FSX Scenery--Istanbul Turkey

Istanbul, Turkey scenery for FSX realigns coastal shorelines to match the underlying mesh, improving how the Marmara Sea, the Bosphorus, and the nearby Black Sea render around the city. It continues the Greek Coastlines series and requires GRCOASTL.ZIP for seamless regional coastline coverage and cleaner waterfront geography.

A coastal city with industrial buildings, red-roofed structures, and multiple waterways is shown under a partly cloudy sky.

A wide river flows beneath a suspension bridge, with a cityscape of tall buildings and scattered houses visible on the left.

A coastal cityscape with scattered buildings and a small peninsula extends along calm blue water under a sky with scattered clouds.

Scenery--Istanbul Turkey

1/5 • 3.6K downloads • 375.45 KB • Clean (27d)

FSX Istanbul, Turkey. In the default scenery there is a discrepancy between the mesh terrain and the shorelines of the Marmara sea and the Bosphorus. As a consequence, the representation of the city of Istanbul is rather ugly. This scenery corrects the coastlines of the eastern part of the Marmara sea, of the Bosphorus and of the part of the Black sea immediately north of the Bosphorus. It continues the scenery "Greek Coastlines" by Yiannis Dermitzakis (GRCOASTL.ZIP). By Winfried Orthmann.
