I'm just a skeptic.

Stick around for a while.  You need not be an early adopter.  I rarely fall into that category myself.  However I myself am skeptical about those that are skeptical before a release!

Reed may not recall this, but he and I went round and round several years ago about a release that was just not working for me.  I was not happy.  But at the end of the day, in the whole wide world, there was only one other end user who was encountering the same issue.  Reed fell over backwards looking for a solution, for only two customers, and was as frustrated as the two of us.  And a major update cured the issue without any of us determining why.  It sometimes happens.  End result.  I have confidence.

I am another customer at the beneficial end of a long winded solution to a problem with the original REX product.  I am, and have been, a long term fan of REX products.

I do not own REX WeatherForce but that is only a financial thing, I am however very tempted to "hop in" to this one. If it, as promised, turns adequate into great runway textures etc, I will be a happy little vegemite.

In the end, I have not had a REX product that I do not heartily endorse.

Good luck REX

Looking good, I always loved REX textures in P3D. However, I have a few questions:

- It mentions gravel surfaces. Does that mean gravel runways as well? In my opinion, that's one of the weakest points of default MSFS textures.

- Are REX textures only working with default airports, or is it possible to use it with addon airports as well? 

Thanks,

Peter

I skimmed the very pretty site for the texture pack, but maybe I missed it … are there any clear before-and-after comparisons anywhere in there?  I mean, for example, yeah, those rainy runway shots look awesome … as do pretty much all MSFS rainy runway shots.  It’s the same way I feel when the   terrain mesh products are listed.  Seems like a fair ask, no?
