October 5, 201114 yr I always subscribe to notifications about updates (FSS) but I never get any.. did you guys got notifications about Shade updates? If you have a lot of addons it's hard to monitor all those forums and websites but I rarely get any notifications from any flightsim webstore even though I always subscribe.Another reason why we have AVSIM.... Best regards,JimYes, it shows only as "ShadeWrapper.exe." It is v1.02 so you will have to uninstall the previous version.You do not have to uninstall the previous version. Best regards,Jim

Yes I subscribe to them aswell and never get any, maby for a future update the developers could add a check for updates feature to the gui, not a big deal though.
October 5, 201114 yr sux, it sounds same as sucks! The reason is that it darkens the terrain and virtual cockpit very much. In night, you can barely see anything. I have tried changing a lot of settings, but nothing worked. And if Mogwaisoft wanted to make this addon to really caste a shade on FSX then why they made menu too complicated. I know it is loaded with bunch of themes or colors or whatever but tell me, have you got enough time to select the one in million as per your likings. I prefer ENB series because in night you can turn it off so that you can see everything and in day time it castes and an amazing effect in skies. Moreover ENB series is freeware------------ +1. I just want to tell you an experience of mine:It was a beautiful morning, in the spring weather. I set the weather theme to ORBX 6. Took the PMDG 737 900 NGX W/L and planned a flight from KMCO to KJFK. At the airport I struggled to see the buttons on the panel. After the takeoff, autopilot button was barely visible, the overhead panel was just like a dark pit and the jump seat view of cockpit was totally black. I instantly guessed that Shade addon has messed up. And from that day, I stopped using it.That's my review, choices differ from person to person. For most of you it may be nice to have such effects, but for me----------yuk!
October 5, 201114 yr Turn off enb when using shade and things are gonna be ok!Still doesn't mean you can say it sucks. Understand the difference.
October 5, 201114 yr does shade for fsx work in dx 10 mod? I think not. I think this has been mentioned several times...
October 6, 201114 yr I think not. I think this has been mentioned several times... I think not. I think this has been mentioned several times...OK
October 7, 201114 yr Another satisified customer here. My experiences: With the GA flights in which I exclusively spend my FSX time, the depth of field it adds really makes the experience more immersive. I'm only upset by all the hours 'wasted' not flying with this addon , and I've yet the scratch the surface of its capabilities. It's not perfect but I gladly accept its limitations for the eyecandy it adds, especially at its modest price. BTW, I find the ENB mod enhances its effect rather than detracts.

October 7, 201114 yr Author I am very happy with the visuals and can now get rid of ENB as it has caused considerable stability issues. Shade cannot completely provide what I was used to with ENB, but compromise will always be a key factor with FSX. Bob Officially retired
October 8, 201114 yr does shade for fsx work in dx 10 mod? I think not. I think this has been mentioned several times... Shade works fine in DX10 mode, it's ENB that doesn't.
October 15, 201114 yr OK I just bought Shade I set up a flight to fly down the valley towards LOWI ('Approaching Innsbruck') about an hour before dusk (ASE vis was 10+ SM) and took a video with FRAPS. Then I fired up FSX with Shade (no ENB) and flew the same flight whilst watching the video on my other monitor and comparing the two. Well the difference is simply amazing, the lighting is so much more realistic and FSX just looks drab and washed out in comparison. Best £7 I've spent in a while.
