September 22, 20169 yr AS16 come with its own texrures? It does not but they sell a texture replacement program that works with ActiveSky 2016 and it's called Active Sky Cloud Art. It has the ability to replace your sky and cloud textures dinamically based on weather conditions that it reads of a METAR.

September 22, 20169 yr ..my 1,000th post... Congrats Yes, without a doubt. And with ASCA even better. Deleted Rex off my HDD.( Texures ) However, I am very keen to know more about REX Skyforce. That looks amazing which I hope can be coupled with AS16.
