REX...well worth it.

For several years,I have been putting off adding REX to my FS9 . Was kinda worried that it would beat up my frame rates since my PC isnt exactly a speedster. Then,after being so bored I couldnt see straight,I decided to get REX and give it a risk.
I am COMPLETELY impressed with it. Great scenery and clouds can be had with that program,and if anything,my frame rates seem to be a little better than usual.
You are given the option of using 1200x1200 pix bmps or 520x520 bmps ( now I most likely have those numbers wrong,but not by much). I chose the smaller,and applied them. Really impressed. Thrilled. And satisfied completely !
Well worth the cash.

Welcome to the world of clouds! :clap: :clap: :clap:


About the only time that I don't use clouds is the first time that I try new scenery.

Other than that I love lots of clouds. It make the sim seem much more realistic.


As to your sim being faster, it probably is. Probably all of the clouds designed nowadays are better designed than the old ones.

Same here...I too am a fan of plenty of clouds. A couple years ago in the forum,I spoke to Paul and a couple others about how to get the best clouds with the settings in FS9. But,without good BMPs,that was almost a waste of time hoping. But with REX,...oh yeah. And what else makes it look so good is they give you options for the background of the cloudy sky,and the realism that adds to the clouds is noteworthy as well. Yep...wish I would have given REX a chance many moons ago. Great program !!
