Kola
Development Progress
The next update for DCS: Kola Map brings a range of refinements across the northern Scandinavian region. Three new locations have been introduced: Hemavan Airport, Arvidsjaur Airport, and Boden Heliport. These new airfields expand operational opportunities across Sweden and Norway. The surrounding areas of Hemavan and Arvidsjaur have been newly populated, adding life and visual depth to these northern settlements.
Orbx has also implemented updates to airfield ground textures and introduced improved summer textures throughout the mountain regions. This has resulted in more natural and visually consistent terrain transitions.
Several fixes were made to address community-reported issues such as updated runway markings at Poduzhemye, Kalevala, and Koshka Yavr, along with multiple vegetation and taxiway corrections. Trees obstructing taxi routes and runway approaches have been cleared, parking slot dimensions at Monchegorsk have been optimised and texture issues such as missing bridge materials have been resolved. Vector data across the eastern Russian side of the map has also been refined to improve geographical accuracy.
These changes mark another step toward refining the authenticity, functionality, and visual fidelity of the Kola experience.
DCS Modding Hub
Community Spotlight
Have you ever created a new livery, dabbled with sound packs, or wondered how users create their own aircraft? Then look no further than the DCS Modding Hub Discord. Born in 2017 to gather everything “mod-side” under one roof, the server has grown into the largest public workshop with dedicated channels for 3D modelling, texturing, scripting, FM tuning and mission assets.
Beginners can follow pinned step-by-step guides, while veterans trade Blender shortcuts and Lua snippets. Show-and-Tell threads feature WIP cockpits and ground units long before they appear in the User Files section. They also have a roster of volunteer testers who help creators squash bugs. Join up and start creating on the DCS Modding Hub Discord!
Thank you again for your passion and support,
Yours sincerely,
