Recommendations for Clouds in VR

Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend some cloud texture packages that look really great in VR - especially just above cloud tops (or maybe still a little bit below the actual peaks). I don't care about realtime weather - just the great visuals.

Thanks

Dave W.

I find that the XP11 default clouds look really good in VR as they do not have the 2D/Rotating effect that I see in P3D (using REX + ActiveSky). On all sims that I have, inclusing AF2 and DCS, the clouds rotate in VR. Only XP11 has this "volumetric" effect for its clouds. I am not sure it is possible to fix this problem in P3D and the others.

Forget SkyMaxx for vr, at least for now. Their clouds are not compatable with vr and they don't seem to see any urgency to addressing that situation.
