August 26, 200520 yr Commercial Member Wow. Finally found the file. Just typed it in google and brought me to the correct page on the site, and bam! Got 'em. Very amazing textures. The best yet in a sim. Thanks so muchRegardsTim Tim FuchsManaging PartnerREX SIMULATIONS website: www.rexsimulations.comsupport: www.rexaxis.com
August 26, 200520 yr The textures look great. I just can't believe that they won't have an impact on performance when the file sizes are ten times the original.Gonna give them a try though for sure.Adam
August 26, 200520 yr These textures are about half the file size of those in Airport Environment Update (AEU 7), which are of the same resolution BTW. But going by screenshots alone, I'd say these look waaay better. Anyway, I find it hard to believe that they do not impact performance. Replacing 811Kb of default textures with 10Mb of modded ones should have some hit on performance. Anyway, I'll try them and see. Even if they do impact performance, textures can be reduced in size with sharpness filters and make them look as good as full size but at lower file sizes. There's a detailed post on how to achieve this somewhere on these forums w.r.t. Chris Arrington's AEU7.Keith
August 27, 200520 yr Anyone use these at a payware airport like Simflyers and the PMDG744 yet at the same time? Eric
August 30, 200520 yr Hi,I just tried them out and went from 14 to 17 fps sitting in the same spot. Have heard there's a problem at night, but haven't checked that yet.Take care,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___ Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page
August 30, 200520 yr FS Freeware rocks http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/otn/wink/thumb.gifI have found a ton of stuff on there and use it regularly all the time. I am very grateful to the people who run it....or any massive freeware file database for that matter.Thanks to the original poster for pointing us to this nice texture set!

August 30, 200520 yr Tried them out...not bad!Bill Asus Tuf Gaming Plus B550 - Ryzen 7 5800X3D - Asus GeForce 4080 RTX OC Edition - 64GB DDR4 (3600Mhz) - EVGA 850W Power Supply - 2X 1 TB NVME PCIE gen 4 - Windows 11 (25H2)
August 31, 200520 yr I already downsized them to 64x64 (32Kb image) which is the default FS9 and they look really good. The funny part is that when I zip the folder with the resized textures it is only 540Mb.If you want to see a couple of pics check them here:http://www.aavirtual.com/forums/showthread...=&threadid=9702And anyone interested in these resized textures, just e-mail me at [email protected]
September 1, 200619 yr I've installed them and can get everyting to work except the winter textures. When I switch the season to winter I get that dreaded error with the Send / Don't Send buttons and FS9 just quits.Any thoughts on this one? Spring, Summer and Fall all work fine.And it's winter that has the kewlest textures (I think).Thanks.Paul. Paul
