This add-on replaces the default ground textures on La Palma with custom high-resolution color-corrected aerial imagery. It also improves the landscape in many ways.

1 Custom Ground Textures

• realistic manual color correction that brings La Palma to life
• sharper image with more visible details (e.g. rock structure)
• no green tint, especially no green roads and no green sand
• no clouds visible on the ground

2 Upgraded Ports

• added docks and hundreds of hand-placed motorboats, sailboats, yachts, catamarans and ships to all ports on La Palma
• placed one container ship and a crane in the cargo area of Puerto de Santa Cruz
• placed one cruise ship with night lighting and a helipad that you can land on in Puerto de Santa Cruz
• added a Fred Olsen Express ferry with night lighting to Puerto de Santa Cruz

3 Enhanced Night Lighting

• added night lighting to all ports and piers
• hotel areas, pools and sports facilities are now illuminated at night

4 Appropriate Vegetation

• added palm trees and other typical vegetation to the cities
• improved vegetation to match with the aerial imagery (e.g. bushes instead of trees in rocky areas)
• removed incorrectly placed trees along the coast

5 Accurate Coastline

• applied a custom water mask to match the course of the simulator's ocean water with the coastline on the aerial imagery
• beaches and other parts of the coast that were partly underwater are now completely visible giving the coastline a more defined look

6 Other Improvements

• added exact models of all lighthouses with animations
• added the Castillo de Santa Catalina and the Museo Naval in Santa Cruz
• removed incorrectly placed buildings on top of fields, pools, sports facilities, etc.
• removed incorrect rivers

This add-on is compatible with the airport by Sim-Wings, but you need to disable the aerial images included in the airport add-on in order for our textures to show up. How to do this is described on our website here: islandcreationsaddons.com/compatibility
