This is my THIRD addon, so please, be kind & compliant, I'm just trying to enhance the sim in my way, cheers !
Drag & drop in Community Folder & enjoy !
Hello everyone !
After almost 10hours of work, headaches & multiple coffees, I'm proud to give you in a WIP version, a watermask made to enhance your overall experience when flying both IFR/VFR around Palermo/LICJ. My goal with this addon is to provide a medium-to-high quality watermask all around Palermo, in order to make the sea enjoyable, and more true-to-life ! This is the 3rd addon I'm making for MSFS, and I already know there is some areas that have to be improved, and I will. I'm sharing this project because you can already enjoy it when you're up-there in the skies, you will only notice those smalls glitches when going up close ! So, if you have any criticizm, comments or anything to share in order to help me, do it, I'll love to improve myself :)
My other watermasks :
- https://flightsim.to/file/37691/ibiza-spain-4k-watermasks
- https://flightsim.to/file/37290/bta-corfu-watermasks-will-be-updated-enhanced
Due to the lack of documentation by Asobo, the process of making watermasks is very very very time consumming, if you want to do it well, so I apologize if updates can't be day-to-day, but I'll do my best, and may create a discord server to let y'all know what's I'm busy in !
This product will be updated as much as needed, and I'll try to support everybody having possible issues on the comment (as much as I can though !).
Need help ? : https://discord.gg/W2AwkXYEjp This mod is compatible with :
- LICJ from Asobo's WorldUpdate Italy
LICJ from JetstreamDesign will be supported later
Roadmap :
- Enhance the shape of the watermask, to make it more true-to-life
- Improve the global coverage of this watermask, to cover all approach paths (rnav, vor, ils...).
- Performances updates IF some people needs, but I don't know why itcould cause some fps issues,I didn't notice any.
Many thanks to those people, without them, It wouldn't have been possible :
- @superspud, and his lovely documentations about the SDK, Project editor, Blender...
- FredericoPonti on youtube, for his truly usefull tutorials
- OldGamesItalia on youtube, for his tutorials about basic scenery creations
By the way, If you would like some watermasks near your favorite places, do not hesitate torequest them, I'll try to have a look at them asap (only if Bing/MSFS provide great imagery).
If needed, I can help you in English//French, so... have a good day, and see you in the sky !

Hello everyone !
Quick heads-up regarding the flickering issue happening on every watermask :
I think I've finally been able to create a convincing fix for the well-known flickering issue. I'm still digging into it, and will update all my watermasks when I feel like the fix is ready.As always, thank you for your support and your feedback, it really helps me ! <3

Version History
- Ongoing fixes and changes on the terraforming side - Fixed an issue with water near the airport - Fixed some issues with the terraforming near the beach - Added a watermask near Palermo (downtown) Work-In-Progress : rebuild from scratch of the watermask close to the airport (because I'm not satisfied about how it looks!), so expect update soon :) If you want to support me, please leave a comment, share or buy me a small coffee, it would be genuinely amazing <3
