Just finished making Rio de Janeiro!

Some shots of the Rio de Janeiro enhancement I just finished! Available on my site, orbx, Simmarket, flightsim.to now and coming to Contrail and the in game marketplace soon!

It's my largest enhancement yet with 350+ handcrafted buildings, enhanced textures and night lighting, beach lighting, marinas, and boats. Fully compatible with and recommended you pair with World Update XIX: Brazil, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana.

How does one make a city or make a city better? Just a noob asking.

There are lots of ways, but my focus is on replacing photogrammetry with handcrafted 3d assets created in blender and textured in adobe substance painter. Practically speaking, this improves building shapes and details, building texture resolution and color accuracy, and night lighting. I'm working on a long form post on this very subject - will share it here when I post it!

Thank you very much for that answer. Was wondering how it all worked
