Do you know about any Finnish content, especially scenery (ports), for the simulator? A dude under the nickname RoRo Finland produced quite nice scenery for some Finnish and Swedish ports but the stuff has not been updated for a long time. I am aware of most older content, I am wondering if there is anything new, anything "secret" only Finnish users can find? A cool, detailed Helsinki (and Tallinn) for example.
I created the passages for Turku-Mariehamn-Stockholm route two years ago (all buoys, lights etc) but now after navionics closed their open chart API, the things went difficult. I have not been doing VS stuff now lately.
The current Helsinki area scenery is bad, islands are in wrong positions and there is non-existent islands too. Sadly there is not good digital elevation models available, Dany (silja) found one promising version, but he started editing it quite heavily and then he forgot where he found the original.
