FSX River Angara Scenery

River Angara scenery restores a 380-mile stretch of Siberia’s landmark waterway, drawing a seamless, correctly shaped riverbed from Lake Baikal northward where the default landscape shows only coastlines. Built for FSX, it also adds autogen polygons for larger settlements between Kezhma and Strelka to enrich low-level VFR flights.

River Angara, Siberia, Russia. Replaces a 380 miles section of this major river that drains from Lake Baikal in Siberia to the north. In the default scenery the coastlines are shown, but the river itself is empty. By Mike D. Dalgleish.

River Angara Scenery.

Scenery for FSX: to replace a 380 miles section of this major river that drains from Lake Baikal in Siberia to the North.

From N58° 57.191' / E101° 14.592' to N58° 6.028' / E92° 59.629'

The default section of the river are left untouched.

The default scenery shows this river empty, except for coastlines. For a waterway that is up to 3 miles wide, and a source of hydro-electric power, this is some omission. This scenery fills the gap. I have tried to set the river's shape to fit seamlessly with the default water shapes, this includes using a similar number of corner points.
As a bonus, I have placed autogen polygons to represent the some of the bigger villages/towns from Kezhma to Strelka.

To install, simply drop these files into your addon scenery folder and run FSX. Make sure, of course, that Addon scenery is listed in the Scenery manager.

The optional file VFR Bratsk R_Angara can be placed in:
My Documents>Flight Simulator X Files.
It is a flight plan you can use to make finding the river easier if you are unfamiliar with Siberia.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D scenery
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Place scenery in Addon Scenery

    Create a folder under FSX\Addon Scenery\ containing scenery and texture sub-folders.
  3. Activate in Scenery Library

    In FSX, go to Settings → Scenery Library → Add Area. Higher priority means it overrides lower entries for the same location.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
