Dubai City Pack

Risuali’s Dubai City Pack fills out the skyline along Sheikh Zayed Road and the coast, then extends the scenery towards the cranes and container ships of Jebel Ali. More than 250 buildings and thousands of objects give visual references for a flight across the city. The Dubai Frame and Stargate are among the included landmarks.

A route along the waterfront

Start near the coast to pick out the Burj Al Arab and the residential towers, then turn inland towards the main roads and Zabeel Park. The Dubai Frame in Zabeel Park is a useful landmark when heading inland. Skydive Dubai is also represented beside the water.

Project information

The author’s page and support discussions describe the scenery and collect user reports. The original presentation video shows the author’s release. For the simulator’s folder conventions, see Microsoft’s guide to installing MSFS 2020 add-ons.

Original MSFS 2020 Community scenery. The author page rechecked on 24 October 2026 still lists 1.0. A positive MSFS 2024 community reply does not identify its package version or simulator build; no separate MSFS 2024 release or author confirmation is established. Only MSFS 2020 is selected.

Close MSFS 2020, then install with the Hub into Community. Keep only one active copy of Riko_dubai_city_pack_v1_0_msfs2020 and check other Dubai replacements for overlap. Remove an unmanaged older installation with its original installer; the Hub must not delete another provider’s files. The six source documents remain outside Community.

Designed primarily for daylight: only selected buildings have night lighting and reflective glass. Historical user reports mention blocked loading, freezing or crashes, sometimes alongside overlapping Dubai scenery; their cause is not established. The scenery depicts the original release period, not the present-day city. Aircraft visible in the images are not included.

Original author release 1.0 retained, including the author’s Skydive Dubai elevation changes; the internal version remains 0.1.0. For this migration, the missing manifest display title is filled with Dubai City Pack. The four earlier resource-path reconstructions are retained, with every other existing file byte unchanged. The original manifest and repair audit accompany the source documents; this is not a new author release.
