FEATURES

New 3D Cloud Models and Cloud Structures - The First In-Flight Sim
New 3D cloud model structures and SDK, patterned after real-world cloud classifications with their own specifications, positions and heights. Each of the 3000+ 3D cloud model structures were developed in comparison to their real-world counterpart.
We have added NEW clouds types, including; altocumulus, stratocumulus, humilis, mediocris, congestus, tower cumulus, cumulonimbus calvus, supercell and rainshaft, tornado, stratus, nimbostratus, altostratus and cirrus class. Real-world cloud model system including (but not limited to) cloud streets, super cells, wall clouds, funnel, shelf, rain shaft and tornadoes.
Restructured cloud SDK for true formation realism. No more upside-down clouds in bizarre and unrealistic positions, or cloud bases that are presented with repeating patterns.
Single-session cloud texture variation, allowing more variety during a flight session, increasing the overall realism.
The new cloud system models storm structures reaching 70,000 feet. We also modeled the base of our storm clouds and added rain shafts to calvus and incus cumulonimbus clouds of various intensities, adding to the realism. Also included are wall and shelf clouds, and in some circumstances, these will include funnel clouds and tornadoes of various shapes and sizes.

Real-Time Weather Engine
Intelligent weather engine that harnesses over 70,000 points of weather data globally. The weather engine reads and interprets live model data to sample the atmosphere and therefore will sync the appropriate clouds structures, allowing for more accuracy.
Utilizing the weather engine is as simple as opening REX Sky Force and the simulator. That's it, everything is done automatically without the fuss!

NEW Photo-Based Natural Environment Textures and Innovative Sky Atmospheric Effects (20GB)
Fully DX9, DX10 and DX11 compliant. Tailored to low AND high-end systems.
Elevate this new visual experience through our new natural, photo-based environment textures while exploiting the power of PTA integration.
New techniques create a smoother, realistic and natural sky color blending at dawn and dusk as well as newly improved visibility and fog. With VBlend and Vaporous Skies, we have achieved more realistic horizontal and vertical day, dawn and dusk fog generation and sky visibility blending.
The sun atmospheric rendering effects are very cinematic and will be noticeable through the virtual cockpit, creating even more realism. Sun atmospheric rendering coupled with HDR elements included for use in Prepar3D 3, 4, 5.

Full 10-Day Cycle Sky Texture Sets
Included is our powerful 10-day cycle sky textures category. When the Sky Force 3D 10-Day Cycle is installed, the simulator will dynamically load a different sky color transition from sunrise through sunset each day.

Lightning Fast Texture Installation.
Installing textures into the simulator is lightning fast; in most instances this process takes less than 1 second to load a full suite of replacement textures! Ability to select and install textures individually and/or create custom 'themes' to install a full suite of textures instantly.

PTA Presets Built-In
The PTA presets included in Sky Force 3D were specifically designed for use with the sky textures and atmospheric effects in Sky Force 3D. The Prepar3D Tweak Assistant (PTA) is required for use with our presets.
Included are sample videos within the application showing exactly what the PTA preset/texture combinations look like in Prepar3D. We have taken the guess work out of the equation, and presented you with a full atmospheric representation ranging from sunrise through sunset.

Simplicity!
We went through great lengths to maintain ease-of-use for our customers throughout the entire Sky Force 3D GUI experience. PTA integration is a one-click install and all supporting textures, as well as the PTA preset are installed automatically.

New 3D Cloud Synchronization Process for In-Sim Updates
Synchronization technology which dynamically syncs 3D cloud model structures in real-time during flight.

Flight Center
The Flight Center in REX Sky Force 3D is a no-nonsense tool that is geared for those who want to view their flight plans and experience true weather along a route.
REX Sky Force supports the standard XML based plan file from FSX and Prepar3D. Importing a flight plan is extremely simple.
Export support for PFPX!

Also, you can take advantage and download a community shared flight plan directly from inside REX Sky Force, from our vast community base.

While using REX Sky Force, you are immediately in contact with an enormous user base in which to share your flight plans or download another person’s creation.
If you have a flight that was more like an adventure, then simply upload it for others to enjoy!

Interactive Mapping System
Integrated interactive mapping system provides 6 weather overlays to allow you to visually sample the weather prior to departure.
• Precipitation Overlay – Just like the weather syncs systems of today; you can view all the locations of precipitation. Our precipitation does not look like speckled paint spats, but true radar echoes. This overlay is viewable with all other overlays.
• Winds Overlay – 9 levels of wind from 3,000 to 53,000 feet can be viewed in this overlay so that you can make smarter decisions for better fuel consumption.
• Temps Overlay – 9 levels of temperatures from 3,000 to 53,000 feet help you avoid potential areas and levels of icing and rime.
• Pireps Overlay – This overlay lets you read position and data from real-life pilots across the world.
• Sigmets Overlay – This overlay provides not only US-based but global sigmet data in real-time.
• Metar Overlay – Utilizing that fact that our servers download the local weather data 6 times an hour gives you the most accurate view of the local weather.
• Flight Plan Overlay – If you import a flight plan into the Sky Force Flight Center, then a visual view of the flight plan is available.
• Major Airport Overlay – This map overlay provides a vital point of reference to help you as you fly.
• Major Road Overlay – To give more detail and help especially to the pilots who like to fly VFR, we provide a significant road overlay to follow.
• Zoom Feature – Allows you to zoom into the local level and zoom out to the regional level.
• Precip Opacity – Allows you to reduce the prominence of the precipitation echoes on the various map for simple reading.

