December 10, 20169 yr Will I need to ditch Reshade before using this? Something mentioned about it adding shaders. Kevin Humphryes
December 10, 20169 yr Pta 2.0 made reshade obsolete IMHO. Still envtex should not intrefere with shaders and if yes only with cloud ones. Tomasz Zawadzki
December 10, 20169 yr Author Will I need to ditch Reshade before using this? Something mentioned about it adding shaders. You check boxes to install stuff. Shaders is one option (I left it unchecked since I use PTA). Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane. A great landing is when you can reuse it." i9 64GB RAM, GTX-5090
December 10, 20169 yr Actually I think TOGA claimed that their cloud shaders improve performance. Maybe some solution for anti aliasing finally. Tomasz Zawadzki
December 10, 20169 yr Skies that are more blue may look nicer but I am not interested in a polaroid look The most blue sky I have ever seen was in real life. Much more blue than any REX or freeware blue sky. I've also seen extremely orange, purple and pinkish sunrises and sunsets. And I enjoyed them like hell. It's great there are addons like REX or this one, especially that they have such a large choice of colours, from blunt greyish to intensive blue, etc.
December 10, 20169 yr really on the fence on this one. I am presently using active sky 12 for textures and active sky next for weather. Does this replace active sky 12? or active sky next. I am planning on getting rex skyforce when it comes out and I am thinking that sky force will do all of this and more and I can uninstall active sky and just use rex. What will i get from envtex that i won't be getting with rex or is it even needed. The screenshots do look nice and price is probably cheaper. Thank you.
December 10, 20169 yr Moderator This doesn't REPLACE any program, it enhances them. It works best with AS16/ASCA combination due to the dynamic injection of textures by AS16/ASCA. There is a significant difference between AS16/ASCA and AS2012 or ASN even without using this product. Vic RIG#1 - I9 14900K MSI Pro z790 RTX 5070Ti 40" 4K Monitor 3840x2160
December 10, 20169 yr Author I'm mid-flight. Only installed sky, sun and moon so far and I'm using PTA2 with my own shaders. Here are two pics. More will follow if I see anything interesting...

December 10, 20169 yr I just bought it. I also have REX but use the New AS16 for P3D for the weather engine. I like what I'm seeing so far. Like the interface as well. Well thought out. Ryzen 7 5800x, 64gb, 7900XTX 24gb

December 10, 20169 yr Great pictures, Gregg! Looking at the two first images in the last set, I see great looking low level clouds on mountain slopes. Something I am never able to get looking right in FSX. Does it always look so good in P3D or is this due to this addons and/or some special tweaks?

December 11, 20169 yr does anyone know how this will compare to rex skyforce, that is whenever it comes out. i am afraid to buy this and then find out that rex skyforce does the same thing.and more. can this be used with active sky next for weather? i dont have asca so i am hoping i can still benefit from it. i do like the changing of textures each time the game loads up but i think i remember wanting rex skyforce for the same thing. i am sensing a pattern here. :smile:
