A fix is on the way, I have to re-compile EVERYTHING under the latest SDK in order to get the water exclusions working again under WU XIII.

Thank you, I look forward to it, whenever you get the time to do this.
IMO MSFS is not just an application, it is a platform, like an operating system, because a key feature is that MSFS claims to support 3rd party enhancements. Can you imagine the uproar if, for example, Windows released an update that would require Google to recompile and distribute a Chrome update to make Chrome continue to work with Windows? It is hard for me to imagine that because Windows is so good about continued support for the Win32 API, and when they enhance the Windows API they continue to support the original API functions for decades.

Any chance you'd be able to combine these into some sort of "Bay Area water fix" pack?
over 4 years ago
For what purpose? They would all be installed into the community folder anyway.
When I start on an area, I never know how grand of a project I might embark upon. So I only do a county at a time.
I'm from SoCal, and I don't even know where the line stops from SoCal, to NorCal, to Central, to Bay Area, etc! I prefer to stick to official county lines.

Purpose would be that for me at least, I don't just fly around SMC. I fly around the Bay Area which includes San Francisco county, often times going south to Monterey, etc. It isn't the end of the world as I use Addon Linker, but I would prefer to have a higher-level "Norther CA" or "Central CA" water fix mod that combined multiple counties. Appreciate the mods, do with this feedback what you will.

Worldwide Water Fix (WIP)
This add-on is a work-in-progress project for MSFS 2024 focusing on correcting water elevation issues encountered globally. The developer addresses problems as they are discovered during flights rather than systematically reviewing every location. Users can expect ongoing updates to enhance water accuracy throughout the simulators lifespan.

Thank you for your amazing work. I had been enjoying your Oakland - Alameda, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Marin- Sonoma - Napa water fixes until SU12 broke them all and was watching the MSFS forums for news of a fix. I was disappointed that the MSFS developers have declared this issue fixed as of WU13 because all the docks and boats that were rendered beautifully above water by your mods are still underwater on my system. Here is a link to 3 screencaps just north of KOAK in windowed mode so the MSFS version shows. These caps show the water fix still not working with WU13 installed but before the Oceana was installed in Content Manager, just after Oceana was installed, and after Oceana was installed and MSFS was restarted: https://photos.app.goo.gl/w5Sf2WMWuk5nVQYC7
