That would be grand Steve and by all means recycle I did wonder about the reg, as I seemed to remember you saying something about this before, just do the best you can - I can't wait to try it

I installed ASX again today after a last attemp with the REX engine and what a difference - a pretty acurate match for my local conditions, no horrid low level haze layer and far nicer looking arrangments of clouds. I think I read that the REX engine is going to have a rewrite, so there is hope that a single package will be able to do it all.

We had thundery showers with periods of clear sky this afternoon and this is what ASX gave me - not bad, even the odd flash of lightning.

Nice shots SJ. How did you avoid that hard haze layer. I always seems to get that with ASX. That water looks amazing. Looks like a great combination.

I didn't do anything, but I know what you mean and have seen it, but only at higher altitudes I think. I did pass through some abrupt changes of visibility, but no hard line was visible above.

Bearclaw - that looks very complex for a simple, rule breaking, VFR flyer I don't think I would be tolerated for long, as though I try not to be reckless I am not one for procedure. The idea a flying with other real flyers in the sky does appeal though.

Here's some shots from tonight.

That scenery looks quite nice, though they seem to have let a five year old with plastic scissors do the coast line - it lacks any blending and this makes the land look like it's floating on the water rather than sitting in it.

Yeah I do quite like this scenery. I've been using this instead of FTX lately. It's 50cm/pixel with 10m mesh and full hand placed autogen. The performance is superb, as I run it at extremely dense autogen with my framerate locked at 24fps, and even with the frame killer Aerosoft F-16 it stays pegged at 24fps with sharp terrain textures at all times, no blurries.

I did sharpen these images so it might not be quite as detailed at it appears here.

Wow, that's amazing.

Wow, amazing. That water is FANTASTIC!

It's Madeira X by Aerosoft - Silly's are the best shots I've seen of it. I personally didn't think it looked as good as Megascenery's Hawaii, but I think most of the other shots I've seen have been a bit crap.

Nice shots slaWter. I like the 5th one from the bottom the best.
