    Dallas is a city in the U.S. state of Texas and the largest city in (and seat of) Dallas County, with portions extending into Collin, Denton, Kaufman and Rockwall counties. With an estimated 2019 population of 1,343,573, it is the ninth most-populous city in the U.S. and the third-largest in Texas after Houston and San Antonio. Located in North Texas, the city of Dallas is the main core of the largest metropolitan area in the Southern United States and the largest inland metropolitan area in the U.S. that lacks any navigable link to the sea. It is the most populous city in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the country at 7.5 million people.

    Dallas and nearby Fort Worth were initially developed due to the construction of major railroad lines through the area allowing access to cotton, cattle and later oil in North and East Texas. The construction of the Interstate Highway System reinforced Dallas's prominence as a transportation hub, with four major interstate highways converging in the city and a fifth interstate loop around it. Dallas then developed as a strong industrial and financial center and a major inland port, due to the convergence of major railroad lines, interstate highways and the construction of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, one of the largest and busiest airports in the world. In addition, Dallas has DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) with different colored train lines that transport throughout the Metroplex.

    Dominant sectors of its diverse economy include defense, financial services, information technology, telecommunications, and transportation. Dallas is home to ten Fortune 500 companies within the city limits. The Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex hosts an additional twenty-three Fortune 500 companies, including American Airlines (Fort Worth) and ExxonMobil (Irving). Over 41 colleges and universities are located within its metropolitan area, which is the most of any metropolitan area in Texas. The city has a population from a myriad of ethnic and religious backgrounds and one of the largest LGBT communities in the U.S. WalletHub named Dallas the fifth most diverse city in the U.S. in 2018.

    What is the difference with the previous version ?

    • better scenery blending with the MS/Asobo landscapes
    • more autogen trees in the scenery, by using specific and accurate height maps (with a 5m precision)
    • "laser-cut" tiles to keep only buildings and roads
    • add the Globe Life Field, next o the AT&T Stadium

    Good day,

    I tested this in 2024 (it is marked as compatible). The skyscrapers are not working, they are still showing as the stock innacurate models. I did notice that the American Airlines Center from your mod was working, but that was the only thing that stuck out on a tour around the city.

    Hello. Sorry, but there are some incompatibility issues with MSFS 2024, mostly due to the changes in the LOD management system.

    Best regards,

    Hello!

    What is the differnence to your "Dallas City" scenery https://de.flightsim.to/file/8928/dallas-city
    e.g. is this a new version that replaces your "Dallas City" scenery and I have to replace your "other" dallas-city scenery?
    Or does this scenery add additional content to the other one?

    Kind regards!

    Hello!
    Great job !
    However lately I found a terrain spike near the downtown.
    Could you have a look if you can reproduce it?
    I have no other addons installed around.
    Thanks for your great job!

    Phoenix Potentially?

    Hello. As far as i know, Phoenix is already in photogrammetry in the sim. So, i don't think it is necessary to create an addon for this specific city. For Dallas and Charlotte, it is more usefull.
