REX Overdrive Question

Featured Replies

As some of you may know, I've switched to REX (FS9) and absolutely think it's one of the best add-ons for FS2004. I'm very happy with what I have and wonder if I should "leave well enough alone", or tackle the installation of Overdrive. Is there really that much difference between what REX has as native versus the Overdrive addition? Thank you.

I was thinking the exact same thing. It almost seems like a perfect product the way it sits, is there actually a need for the overdrive pack??

The installation will not spoil anything in your default REX install, so there is nothing to lose.On the other hand you will get many many more cloud, sky, water, environ and airport textures to choose from.I think having a bigger choice is always great (well, almost always)! thumbsup2.gifrexchoice.jpg

I just installed Overdrive and flew a test flight. REX continues to impress. You can see by my specs that I'm fully FSX capable. :( But with REX and similar add-ons I see absolutely no reason to leave FS9. I'm very happy! And, if you don't have REX or haven't installed Overdrive, I highly recommend them.Merry Christmas.
