    Copenhagen Improved  NEW VERSION WU-15 revised. - Image 1

    Description

    Welcome to my all new and 100% re-done Copenhagen Improved scenery enhancement for used with FlyTampa EKCH airport.  If you are a FlyTampa fan then I recommend you do not read further as a rant is imminent. Since I had to start completely over, and the work this time were more extensive, it made more sense for this cenery to be a completely new upload as all of the old work had to be scrapped. 

    This scenery ONLY WORKS WITH FLYTAMPE EKCH COPENHAGEN AIRPORT.. !!

    Since the FlyTampa EKCH is basically a very rushed through porting of their 3D assets from an older Xplane 11 scenery, it leaves a lot to be desired and on closer inspection it has some serious and honestly shocking lacking’s when considering their normal standards. I have voiced this on their forums but they don’t really care much about this scenery anymore it seems as this were 2 years ago. Therefore, I have taken it upon myself to fix their scenery for them and improve a few other lacking’s on Copenhagen and the area.

    I recommend that you also look up my Barsebäck powerplant as this landmark is visible while on approach into Copenhagen Airport.

    I have spent a lot of hours on this Improvement and hope that you will enjoy it. I have listed the most notable changes below, but with hundreds of hand placed objects and items and massive terraforming work it would be too lengthy to list it all.

    If you find any issues or have suggestions feel free to send me a PM and I will look into it. Remember this is freeware and are ongoing work.

    WORK DONE

    -        Removed MSFS Photogrammetry buildings Ferring + Scandic Hotel which are now completed. Also removed the cranes placed inside that photogrammetry. Updated with newest google photogrammetry versions of both buildings. Also fixed the leisure boat harbor which was left dry, and also retrieved photogrammetry of piers that were buried underwater.

    -           Removed the crane and placed the now completed Comfort Hotel building opposite f the terminals. Used the lasts google version. 

    -          Added some photogrammetry clutter and some lights to the McDonalds/Netto/Circle K building opposite the terminals and just by the highway exit.

    -          Added my own custom-made Photogrammetry models of both Middelgrund fortress and Flakfort fortress islands. Using aerial photos from https://skraafoto.dataforsyningen.dk/

    -          Retrieved photogrammetry version of Helgoland bath by Amager Strand.

    -          Replaced the MSFS version of Parken National arena with the lasts google version. (MSFS had its roof closed and was ugly imo).

    -          Added the photogrammetry version of the Danish Royal Yatch “Dannebrog”

    -          Removed broken photogrammetry wind turbines at Avedøre Værket powerplant and placed new ones in their stead.

    -          Have made extensive terraforming on the airport adding dirt mounts around the airport as per real life. (Yet another FlyTampa blunder)

    -          Terraformed the highway (just over 22L) going into the tunnel to make it look a little better since the original one looked like a trainwreck and quite frankly is shockingly sloppy work by 3rd party devs/MSFS.

    -          Cleaned up shockingly sloppy/bad work made by FlyTampa on the airport parking areas, added new cars correctly placed and not strewn around randomly. Also added cars to their empty parking house.

    -          Added an entire city block of photogrammetry to the west of the airport as the photogrammetry is blocked out by FlyTampa due to lazy/sloppy exclusion work on their end.

     

    -          Dug out numerous photogrammetry piers and wave breakers in and around CPH that was previously lost/hidden underwater.

    -          Put the ocean back into numerus ports and harbors in the area. (10+)

    -          Cleaned up and dug out photogrammetry of Dragør fort.

    -          Removed imagery of the Øresund Bridge displayed below the 3D one. 

    -          Added custom made buoys near the bridge as per RL. 

    -          Added highway lights to the highway on the Pepperholm island as well as the highway after the tunnel exit on the Danish side. 

    -          Removed tree’s growing inside of the turbine hall building just under RW 22L (FlyTampa didn’t feel like doing that either.)     

    -          Added some custom night lights around the city (ongoing work)    

    -          Added some 3D people to the terminals (ongoing work, at finger B so far)

    -          Brightened the lighting inside FlyTampa terminals as they are very dark (ongoing at finger A so far).

    -          Added some busses and traffic near the airport main entrance (was 100% barren and dead before.

    -           Removed artifacts floating in mind-air near the bridge. (Introduced by the latest world update.

     

    To-Do list.

    -          Fix smoke in the middle of chimneys on Avedøre Værket.

    -          Add smoke to other city chimneys.

    -          Improved city night lighting.

    -          Add more people and light to FlyTampa terminals.

    -          Better model of “Flyvergrillen”

    -          Find a way to re-introduced road traffic blocked out by FlyTampa on RW 22L.

    -          A few more distant parking areas need reworking.

    -         Figure out how to get road traffic on the bridge and peberholm island.

    -         Improve on terraforming (its really tricky to do well).

    ...would be interested to know if the package will be adapted to MSFS 2024. This package seems to be doing a lot of improvements, we never know if FlyTampa will update the airport, but I don't know how many of the underlying issues are still present after numerous WUs and SUs.

    Do you still have a possible update in mind?

    Don't know yet, time for scenery work is limited and with the upcoming MSFS 2024 and a now CPH Airport (better than flytampa) on the way, I might leave it "as it" for now so any more work won't be wasted.

    Thank you so much for this add-on!

    Looking forward to a fix for the smoke at Avendøreverket. Is this something introduced by the World Update, or does the smoke come from We Love VFR?
    Did a short evening flight from Roskilde, and noticed very intense lights from the power-plant from distance. Is this also by MSFS default?

    Lastly, would you be interested to have a look at Oslo? Seems like the Barcode and harbour area is totally messed up. Really poor photogrammetry on some of the ships, and trees growing everywhere... And similar to Copenhagen, a few distinct buildings are still under construction; like the Munch museum. I would guess a relatively small effort by someone with the right skillset would improve the area tremendously.

    Hi. Sorry for late reply, haven't been on much here lately.

    Might wait an see what MSFS2024 will bring in changes to 3rd party scenery before spending more time in making new or improving on scenery. Havn't been looking closely at Oslo, did however take the C172 between the city hall towers :) (Had to be done)

    Hi again.
    I have now exhausted my options trying to find/replicate the issues you report. Im sorry I couldn't help. :( I am working on further updates/tweaks to the scenery, so perhaps future updates might perform better for you?.

    over 2 years ago

    I also have a problem with your scenery (which I wrote to you before). Now I can't even see the "flyve grilenl" and the Øresund Bridge is the same as before, i.e. Øresund Bridge displayed below the 3D one. I have tried several reinstalls but to no avail. Is this scenario dependent on certain settings in the simulator?

    Hi.
    I dont know yet, most feedback I get is that it is working fine, but I am trying various settings to see if something changes (which it shouldn't) But I am stille trying to find the issue you reported :)

    I've tried this multiple times installing different folders and it just doesn't work for me. I do have FT CPH

    hmm.. Should be as simple as unzipping the download and placing it into your community folder.
    If you are using the Ad-on tool linker then make sure you add the mod via that.

    Just what I waited for. Looking forward to a closr look this afternoon.
