A complete overhaul of Zion Canyon National Park in Utah, the USA for Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) 2020 release.

Screenshot showing the scenery in use.?The scenery includes updated photorealistic textures from external sources, much improved famous landmarks in the Canyon along with lots of tweaks and bugfixes. Terrain height has also been adjusted and fixed for areas including East Temple as the default MSFS was highly inaccurate to its real-world counterpart.

The scenery is quite heavy so you may notice a slight reduction in frame rates if you have a lower-end machine. However, if you have a mid-high end machine you should have no issues with loading and running this pack.

Landmarks Covered

  • Zion Canyon Overlook
  • Observation Point
  • Angels Landing
  • Zion National Park Lodge
  • The East Temple
  • The West Temple
  • Canyon Overlook
  • The Sentinel
  • Mountain Of The Sun
  • Church Mesa
  • Hepworth Wash
  • Canyon Junction Bridge

The developer has included a POI (point of interest) marker in the simulator so you can easily find the scenery within the sim.

Updates are planned by the developer including releasing a new version to make the colors of the add-on (new terrain textures) blend nicely with the default. This is a common issue with photoreal scenery.

Installation Instructions

Copy the "Zion National Park" folder which is inside the ZIP file into your MSFS community folder.

It is as someone else said, stunning, But my god the resolution on this is HIGH, it would be nice to get something a notch lower in resolution, I have an RTX 3080 Ti and a good overclocked i9 Cpu, and this scenery slows down my performance noticeably.

This is the best thing I've seen in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Absolutely STUNNING!

I'm so glad somebody finally put some work into the red-rock country, which is hard to simulate due to sheer cliffs that can't be reproduced from images taken from the sky.

Thank You!

I don't know what to do and no instruction to do it. Help :-)

Following on from user requests, we have now added installation instructions for this package. Simply copy the "Zion National Park" folder inside the ZIP file into your MSFS community folder. A nice, easy installation. Enjoy!

Hi, did anyone figure out how to install this package? It looks great but I can't find instructions anywhere. I thought surely I must be missing it, but see that I'm not the only one.

Thanks!

Hi did you guys get sorted on how to install this? The read me is missing and it's not clear what needs to be copied where please can we get some information on this?

cloverhaySat, 14 Nov 2020 15:20:22 GMT

How do you install this add-on please?

Hi,

I am having a lot of problems getting addons to work. First, there is no readme text file in the Zion scenery as you state (view the README file contained within the download). Second, some of your aircraft/scenery instruction says to create a community folder in MSFS if using Steam...I have MSFS2020 loaded on my E drive but under AppData, in C drive there is an MSFS2020 with a community folder.....I am really confused on how to do what with your addons.

Can you help me or is there a complete tutorial for MSFS2020 Steam users?

Thanks.

Hello. I can't find full instructions for installing Zion Nat. Park add-on scenery. There doesn't seem to be a readme file and the knowledge base doesn't give instructions for this. I'm guessing I just add the extracted Zion National Park folder to my MSFS Community folder, but don't want to do anything that might cause a problem. Help appreciated, thanks, Paul.

FS 2020 is an airplane SUPER-SIMULATOR, BUT... I was very disappointed by the landscapes of mountains and cliffs that were too smooth and textures, especially too blurry.

GOLD, your reliefs are SPLENDID, and I finally find landscapes worthy of the name. And best of all, it's FREEWARE. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ... INFINITELY CONTINUE CONTINUE to us amazed ..... GOOD LUCK.
