really bad is the city of Duesseldorf with its big airport EDDL. Maybe you can fix this too? Many thanks.

Bye

Hi bijan questions for future modifications are you able to create new biodomes? Or only able to modify them?

Would be awesome if you can create new biodomes for example the caribbean islands of Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao we have cactus and kwihis and watapana trees which msfs doesnt have.

Just wondering if that could be achieve in future modifications.

Hello Bijan,

With Fs2024 the watermask is much better than with Fs2020, but there’s still room for improvement.

Do you have the knowledge to fix/improve the watermask for Fs2024?

If so, would you have the project and the time to propose a mod ?

I’ll be the first to buy your mod if that happens.

See you soon
Olivier

@Ziesel1106 Thank you. and welcome.
Yes I put that on the list.

@LAYER03 Hi, I do have few cactus plants and kowhai trees and something very similar to watapana trees.
I will look into the areas you mentioned and see what I can do.

Version 1.2 released:

  1. Added coastline tree clearance in various parts of the world. If you notice any place where trees are too close to shores, let me know.

  2. UK update. Initially I extended the fall season by 30 days. I adjusted it to 20 days now.

  3. Removed some of the evergreen trees and bushes in the UK.

  4. Removed spiky photogrammetry from mountains in Bilbao, Spain

  5. Vancouver - As part of our ongoing effort to improve scenery, I’m removing photogrammetry trees. This process also requires the removal of all houses and some smaller buildings, as they are often merged with trees. Smaller houses and buildings will be replaced with auto-generated alternatives. Many of the original houses were poorly rendered anyway, with a “melted” appearance. To preserve the visual integrity of urban areas, I’ve avoided removing trees that are merged with high-rise buildings, as this would compromise their appearance. In some areas, I’ve taken a targeted approach, only removing photogrammetry trees that were of particularly poor quality compared to other areas. Feedbacks welcome.

  6. Los Angeles - Added palm trees to beaches and few of the streets.

  7. Los Angeles -Removed photogrammetry in west of San Fernando Valley, parts of Santa Monica and Santa Monica mountains and Hollywood hills. Ongoing process. Feedbacks welcome.

  8. Carson, NV photogrammetry trees removed

  9. Removed trees from Faroe Islands

  10. Added more conifer in Minneapolis, MN

  11. Cataline island trees updated.

  12. KCRW airport - removed photogrammetry from hills nearby

  13. Increased density in forest areas in Europe

  14. Replaced trees with bushes North-western Norway.

  15. Added Kaingaroa pine forest in New Zealand

  16. Fixed wrong trees in Milford Sound airport

  17. Queenstown, New Zealand Fixed wrong trees.

  18. Removed trees from Kerman - OIKK airport.

  19. Removed trees from OICC airport.

  20. Reduced pine trees and added more bushes in the Northern part of Norway.

  21. Fixed Bamboo forest in China that wasn’t showing up in the last update.

  22. Updated Desert areas in New Zealand

  23. Removed giant trees from Tokyo and Vancouver. Although I removed the huge trees, they keep reappearing from different locations. This is a Global issue that needs to be fixed by Asobo.

  24. Reduced tree density in eastern Australian cities.

  25. Larch trees added to the Alps mountains.

I did a few watermasks back in 2021-2022. It depends on how large is the mask. Which areas are these?

2029

Bijan, is the removal of PG trees optional? If I remember right, I think you said it was

2030

Yes. If you do not wish to have that, simply remove:
vancouverPG.bgl to remove PG from Vancouver. And remove labushes.bgl to remove the one from Los Angeles.
These are in Scenery folder.

Uh, ok. As you said it was an ongoing feature, I thought it would be a switch to activate/deactivate.

Hello Bijan,

There are a few places along the French Atlantic coast :

Le Touquet
Baie de Somme
Baie du mont St Michel
Baie de Marennes d’Oléron

To choose from the list would be the Baie de Somme and Mont Saint Michel

I used this fix with FS2020, but since then I haven’t heard from the mod’s creator:

See you soon

Request:

“Pando” in central Utah, USA, is a forest of Quaking Aspen trees that is known as the world’s largest living organism. In MSFS 2024 it is simply another generic pine forest. It would be awesome to see actual aspen there.

Here are the Google Maps coordinates: 38.52664586252603, -111.75105421419295

There is no fs-base-biomes in version 1.2.
Please use the old app in version 1 to uninstall the previous one.
