Description
Built on the banks of the Meuse, the Tihange nuclear power plant has stood out in the landscape since 1970. It employs around 1130 workers and produces closes to 3000MWe. The plant is operated by Electrabel, a subsidiary of the French group Engie. Not far from there, the Coo-Trois-Ponts power station makes it possible to adapt to the variation in electricity production from Tihange (the system is interesting, I advise you to take a look : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrale_de_Coo-Trois-Ponts). Use of the site is expected to cease by 2025.

Scenery content :
- 3D handcrafted models with photorealistic textures
All 3D models are made by myself EXCEPT THE CRANE (credits : https://grabcad.com/library/grue-a-tour).
I spent hours creating those 3D models, please DO NOT reupload them somewhere else, thank you !
Author comment :
Some buildings may not match with the real one, it's because there are not a lot of pictures of the power plant available on internet, so I had to imagine them sometimes.
If you want a lower resolution scenery of the power plant (because you have an fps drop when approaching the site for ex.) do not hesitate to dm me and I'll upload a "low res" version.
Installation :
1. Delete the old version of the plant in the "Community" folder
2. Unzip
3. Paste the content in the "Community" folder
4. Enjoy !
Thanks @Belga11 for the 4th screenshot !
If you like my work, please consider donating so that I can go from virtual to real and pass my pilot's license ;)
Version 1.1 update :
- Replaced the texture on the blur area
- Manually added some trees on it
Author comment :
The image is not the base one, so there is no buildings detection on it and no buildings in the sim, even if I tried to force the building detection. I placed trees manually to add more volume to the area.

Also for me Windows (Updated, Security updates from today) reports here an included Backdoor within the Download.
It seems that the Author should better try to fix this conflict instead of sooting pointing on own "safe" Bitdefender usage.
I stay safe for my System w/o installing this addon and wait, if a newer safe version may be generated in future..
Always Happy Landings,
Captain Warstein
I think, an Update is needed here not to cause more trouble or irritation..

Then I'll give it a 2nd try and - hopefully - then my Windows will not again report a conflict. We both may not know, why Windows defender now suddently reported a Backdoor - and not already due to the weeks before. But I'm also a Computer kid from the "first hours" (since 1980) and so I had also a big ammount of trouble within all of these years with problematic Software. So You may understand, why I want to remain on the Safe Side.
Always Happy Landings,
