    simwestALBQ does not alter KABQ in any way.  We do not include an AFCAD. You can try adding/using a 3rd party AFCAD to see if that will help your issue.  Check out the simwestALBQ Pilot's Guide.

    For any questions, you can contact us at projects@simwest.com.  Thx.

    Ok, so I get it. So its not the sunport airport at all, Its just the city and surrounding area. I wish the texture worked for me but its white and bright on my sim. I will have to pass on this one. It may be conflicting with orbx?  THanks anyway.

    I don't see what the issue is with the picture you posted. If you are talking about airport textures, this scenery addon does not replace or enhance the airport, or any airports. It only enhances the surrounding area with photo scenery plus autogen.

    The issue is there is no afcad after the install, so P3d uses another bgl that is not the simwest afcad. So it actually is not the developers scenery. That is why the ground textures did not look right. When I chose KABQ from the airport list, it loaded the APX19190.bgl because it couldnt find the right afcad. Its very weird. The only thing I can think of is the installer did not put in the main afcad for the scenery? I couldnt find a bgl that was the afcad for the scenery of Albuquerque in its install folder. I removed it and reinstalled it twice. weird.

    Getting ready to delete as well. Not using it at the moment as it kills FPS in any sort of heavy cloud - doesn't matter what settings I am using. Have gone back to Rex Textures Direct + Rex Skyforce 3D + ActiveSky for P3D.

    I will admit EF did look nice, but can't suffer the performance hit. Just holding off deleting hoping they might update EF and make it workable.

    Totally agree with you. Not compatible at all with other addons.

    Hello again Reed 🙂,

    To be fair, flight simmers work hard for their money to be able to buy rex products, so the "work hard" bit can be left out.

    Your purpose is understood. But what is not understood is we people are not misrepresenting the character of the people of rex, rather, rex is misrepresenting what they actually provide/do according to what is stated in the feature lists and the documentation (specifically, smooth wx transitions that are said to exist, that have not and still do not at this point in time). We people are just pointing that out. If ones character allows one to deceive others then that character needs to be corrected or even attacked if needed. If there is an error exposed (like way over bloated and false exaggerations in advertising), just correct the error, and stop doing it! When it happens over and over, company character NEEDS to come into question; people run companies so their character is in full play. It has to be this way to prevent corruption as much as possible.

    Clearer and more honest language in the representation of rex "weather generating" products would solve the issue. I and likely everybody else agrees that rex textures are excellent and deserve high praise. 

    For the record, I do not enjoy having to expose lies and deception, but I'm compelled to do so when the facts are plain. This tiny community cannot afford to have its major companies deceive their way to success. It will always come back to bite. 

    FACT: most skyforce users use AS for weather, but if the skyforce product worked like the documentation claims, there would be no need for AS. But in the end skyforce users paid for "AS like" features, yet still have to use or even buy AS to benefit. This should be terminal for rex business, and for the life of me I cannot understand the tolerance of such a situation when it spans over the course of several products and several years. The only explanation I can come up with is the textures are very good and it out weighs the problem to the less experienced or what I dub the "screenshot takers" who primarily fly out side of the cockpit.

    If rex has solved smooth wx transitions then that is wonderful and congratulations. If not, I again for the 3rd time suggest that rex stick with textures alone, it would be better for everybody including rex.

    For now I will trust what you say Reed, wx transitions in env force is solved.🙂

    Best wishes,

    paul

    Like I said, I'm very glad I dumped their products and chose others. Will never use their products again. I'm sure REX will never care.

    Mark it isn't really free speech. It is more spewing than giving constructive criticism. You just said we treat our  customers poorly - but no example as to how.

    I just remember you being upset on our forum about us taking a while to get the final update for WWA for P3D v4 done.  We communicated through that time it was going to take a while to complete.  We not only updated Worldwide Airports but also Texture Direct for FREE to all our customers.  Not sure how that is treating our customers bad.  Again I think it is more personal.

    wrong!

    What has happened to this community...in regard to some of these posts here.... This is just unbelievable talk about a company trying to improve our hobby, in the 35 years plus flight siming, is this how some have degraded their posts to petty put-downs and destructive opinions. Avsim what a shame but I guess when the door is open to an all you can eat free buffet...        

    This is what Free Speech is all about!

    Starting in July of about 2018 we started providing our customers with a "Customer Care Survey" to give us feedback on our handling of support.  We received about 115 reports and here are the results:

    This is based upon a rating 1 to 5.

     

    Lost me as a customer forever and will never return.  Love the products by the other companies.

    I like the products I have bought over the years. I will probably get this one too. But I agree the way they describe their products is a bit dramatic. But hey that advertising lol

    This is not about the advertising so much as they do not support their customers, talk down to them and hardly ever respond to requests. Plus updates to problems take many many months with nothing bu excuses.  Im glad I ditched them along time ago. There are better products out there.

    I can't get the trainer to work, either.  The GTN works in the simulator but the G600 does not.  Do you have the G600 and if so, is it working in the sim for you?

    I use the 750 and its not working either in the trainer.
