I love this mod for the obvious update to DTLA, but really want to echo what others have said about subpar perf when flying in from other places. Would be amazing to have this split into DT/Hollywood Sign/Sofi so folders could be turned off/omitted as needed.

Just needs night lights, then it'd be perfect.

A handful of downtown buildings look like they are shaded differently than the rest of downtown, specifically a portion southwest of downtown around Crypto arena. I thought there was something wrong with my scenery, but I think this is normal as you can see in the 5th image that group of buildings has a slightly bluer/cooler shade than the rest of downtown.

Hey, bit of an effort post here... I was just reading the other comments here after having some issues with the inibuilds KLAX; I think your exclusions must be working differently for you than they are for some of us. Like VFXSimmer reported, it's most noticeable for me about Sofi Stadium, here are some screenshots:

Here's a screenshot with just inibuilds present, and senecadriver-los-angeles removed:

All shots are on a 4090 with everything maxed. Notice how far that low-poly mess extends from the stadium, such that even that huge parking lot is downgraded (and the neighborhoods on the other sides of the stadium, not pictured).
Unfortunately, the issue runs deeper than some superficial visual glitches. Performance at KLAX tanks with both mods enabled, and I don't have a screenshot on hand, but at least some of the time, when I fly to LA from another city, not only will approaching LAX drop me to sub 1 fps, but I'll see clumps of disembodied flickering polygons sticking out of the ground and through the inibuilds models (inibuilds KLAX is a few meters lower than the default airport so the polys are exposed easily). This happens in at least a few areas around the airport including right in the middle of the central "traffic rotunda." If I load directly into LAX, I only see the inibuilds models, and performance is much better (but still noticeably worse than removing senecadriver-los-angeles entirely).
So all that being said, can I make a suggestion? Rather than worry about why this is happening and the work of troubleshooting, would you think about either splitting the mod in two or keeping an alternate version? Basically one that tries to be a "one-size-fits-all LA skyline mod," while the other expects the user to want to mod the rest of LA on their own instead of relying on the "General Los Angeles Area Updates" to fill out the extended skyline with major landmarks? Just something to think about as some time has passed now, it could be nice to have a version of this that easily "plugs in" with the growing ecosystem of mods for the city.

Los Angeles Cityscape? Does it still conflict with this scenery

I thought the same at first as well. But then i watched closer, read some comments and came to the conclusion: Why mix first class freeware with 3rd class payware?

Hi,
I really like your great LA Scenery, but could you maybe fix the Hollywood Sign Area in the next update?
There is a terrain and colour issue around it (ground next to the sign is floating above the hill and the terrain colour is much to bright.
And could you maybe light the sign up, as well as the antenna on the top (red lights)?
Alternatively, make the sign area detachable from the rest of your scenery?
There is a great Hollywood sign addon out there, but not compatible with yours (double Sign an antenna)
Thanks in advanced.

Not bad during daytime. only if buildings were illuminated at nighttime..... like FlyTampa's KLAS. I would literally pay, because DTLA looks like shit at night

Ive had your addon since the early days of MSFS. As a Los Angeleno - my thanks. Once little thing. I have the inibuilds LAX and that payware includes Sofi Stadium. I see both right now with your mod as well. Any chance you could have a version without Sofi?

That's odd. I use an exclusion polygon and if they use an exclusion polygon it should only show one if the scenery is layered properly. I'll take a look.

Excellent addition, thank you. brings a bit more life to the area.
Just finished a flight into the Iniscenes KLAX with the Venice beach addition and all worked fine.
For those that are having CTD's flying into Iniscenes KLAX make sure you have uninstalled Asobo's default KLAX via the content manager

How's your FPS? Unplayable if paired with Inibuild KLAX. Always a good frame drop with this mod alone too.
