December 23, 200817 yr Commercial Member Review? Any good?As Tony the Tiger would say its Grrrrrrreeeaaaaat!!! :( Regards, Dave Opper HiFi Support Manager
December 23, 200817 yr How is it on framerates? I found ASX for some odd reason would drop my fps significantly on approach consistently every time, while default weather and REX wouldn't. I know others with ASX that don't see that though so I have no clue what causes it. David V
December 23, 200817 yr Commercial Member How is it on framerates? I found ASX for some odd reason would drop my fps significantly on approach consistently every time, while default weather and REX wouldn't. I know others with ASX that don't see that though so I have no clue what causes it.It's alot better. I am able to bump my traffic and graphic settings up a little more then I usually kept them at.And I run on an old box. Regards, Dave Opper HiFi Support Manager
December 23, 200817 yr After trying it out for a couple of hours now, I have to say ASA is outstanding - it adds a new level of realism to FSX. ASA delivers, get it - you won't regret it a second.
December 23, 200817 yr To be a little more detailed: I am using it with REX textures. REX weather engine was kinda letdown, especially for users with a non-english version of the OS (it didn't work at all). And they, in my opinion, completely screwed the handling of visibility. But their textures and skies are top notch. So, ASA puts their textures to good use. It's a pleasure to fly with real weather using ASA.The next plus is how ASA handles wind and turbulences. FINALLY, the issues with those sudden wind changes in FSX are solved. Entering clouds and feeling the turbulences is an experience of its own. Those things that weren't right in ASX seem to be completely fixed, the fog layer simulation is beautiful.ASA and FSPassengersX are the best xmas presents for flightsimmers :-)
December 23, 200817 yr Thanks darem! BRAVO... BRAVO!I dont comment very often about addons but dang it, you really pulled it off this time
December 23, 200817 yr Can't do anything but agree...what a week and what a Christmas holiday this will be for all us FS nerds :( After buying Flight1's Cessna Citation Mustang, ASA and FSPassengers X and on top of all that a pair of Raptor disks I guess I will have to live on bread and water the next couple of weeks but still with a big smile I'm sure :( Merry Christmas all fellow flightsimmers!

December 23, 200817 yr I never really warmed to ASX, it never seemed to work correctly for me, especially as ASv6 was so good. I put it down to FSX just not being up to it.But i have to say after having spent all day with ASA its absolutely outstanding. It gives me more confidence to make the permanent switch to FSX, especially with the Round the World Race coming up in February
