AS6.5 and Flight Environment for FS9

Featured Replies

I currently have Active Sky 6.5 installed for FS9. Would there be any additional benefit (or problems) if I also installed FLIGHT ENVIRONMENT for 2004?thanks, JL

Hi, there are no problems when you use both products. Flight Environment simply replaces the graphics from Active Sky. The textures from Flight Environment are more frame rate friendly than those from AS on my system. Jan-Paul

Thanks for the info! So, you are saying you think the graphics of AS6 and FE are comparable. Adding FE won't hurt the quality of the images?thanks, JL

HelloNo it won't hurt image quality. These products work together very wellActive Sky give you the weater engine (i.e how is the sky ? wind, clouds type and density...) and cloud textures with activesky graphics.FE give you also clouds textures (this is where there is an overlap) but also sky and water textures. so for clouds you have to choose whether you have will use activesky graphics or FE. It is subjective but I prefer FE clouds so I only use AS weather engine.hope it helpsbestJulien
