REX and the NGX

Featured Replies

Hey Guys, I dont waste time when flying in Australia in the sim.I fly with REX 2 and I dont open the main program, I just open the Weather Engine and press load WX and fly with what I believe to be relieastic weather. The problem is I get nice weather effects but im flying around then when everything is good we fly into a clould the plane shakes and the IAS goes from 300 to 360 instantly and the sim freez becasue the plane is overstressed.I would like to know how people like to fly with their REX and if they have these issues. AndyBTW I know this is not a PMDG issue

It's a buggy fsx code with wind shifts. You can use a registered version of fsuipc or use ase for wx with dwc. Other than that there are no other solutions.

FSUIPC is worth the money for fixing wind and temp / pressure shifts alone.

(Steve)To be honest i have REX 2 + Overdrive. I don't use the WX because it's terrible, it seems to apply to many cloud textures for a start. Try just using the textures and use FSX weather weather engine gains loads fo frames aswell

Yeah it's not going to harm anything, Another bit of advise. If you use REX WX uncheck the Visibilty in the options because this will cause major drag m8I've had many of hours tweaking REX and am pretty aware of its downfalls.

I saw the biggest hits to performance with I was using the HD 3D clouds at 4096 in REX2 while I was flying the NGX. If the FPS dropped below 10 I would get see a continually greater increase in left and right yaw in the plane. I had to look at the floor to get the FPS back above 10 to stop the yawing. I just went to using a non HD 3d cloud, but kept my HD cirrus and all was fixed.

Yeah the high res one's will certainly tax your GPU m8. use the 1024 alot better.

i uSe rex as my textures and ase as my weather themne and having no problems

Best use for REX is for textures only. Use Activesky for weather, it is the best you can Get in Weather Simulation.
