Square clouds

Featured Replies

Good evening,

I'm experiencing a weird issue with clouds in P3D v4.5 with hotfix. Look at the screenshot. I have to say it's not like this all the time, it looks like it happens only with a specific type of clouds. I'm using Active Sky for P3D as a weather engine and REX Sky Force 3D. Any ideas?

This is due to Active Sky and REX SF3D in combination. They are not compatible!

I have the same issue but with Environment Force. (I don't have Sky Force.) REX manual specifically states EF is compatible with ALL payware and freeware add-ons!

All official statements say otherwise. Can you please point me to where it says this?

Intel Core i7-6700k CPU Overclocked to 4.50GHz - 16GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce GTX980ti 6GB, Windows 10 Home 64-bit

I don't remember 100% but isn't this issue down to max and min cloud draw distance not being the same in AS?

@BillS511 I have texture resolution set to ultra and it's there, so it's not the problem for me.

@738 I have both min and max set to 110.

It's weird because it started only at some point - I never had this before. As I think about it now, it may be when I installed REX Environment Force... @Twenty6 that may be the problem. If you find any solution, please let us know.

It was on REX forums after the launch of EF and is also present here on AVSIM. The search function should bring lot's of reports. 

The problem lies within the understanding of "compatible". REX say that the square clouds are a sim limitation and that ASP4 (HiFi) injects such patterns. HiFi has obviously found a way to overcome that limitation.

So REX meaning of "compatible" is that if ASP4 injects square overcast, the textures will display square clouds *dooh*.

Users look at it a bit different since without REX, you never get to see square clouds in the sim....

So are they compatible???
