THE DAWN OF A NEW ERA!

Announcing Real Environment Xtreme™! A first of its kind product... a complete photo-realistic, hi-definition professional graphics package for Microsoft's Flight Simulator series created entirely from state-of-the-art photography. INCLUDES our NEW built-in Weather Engine and Flight Planner! The texture sets within Real Environment Xtreme™ coupled with the powerful NEW Weather Engine and Flight Planner provides for an exhilarating and realistic experience. Real Environment Xtreme™, code named REX, has taken almost two years of research & development to reach the level of detail that exists today.

REX is a technologically & artistically advanced, hi-definition texture utility for the simulator pilot who requires a more advanced feature set. THE BULK OF THE CONTENT has been produced from extremely hi-resolution film photography, NOT digital, with the upmost artistic attention to detail. Source material was laser drum-scanned and the proprietary artwork and textures are maintained in hi-definition format to allow its amazing detail and clarity to become evident within the simulation environment.

Real Environment Xtremeâ„¢ (REX) Features:


  • User-friendly intuative and visually pleasing interface
  • Full-featured NEW built-in Weather Engine (Built on Real Life meteorological algorithms using synoptic, meso-scale, and micro environment weather formulas for Real and Custom weather)
  • Flight Planner (Ability to create and file a Flight Plan using true to life flight requirements)
  • Hi-definition, ultra-realistic photo-real 3D clouds (stratus, wispy, cumulus and highly realistic rendering of cirrus clouds as seen in the real world)
  • Sky color environments (Includes smoothing horizon transition & visibility smoothing for dawn, day, dusk & night)
  • Convincingly real water environments with tropical reef simulation (end user color controllable, including tropical with reef simulations, inland and ocean, wave turbulence/frequency, environment variants & coloring. Also new realistic type of wave and reflection included in many variations for shader 1x and shader 2x INCLUDING DX10 Compatible)
  • Airport environments (photo-real asphalt & concrete runway textures, new runway and ground bump-mapping, asphalt taxiways, concrete taxiways, realistic taxiway markings, airport signage, airport parking and general photorealistic airport ground scenery)
  • Multiple variations of sun, lens flare & brand NEW lightning bolt algorithms, which creates a visually stunning array of lightning situations
  • Fully integrated to select Sky, Cloud, Water, Airport, and Effect Themes based upon weather situation, season, and other synoptic, meso-scale, and micro weather conditions
  • Enhanced Cloud Simulation to give a more 3D volumetric feel to cloud structures and the atmosphere
  • Lighting environments (runway lighting including simulated ground glow, stunningly realistic aircraft spotlights with variations for small to large aircraft, aircraft strobe lights, variations for add-on aircraft as well)
  • 3d cloud & water resolution options for performance preference
  • Flexibility to work in tandem with other vendor weather & texture packages

    FANTASTIC! Flying just isnt the same without REX.
On the ground the sky looks alive.........once you have taken off and passing through the clouds it is amazing how real it looks. at 35,000 feet it is breath taking.
Set up is simple although can take a little while to get exactly what you are looking for but it is utterly worth it.
Dont worry about frame rates, if anything it improved FPS. Well worth the money. Ive owned this product for just under a year now and no problems to report
