Taiwan is a mountainous country locates at Southeast Asia. The major island covers around 36000 square km area. The highest mountain is Yu Shan aka Mount Jade with 3952m elevation. There are 100+ peaks higher than 3000m in Taiwan. This project provides 20m DEM source for whole Taiwan Island, including remote islands like Guishan Island, Green Island, Lanyu Island, and Liuqiu Island. If you like mountainous terrain and natural environment, this is a great place to visit.
Other islands DEM belongs to Taiwan's territory like Kinmen or PengHu will be provided from separated packages.
Note, some airport's terrain may be distorted due to nature of the data source. Main hubs like RCTP, RCSS, RCKH, or RCFN have been evaluated without any significant spikes. Future updates are planned to terraform other airports in Taiwan. Please also be aware that your hardware performance maybe impacted due to increased terrain detail.
Installation: drag and drop the 'fsformosa-Taiwan-DEM' in your Community folder. Remove 'kcai-Taiwan-DEM' and "kcai-taiwan-dem-apfix" folder in your Community folder if you have previous version installed.
Credits: Thanks for Morko's great DEM tools for one more step ahead.

Looks beautiful but my FPS went down severely once I began flying over the island. I hope to see an update one day.
EDIT - I'm not too sure if it is giving bad performance now. I reload the sim at RCKH and now it works fine. changed from 3 to 4 stars.

as some people before me wrote, after world update 9, the DEMs stopped working fine, same with formosa DEM, Mikea.at DEM or Troglodytus DEM... only the CGL meshs by Orbx work fine

Nice work. However, I found that this mod causes performance drop and frame stuttering when flying above 15000 feet. My config:

Got same problem here, so far no good solution for this, an MSFS internal issue.

您好,安裝此地形檔之後,會造成ACO Design Studio的台北場景的捷運淡水線浮空,是否可修正呢,兩個都是台灣必裝的場景,希望可以完美整合

不好意思,他們松山的製作方式比較特殊,都是一大坨建物蓋在同一個平面上,基準點也不知道在哪裡,量體又很大,我無法隨便就搞定,可能要麻煩你們有購買的尋求它們協助,或請他們跟我們聯絡,否則實在很難提供支援。感謝您的支持!
