The hi-res REX clouds look great on my system, but with anything more than sparse clouds the frame rates drop to low single digits.   I went back to REX and selected the 512x512 textures and "use DXT", after a minute of loading it said done.  But back in the sim nothing had changed.  I know it's the cloud textures since, in spot view, I can pan around til no clouds are visible and the fps returns to normal (locked at 24).

I'd try manually copying the files but not sure which ones, or to where, or if renaming is necessary.  Permissions aren't an issue since FS9 is installed on a separate partition from Vista.

if you still have your ORIGINAL install disks, "EXPLORE" disk 2 - MSGAME3.CAB - WEATHER  .  there should be a folder in there for "clouds" just copy the texture files into your ROOT FS9 / WEATHER / CLOUDS folder.

This will revert your cloud textures back to the Original - out of the box - textures.
