Heidelberg - German City - located on the river Neckar - in the state Baden-Wuerttemberg.
This is a photogrammetry 3D addon for MSFS2020. It includes the east city part with old town and the Heidelberg Castle and most of the west city part, using Google Maps photo 3D objects, to create this.
I had to use color correction on the base material and because the Google Maps material had different colors, i've decided to split this into two parts, each with a different color correction and trying to get them close to each other looking. And i've tried to fit it close to the MSFS2020 scenery colors.
Because parts of this city and the castle are in between hills, it was quite a challenge, to make everything kind of fitting together - many tweaks went into this version. It's way easier to make photo 3D version of cities in flat areas.
I've also placed some boats, ships on the river Neckar, and added missing lights to this photo 3D scenery.
In the zip-file "Heidelberg-West_East_Castle_gsdovah.zip" to download you will find two folders:
1. heidelberg-west-gsdovah
2. heidelberg-east-gsdovah
Just unzip those two folders into the Community folder - unzipped size together 1.85 GB - installation done.
So it doesn't make sense, to just use only one of the two scenery parts, because they were created to combine each other and they have overlapping corrections, which definitely only work, when being used together.
It should be clear, too, that all rights and credits belong to Google for their photogrammetry 3D material (as long as they allow us to use their material ;) ).
Is this mod optimized with the Google Earth Decoder Performance Optimizer? Otherwise, it would consume Ram and CPU time no matter where you are...

Maybe if you tell me what the errors are, I could help you in the future. :)

Any chance of südstadt/Rohrbach or other areas being added? Or would it tank performance too much? It's already pretty intense on performance, especially in VR!
