I am pleased to present you my latest creation, Vancouver.
I have recreated this scenery in multiple LODs. 17-19 has been used for the base scenery that gives great visuals and performance. 17-20 has been used for Downtown Vancouver for higher detail for the buildings.
I have optimized this scenery for great performance, though for lower end PCs may struggle. If this is the case, I do have a ligher version that should perform well on lower end PCs.Please contact me if you would like the lighter version
Love this however will you be updating it to SU9? I'm getting a lot of weird glitches now. Can you please Improve South Van (Marpole, Kerrrisdale, etc) and North Richmond. It's weird flying into YVR with none of the high buildings around.

does this work or does it needs to be updated?

Is it possible to create south Vancouver and Richmond area.

There are some performance issues with each of these meshes and SU7. They work, and I haven't CTD'd, but since installing whenever I am flying over the region I get regular chop and audio cuts. It stops after removing the mesh which I've done as I fly a lot in the area and I was getting a little bit frustrating. Note - this isn't a bash on this product, it's a job very well done. It just has some issues with SU7. Still much respect for the work though. Cheers

Stanley Park looks like a bald mountain. No BC Place or any versions of famous Vancouver landmarks. No shipping port. No bridges connect. Not sure what this is for?

Switch on photogrammetry. If you have this switched off, it effects the mesh elevation and terraforming. This is why Stanley Park looks like a bald mountain.
For the landmarks you say are missing:
Your installation must have gone wrong as clearly in the pictures are those areas present what you reported missing.
Sounds like you're missing a folder. One of the folders have some tiles deleted to make way for the HD content so this is likely why you dont see any landmarks. Install the HD folder and you will see them
Here's a video of someone using this mod

I can confirm that it works fine for me with SU5. That is a great scenery! Thank so much for the time to make it. Now, more specifically for the bridges compatibility with the other mod, you can edit the source and "ungroup" the tile in blender, if it is what you using. That way you can only remove what's needed... But it's more work for sure. It will blend the mods more accurately and nicely tho.

Just adding to the "bridges" comment... Since Lions Gate bridge is incomplete, I have added the earlier "Vancouver Bridges" package back.. this works, kind of...
Now there are some duplicate bridge towers which is visible when you get close.
Could the bridges simply be removed from this package? That way, we get the best of both..

I can make a patch no problem. Might lose some photogrammetry around the bridges as I have to delete a whole tile or two, to accommodate...I will make it as an option non the less as I think it would look amazing with your bridges.
I will credit you/link once done, if you could do the same?
Hopefully will get something tomorrow ready

Amazing!
Just two things:
This is true both with the HD and the lowrez versions..

Really nice! Works great with FSDT CYVR! You could do this with the whole of Florida Keys and even Seattle 😉 including areas around the airports and it would boost performance for many people as well over all visual quality. Perhaps any airport that sits in areas where a lot of photogrammetry is present would benefit! Now to delete the block trees that come with photogrammetry to allow MSFS generated trees to show, they mostly are there poking through most of the time. Nice work!

Thank you so much..that would be the ultimate plan to develop an entire coastline.... at the moment, with these imports, they are very RAM intensive. There becomes a cut off of how much scenery you can have until performance tanks.... but with the new performance update incoming, this may change that.. we will see. :)

With the Vancouver Harbour Flight Centre it seems to have a bunch of CTD's, I'll see if I can work something out. In the pictures, it looks pretty good though!

I will investigate what could be causing this.. I know in this area, there was a really stubborn bit of terraforming issue... Also, I have a lighter version that has downtown in a lower LOD... Buildings still look great if you would like this version

Hi Does it work with FSimStudios Vancouver?

It doesn't seem to on my PC there is a clash and a mix of scenery around the float plane bases.
