August 23, 20169 yr I finally got AS16 but still contemplating on ASCA, any Thoughts? What settings will i use on AS16 or will i just use the same settings as ASN Cheers Vernon Howells
August 23, 20169 yr AS16: Clouds -> detailed Thunderstorm Clouds to "enabled" ASCA: full dynamics. For me the best settings. Note: If you have ASCA in full dynamics, you don't have to start it ever again, just run AS16 :wink: Philipp Schwaegerl
August 24, 20169 yr These 2 addons are one of the best addons that I have ever bought. In VR, these addons make the sky environment ultra real. I have it set to default settings (just reduced cloud draw to 60 - that is more than my eyes can see in VR from VC anyway). ASCA is set to 512K clouds with Full Dynamics. Click, set, minimize and forget the app - everything is done. How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)
August 24, 20169 yr what would be the combo as16, asca and soft clouds? would that work together or would it be overkill? henry
August 24, 20169 yr I removed all rex products, found I didn't need the soft clouds. ASCA does a fine job using Full Dynamics.

August 24, 20169 yr AS16 and ASCA cover pretty much all of your needs, IMO... You have the best dynamic effects, and combine it with superb graphics, all with unique smoothness. Adapt it to your PC specs, and it'll be simply astounding!

August 24, 20169 yr I have to agree, the ACSA AS16 combo can't be beaten. I was a diehard REX cloud fan. It'll be interesting to see what their SkyForce product will offer.
August 24, 20169 yr I disagree about doing away with REX clouds although I use FSX with DX10 fixer. I found the textures of the ASCA clouds a little, I dunno....cartoony. So I've gone back to use the REX soft clouds which provides a better representation I think. Thomas Derbyshire
August 24, 20169 yr All these products are good and it is great time in sim world as we all have choices to pick from How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)

So I've gone back to use the REX soft clouds which provides a better representation I think. There are some cloud representations which don't look good at all - cartoony, yes. But most of the time they are well represented and look not too bad. Although I sometimes do miss the soft cloud look
August 24, 20169 yr Today I'll try the ASCA. :smile: José Luís | Flightsimulator: | MSFS | Add-Ons: | PMDG Douglas DC-6 | PMDG 737-700 | Fenix A320 | Maddog X MD82| FSW CESSNA 414AW CHANCELLOR ||

August 25, 20169 yr Author Have to say AS16 with ASCA and having full dynamics is awsome I'm using the standard settings but does anyone have good reasonable settings to use or recommend ones? Cheers Vernon Howells

Cheers I use standard that way I never worry about this settings vs this setting (only Draw distance on my end is set to 60 due to being in VR VC all the time).
