Real Environment Xtreme, a powerful, high-definition, photoreal texture environment has been released for Flight Simulator X.
REX is a technologically & artistically advanced, hi-definition texture utility for the simulator pilot who requires a more advanced feature set. THE BULK OF OUR CONTENT is being produced from extremely hi-resolution film photography, NOT digital, with the upmost artistic attention to detail. Source material is then laser drum-scanned and our proprietary artwork and textures are maintained in hi-definition format to allow its amazing detail and clarity to become evident within the simulation environment. Just take a look at our Gallery section to see what we mean, or navigate here and download our FREE “Preview Packs.”
Features
- User-friendly intuitive and visually pleasing interface
- Full-featured NEW built-in Weather Engine (Built on Real Life meteorological algorithms using synoptic, meso-scale, and micro environment weather formulas for Real and Custom weather)
- Flight Planner (Ability to create and file a Flight Plan using true to life flight requirements)
- Hi-definition, ultra-realistic photo-real 3D clouds (stratus, wispy, cumulus and highly realistic rendering of cirrus clouds as seen in the real world)
- Sky color environments (Includes smoothing horizon transition & visibility smoothing for dawn, day, dusk & night)
- Convincingly real water environments with tropical reef simulation (end user color controllable, including tropical with reef simulations, inland and ocean, wave turbulence/frequency, environment variants & coloring. Also new realistic type of wave and reflection included in many variations for shader 1x and shader 2x INCLUDING DX10 Compatible)
- Airport environments (photo-real asphalt & concrete runway textures, new runway and ground bump-mapping, asphalt taxiways, concrete taxiways, realistic taxiway markings, airport signage, airport parking and general photorealistic airport ground scenery)
- Multiple variations of sun, lens flare & brand NEW lightning bolt algorithms, which creates a visually stunning array of lightning situations
- Fully integrated to select Sky, Cloud, Water, Airport, and Effect Themes based upon weather situation, season, and other synoptic, meso-scale, and micro weather conditions
- Enhanced Cloud Simulation to give a more 3D volumetric feel to cloud structures and the atmosphere
- Lighting environments (runway lighting including simulated ground glow, stunningly realistic aircraft spotlights with variations for small to large aircraft, aircraft strobe lights, variations for add-on aircraft as well)
- 3d cloud & water resolution options for performance preference
- Flexibility to work in tandem with other vendor weather & texture packages
