- Schoenfels castle has been added (generic castle), to define VFR reporting point CARLI
2) Scenery file: Kirchberg
An additional scenery file has been added that adds some photogrammetry buildings from Luxembourg Kirchberg city quarter close to ELLX.
It includes iconic buildings like the Coque, Philharmonie, European Convention Center, the Golden twin towers of the European Court of Justice and more.
V.01 (Sep 27, 2020)
Scenery file: Lux
This small scenery file adds some simple VFR reference points around Luxembourg. Included are the radio tower of Dudelange, the 3 radio towers of Junglinster, the water tower at Frisange (VFR reporting point TANGO), the water tower above Remerschen and the church of Keispelt (VFR reporting point ALPHA).
Also, ELLX airport has been added a basic ATC tower – it is missing in the default scenery.
To install, simply copy the Lux directory as included in the zip file into your FS Community folder.
Is this scenery still relevant? No new WU/CU in the area? Compatible SU11?

First of all i would like to thank you for the amazing work you did and are doing to make Luxembourg look great in Msfs! For me the Added buildings are much grayer than the normal one from Msfs. Is there any way i can fix this issue?

Thanks, unfortunately you will not be able to fix this. The scenery mixes two different sources with very different lighting and hues. We tried to integrate those as closely as possible, but it will never match perfectly.

QUESTION : do you think it would be possible to add some lights on the radio towers in Jonglënster? now, they only have one each, at their base. But from what i recall, there should be 4 on the whole tower, plus a 5th on the very top, on each one of them...same for the radio towers at Beidweiler, btw.

Having said that at this point I prefer photogrammetry as it gives you the actual textures of the buildings. Would you be able to release an update to address that?
