This package includes original models of bridges in Boston and the Cape Cod Canal.
It also fixes many water, vegetation, and bridge issues on the harbor, rivers and marshes around Boston. The area covered is shown in one of the photos.
When you unzip the product file “rkbridger Boston & Cape Cod Canal v2.zip” move the 2 unzipped folders to your community folder (or your mod folder).
Folder “rkbridger-bridgesandwaterfixes-bostonarea v2” includes high quality accurate models of 3 bridges in Boston Harbor adjacent to KBOS.
The Tobin Bridge
The Andrew McArdle Bridge
The Chelsea St Bridge.
It also includes water and vegetation fixes for about 6 miles around Logan. The areas included are Boston Harbor, the Charles River to the east of Logan, the Rumney Marshes to the Saugus River to the north of Logan, and south to Quincy and the Neponset River.
The free update/upgrade to v2 does the following:
Now includes water fixes for the harbor area
Adds Dock Cranes on the approach to runway 4.
Reworks a lot of the original water fixes which have degraded over time with various sim updates.
Fixes the approaches to the McArdle Bridge which were under water.
Many other water and vegetation fixes not included in the original product.
Combines the Boston area into 1 package. The Cape Cod Canal remains as a separate pack.
I believe this pack could eliminate your need for any other payware or freeware currently available for Bridges and Water fixes for the area covered which is shown at the product listing.
Folder “rkbridger-cape-cod-canal v2” includes high quality accurate models of the 3 bridges over the Cape Cod Canal and water fixes at the Canal. The bridges are:
The Sagamore Bridge
The Bourne Bridge
The Cape Cod Canal Rail Lift Bridge (completely missing from the MSFS default).
Each folder can be used independently or in combination as you desire.
This package is for personal use with a single copy of MSFS2020 and not for resale, redistributing or copying.
Requirements
MSFS2020 version 1.21.13.0
Windows 10
Hard Disk Space: 246 MB
Ability to unzip file and locate in Community Folder or your normal mod folder
I loved the author's New York City, St. Louis, Louisville, and Cincinnati bridge packs, so I automatically bought this one and now I'm sorry. I bought this to replace the ugly default Photogrammetric bridges IN BOSTON, but the majority of those bridges are NOT replaced by this package. The few that are are very nice, beautifully detailed and merged nicely with the existing scenery, but again, the majority of Boston bridges are not replaced.
The package also includes the Cape Cod Canal, why? I can get those freeware, assuming I even cared about them (and I don't). I wanted and paid to upgrade Boston, not some distant canal. I understand why a few of the bridges weren't replaced, some were low, stone, and not badly rendered, but several desperately need upgrading. To the author: Just because a bridge may not be tall, doesn't mean it shouldn't be upgraded.
While I highly recommend this author's OTHER work, don't buy this one, you'll be disappointed.
