This pack is an attempt to provide at least certain visual representation to Kharkiv (or Kharkov) City inside the sim.
All models are built from scratch, while texturing is built via available photographic sources of the city and Google Street View. They are far from being perfect representations but they at least provide recognizeable visual features for the city.
Included landmarks include:
- Blagoveschensky Cathedral
- Uspensky Cathedral
- Gosprom Building
- NTU KhPI U1 building (one of the most visible city landmarks)
- Yuzhny Train Station
- "Spire House"
- Kharkiv Opera House
- Liberator Soldier Monument (in 1.1)
- TV and radio broadcast tower (in 1.1)
- Metalist Stadium (in 1.1)
- Choral Synagogue (in 1.1)
- Kharkiv Airport Terminals and Control Tower (in 1.2)
- CNTEI building (in 1.3, unmarked)
- Office building near CNTEI (in 1.3.2, unmarked)
- Lover's Bridge (in 1.3)
- Levada Railvay Station entry (1.3.3, unmarked)
- Main Bus Station (1.3.3, unmarked)
- Kharkiv Aircraft Plant entry (1.3.3, unmarked)
I hope to add more objects (and probably improve the existing ones) over time, but not in the nearest future.
Installation
Just place the hsigames-khrlmu1 folder from the archive into your Community folder.
Known issues
Some objects ignore having collision meshes. I'm still investigating why.
Courageous citizens of Kharkov! I wish a speedy victory for Ukraine!

Hey there, great stuff!
Please one question cuz I've read some of the other comments... aaand... Is it really... like... the whole city of Kharkiv... You know... caput, finito, kaboom an all that stuff??? 😶

No, majority of the city is still intact. Northernmost areas are the most significantly damaged, with many firemarks and many multi-apartment buildings damaged. Several areas in the center received damage from airstrikes and missiles, but luckily those are rather localized. On the South and East damage is very selective. As I heard, airport is almost wiped, but I'm unaware what the state of terminals and general infrastructure is. What is indeed wiped are the smaller cities around Kharkov, where actual full-scale city fighting has occurred. There - it's hard to find a building that is undamaged.

Thank you so much for this Scenery! Going to stream it, as it's one of the requested city to fly in. Hope this war nightmare ends soon! We've raised quite a bit of funds for Ukraine in our streams.

Я начал работать над аэродромом Коротыч и лендмарками города. Если выживем, предлагаю скооперироваться.

Ещё раз спасибо за Вашу работу. Если есть возможность сделайте высотные ориентиры. Например трубы на ТЭЦ5, на ХТЗ, птицефабрике и т.п.

Hello. Thank you for doing work on Kharkiv Airport. I'm really pleased that you are working on this. I have Boryspil, Odesa and Lviv (payware by Pyreegue Dev Co) but nothing for Kharkiv. Thank you.
There are issues with some blurring of the building to the east of the Main Terminal. I'm going to try and insert an image here (go to the link shown):-

The Main Terminal looks very nice, particularly from Landside. I hope perhaps at some stage you will make changes to the default jetways - which seem to stick out below the building exit points:-

I hope you can acces these images. The city is beginning to look very much alive. Again, thank you for this work. I have friends in Kharkiv and I have visted Ukraine many times before the pandemic and I know Khrakiv Airport pretty well. I would have happily paid for a scenery for Kharkiv! At some point, I will review your work on my YouTube channel - virtualairlinepilot. again, thank you for taking the time to do this.

Thank you! I am definitely going to improve things visually, including airport buildings. I might need to visit the location to make photos, because normal references for third building are basically absent online XD

The airport is made very well. But in the city there are only a few POI-buildings. In order to get a better impression, there could be added much more...

There are also only a few of them left in reality

Большое спасибо за Вашу работу. Харьков совсем по другому смотрится. Для fs9 добрые люди делали Харьков и аэропорт. Может можно воспользоваться этими наработками. Там лесопосадки вокруг города были хороши. А в этом симуляторе деревья натыканы как попало.