Shared Community Environmental Themes
Feeling uninspired and just want to try something new? Filter through various uploaded environment themes to try out. For ease, we have provided the means for many of these themes to be categorized based on several weather conditions. All environmental texture themes are categorized based on how a user thinks the theme appears in the simulator, such as fair, foggy, rainy and snowy weather, dust and thunderstorms etc.
REX Sky Force continues to expand the tradition of providing a connected “Shared Community” within its products. Similarly, to our Shared Community Flight Plans, you can also share your environment creations within the program!
After you create an Environment Theme, you have the option to use our REX EDGE servers to pass on your theme to the rest of the REX Sky Force community.

Never Miss an Update!
The built-in Auto Update allows REX Game Studios to quickly, effectively and effortlessly deliver periodic and crucial updates to our customers.

I bought it from the official Website. The installation was very.... long.... it took me one hour, the files are just really heavy. The Wheater-engine is ok, but I'd recommend using Activesky or P3dwx. The Clouds are really beautiful. Sadly they are just "normal" 2d Clouds which turn when you fly over them. But still 5/5 for those amazing Clouds!

nun auch kompatibel mit P3D5. Das Addon funktioniert einwandfrei, die Wolken sehen sehr detailliert aus.

Clouds are nice depending on which ones you use. The live weather is ????. Whenever the winds are changed in sim from REX they dramatically change, during my current flight I was flying with a 40 tailwind so I needed to enter a hold to lower my altitude for a suitable speed which wouldn't cause my aircraft to climb to maintain the speed. After I turned the full 180 the winds changed to a 30 kt cross wind, then when turning the 180 back on track I got a 60kt tail wind. Major downfall.

Sehr gutes Produkt und vor allem TOP Support, dort wird ganz sicher jede Frage bantwortet.

The best! and whit environment force it is as real as it gets.

2018-11-18

Weather Engine needs updates (they come) but the rest is best there is out there for P3D. Adds so many cloud variations and features that ASCA does NOT have. So worth the money for me easy.

It is a very good product. Makes your simulator look amazing, but you need a powerfull PC, specially when on rainy-stormy weather, might get you some tweaks to get it working normally with normal FPS. Some comments: - Weather injection... definitelly not the best. Active sky is way way beyond...IMHO, so i disables weather engine to use ASP4. - For textures it is excellent, clouds and estructures are just..... wonderful, and work very well with ASP4, if Active sky say there is a cloud... the structure and position is very precise. - Rain performance... i dont know but that makes my FPS struggle... - Weather dewpiction is a trick... sometimes WX Radar is not really looking at the ASP4 weather, but REX SKF, so you dont get the real depiction if REX is not showing rainclouds on its map but ASP4 does.... in any case when you get inside the ASP4 cloud formations, you ride the horse!... So need to be revised and refined. I would let HIFI people take Weather thing.... and REX people get specialized on this estructures and texture thing. It is just a perfect mix... Go support it!! Need to be refined but it is great for your Sim...

This product was hyped and not much was shown before release. This should have been the weather and cloud addon for flightsim. When the product was released I was very disappointed though. The weather engine itself is nothing compared to competitors and the program has many bugs. The visuals in the sim were very nice (which is my only positive point about it). SP1 was released short after release but this didn't help my experience with the product. After many (thousand+) hours flying in a very stable P3D V4 I experience a lot of crashed after the installation of RSF3D, which didn't happen before. (Still, could be related to something else). This resulted in a complete reinstallation of P3D without this product and I got a stable flightsim in return. Hesitating if I even should install the product again when SP2 will be released shortly. At this point I rate this program 2 stars. I find it to expensive for what it does especially with all those bugs and bad weather engine. I am sure the program gets updated throughout the years (Other products of REX have) and I have still faith in REX to turn this product around.

Unfortunatly i cannot give more because the program makes p3d crash if you leave it in background during the flight. Tested this with asp4 doing weather as suggested from many users. Too bad nobody wrote this here before otherwise i would have waited rex to solve the issue before buying it. It is a shame because the cloud and lighting model is really cool... but after 2 years of tests this problems make my doubt i will buy other rex products. At least so soon after release. And keep in mind it adds just textures and cloud model injections no real weather like asp4 so you will need it also.
