reported Moving map shows water where there is none

[lmp]

In at least some regions of the map - yesterday I experienced it when flying from Java to Tskhinvali - if you zoom in close, the display will show you're over water.

Can you please take a screenshot if you can reproduce it?

[lmp]

Sure.

 

I created a FARP on the hill above Java, where the default Mi-8 campaign starts. Here's the default map view:

I zoomed out to show that sea/land is displayed correctly when the map scale is small:

I zoomed in and up to this point it looks good:

Then I zoom in once more and get this:

Did it help to recreate the problem? Let me know if you need anything more.

Sorry, haven't tried yet. Will try to reproduce tonight after work.

+1 to this. It also happens when taking off from Shpora in 'spring tension', when you spawn at shopora and power on the NS430 it appears that you are on water with the water having a straight up and down edge.

Sorry about that, I apparently got distracted for 3 months. It's now reported.

 

thanks for the reminder!

Sorry to revive this, but it seems that the issue is still present. I think the problem is that hires terrain data is missing in a large section of the Caucasus map. To be precise, from 43°00'00"N 43°00'00"E to 41°00'00"N 44°00'00"E.

 

I have uploaded two screenshots here:

Here you can see the corner of the zone where the terrain data starts to go missing. When zoomed out, the lowres terrain data is there, but when zoomed in, the area turns blue.
