Is there any point getting this if you already have the Zinertec HD airports product?  Thanks.

What a pointless video.

... and why is that?

Bruce, look at the feature list of both products. http://www.rexworldwideairports.com

I'd also like to know. That video shows everything about the product that was previously asked for. Someone asked for screenshots, I provided a video. Seems to me it has quite a point. Hey, I could be wrong and totally off topic though right?

I couldn't find a comparison list of both product's features here but perhaps I didn't look hard enough.  Maybe someone who has the Zinerteck HD airports product and the REX product would oblige with an opinion.  I have a large collection of payware airports plus many otherwise enhanced airports inc. orbx freeware, Zinerteck etc.  Would need some convincing that the REX HD airports would add all that much to what I already have.  Thank you.

Usually developers screens and vids a little enhanced so to speak.

 

Nope they aren't.. actual screen captures from the video itself. None of the material is enhanced at all.

My thoughts...

The camera moves too fast to see any detail, most of it's just all a blurry panning mess for me.

There seems to be no thought as to what the camera operator is doing. Perfect example is 1:28 - 1:40

I found myself focusing on the aircraft a bit too much, which isn't what the is supposed to be showcasing.

A lot of repetition. Could have shown off more locations instead of just (2?) airports. 

 

Small points that you can see the time preview box (screams amatur)

Sheesh man.  Search youtube.  plenty of people put up videos on REX WWA.   I know they aren't professionally choreographed and directed pieces of art but hey what can you do when you don't have Scorcese directed Flight sim videos. 

 

Especially when up until a week or two ago only one camera program existed for FSX/P3D.  And was far from cinematic.

 

REX next time please get Christopher Nolan to direct the video preview of your $20 product. That is all.

Maybe  you need to adjust your monitor. Looks pretty good to me, with nothing that is blurry.

Can anyone post a pic of KROC, this is the most un updated airport around.

Also will this program update the textures on existing personal software updated airports?

Hi Bruce,

 

I have posted few comparative screenshots between Zinertek HD and Rex WWA.

I believe it would help you decide.

Please see here:

http://www.avsim.com/topic/497515-zinertek-or-rex-wa-comparison-screenshots/

For me, no doubt at all, REX is much complete, the textures are just superb and the effect on VAS or fps is marginal.

Not to say that Zinertek textures are bad, some are even better, but I prefer REX ones on most of the textures sets.

I am trying to decide, but one thing that is not clear in the manual is once you create a theme, that gets applied to all airports worldwide. Can you then come back and change just an individual airport of your choice? If you make a new theme for that airport of choice it seems like that new theme gets applied to all other airports as well. In other words, you can't really control what you get at a specific airport, can you?
