March 5, 20179 yr Hi I currently own ASNext and Rex texture direct with soft clouds,but I 'm now considering upgrading my P3d to AS16 but I'm wondering if I should also buy the ASCA addon as well Is it worth the upgrade over my current setup for weather ? When it came out I remember seeing a few people saying that the ASCA was no were near as good as the Rex textures is this still the case? I am going to stay with AS next and Rex for my FSX flying but would like to update P3d,but I 'm unsure weather to stay with the Rex Textures, or also buy the ASCA addon Any advice from current users that have had these options before upgrading. Thanks Pete Little
March 5, 20179 yr I came from ASN and REX SC, it's a good combination I would say, yes! ASCA and AS16 work together really well. The resulting clouds and weather depiction is extremely immersive and realistic in P3D!
March 5, 20179 yr I would say ASCA is worth it. You never know what your sky will look like with this app. It might be a red sunset or a golden one...depends on the conditions. The clouds also switch out based on current weather conditions...all done smoothly without you really noticing. I suspect we'll see more cloud sets added as time goes on. Also, ENVTEX adds even more skies and clouds (though, I've only used their skies so far). Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane.

March 5, 20179 yr Author Many thanks for the information guys I think i will get both Cheers Pete Little
March 14, 20179 yr If I would upgrade to AS16 and ASCA do I need to uninstall REX Texture Direct with Soft Clouds. Or can I just install AS16 and ASCA over the top? Thanks, John

March 15, 20179 yr Without starting a thread, is it worth just going from ASN to AS16? I have no intention of getting ASCA, I just want to know if there's any point in upgrading to AS16. I've read through the features of AS16 as well as threads about it but I can't seem to find any reason to upgrade without going for the combination of both AS16 + ASCA Shanan ASUS Z170 PRO, I7 6700K @ 4.85ghz (HT ON), ZOTAC AMP EXTREME 1080TI GTX (OC), 16 GB DDR4 G.SKILL TRIDENTZ RGB @ 3230MHZ CL 16-17-17-33 (OC) 4X SSDS : WIN 10 (NVME 960 EVO) + P3D + OTHER GAMES, 2X WD BLACKS RAID 0 + 1 SEAGATE BARRACUDA, CORSAIR AX860i PSU, CORSAIR 760T CASE (BLACK), 27 INCH IPS PREDATOR GSYNC 165HZ 1440p + 24 INCH IPS DELL 1080p, THRUSTMASTER HOTAS FCS THROTTLE + FCS16000M CORSAIR K95 RGB + CORSAIR M65 RGB + CORSAIR MM800 POLARIS RGB, CORSAIR H115i v2, CREATIVE GIGAWORKS 7.1 + ASUS D2X XONAR
