I have utx europe installed, and most of what i have read gex and utx fit pretty seamlessly, and they go really well together

Thanks

I would go with GEX as it replaces the default textures with optimized and better performing textures. Consider it like an update to FSX.

 

Best regards,

Agreed 100%. A Wonderful Update Indeed, especially when paired with a good landclass and mesh.

Adding Mesh and GEX was the best thing I could do for FSX.

VERY happy with GEX.

FaxCap. Have you added a good landclass as well. If not, you should consider doing so, as (in my opinion) it is just as important as the mesh and ground textures.

Yes, I have Orbx Blue Pacific Northwest and the Northern Rockies.

 

Oh I agree 100% with the idea of adding landclass. I didn't mention it because I do a lot of my

FSX flying at higher altitudes.

Just to add, - if i have utx(landclass) and gex is the textures - what mesh is used?

 

Thanks again

Does it matter in what order fsgenesis, GEX and UTX are installed?
