Los Angeles water fix & California dry lakes v0.1.0
This mod fixes the unrealistic amount of water in the Los Angeles area and dry lakes that contained unrealistic amounts of water in California, Arizona and Nevada. For some reasons a lot of huge reservoirs, flood control basins, dry lakes etc. that is empty of water for most of the time was all filled to capacity in MSFS. This mod increases the realism by matching the water bodies and water levels to what is actually reflected on the underlying sattelite imagery. The mod simply contains water exclusion polygons and also some building exclusions to clean up errouneously generated autogen buildings.
This is a current list of the largest terrain features that has been corrected:
Los Angeles Area
Prado Reservoir
Santa Clara river & Castaic Creek
Los Angeles river
San Gabriel river
Santa Fe dam area
Many small flood control basins, reservoirs etc.
Dry Lakes
Willcox Playa
Lordsburg Playa
Rogers Lake
Mormon Lake
Dry lakes around Edwards AFB
Owens lake corrections
Many other small dry lakes, ponds and river beds
The mod does in no way intend to cover all possible errors with water placement. However please comment any places that needs correcting and I will try to add it to a later update.
