November 5, 20169 yr Personally, I am quite happy with the product. Zinertek served me well, but I like the Rex variations, and as usual their textures are excellent. I am not too concerned that a few airports are not upgraded. Either I will visit the airport infrequently, or I may get a dedicated scenery for it anyway. Peter
November 5, 20169 yr Author Right, textures are really excellent and just for that I don't regret purchasing it. But I'd really wish the international airports and the control towers textures to be replaced to be fully satisfied. Or REX should better advertise and describe their product to avoid frustration. - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.
November 5, 20169 yr But I'd really wish the international airports and the control towers textures to be replaced to be fully satisfied. Same opinion here!. Not updating the Control Tower textures is not acceptable.

November 5, 20169 yr Honestly, as an owner of the Zinertek product, I see absolutely no need to purchase the REX product. For me, the difference is not significant. And everybody who already owns the Zinertek product knows that the improvements by these global texture replacement add-ons are nice but rather limited. Even with the new textures, the default airports will never come even close to an add-on airport. Not even close to a decent freeware add-on airport...

November 5, 20169 yr Commercial Member Same opinion here!. Not updating the Control Tower textures is not acceptable. Cheers, Ed Ed - We were not able to cover everything within this release. Like ALL our products we ALWAYS add FREE additions. So expect those to be updated. To be far there is A LOT of work in making airport textures for both day and night.

November 5, 20169 yr Thank you for your posted comparisons. This is very helpful for me. Honestly, as an owner of the Zinertek product, I see absolutely no need to purchase the REX product.

Even with the new textures, the default airports will never come even close to an add-on airport. Not even close to a decent freeware add-on airport... I totally agree. The differences are not worth me spending more money when I already have and enhancment that it fairly good. What I found was that I installed Zinertek HD Airports, then using REX selected the runways theme and installed them that suits me and this improves default airports nicely. Its all I need.

I know during the live stream on ADX there was mention of still much work to do on the airport vehicles. Jason Weaver - WestWind Airlines; FlyUK Airlines; VirtualUnited.org

November 5, 20169 yr Commercial Member Hi, Reed: I'm pretty sure you'll do, really. I'm always confident and satisfied by the high quality of your products. Thanks for considering. Ed Thank you Ed for your support and patience! Reed- So is there a plan for forthcoming updates to say towers etc? I know during the live stream on ADX there was mention of still much work to do on the airport vehicles. Our next project is to put the finishing touches on Sky Force and Environment Force. While we work on that our design team will be working on the Towers and several other features as well as more vehicles. We will also address the 20 custom airports. But that will be a little more delicate in that we don't want to cross over into something like what ORBX does.

November 6, 20169 yr Hi Carlo, Honestly, as an owner of the Zinertek product, I see absolutely no need to purchase the REX product.It's just textures. Nobody really needs this kind of product, but they both make FSX/P3D look nicer. It is a matter of taste of course, but I personally am happy with having moved from Zinertek to Rex. Peter

Even with the new textures, the default airports will never come even close to an add-on airport. Not even close to a decent freeware add-on airport... I also agree. I have Zinertek's HD Airport Graphics currently installed and I think it already does a good job at enhancing the default airports around the world. Plus, Zinertek's does improve the control towers which look like an eye sore with the default textures. After watching a few youtube videos of users showcasing REX WorldWide Airports HD, I'm not blown away to be honest. That being said, thanks to David for taking the time to show us comparison screenshots between both products. Nice job!
