VisualXP

VisualXP will enhance your X-Plane Atmosphere, Clouds, Water, and Scenery(Lights and Shadow) visually.

VisualXP has its own live weather resource, you don’t need any extra plugins, with this plugin you can search weather for three airports as we call them Departure, Arrival, and Alternative Airport, also you can check the weather briefings for the current position of the aircraft.

VisualXP has its own User Interface, this interface will show you the Live weather information, the search results, and the current weather briefings for the Aircraft position.

The interface has multiple tabs. These tabs have named Atmosphere, Clouds, Water, Scenery, and Weather. Each Tab has its functions, buttons, and sliders, With these Buttons, and Sliders, you can control VisualXP easily.

The Atmosphere feature will enhance the Sun lighting, Ambient lighting, Scattering color temperature, Sky colors, Fog density, Aerosol, Visibility range, Horizon scattering, and Zenith scattering.

All of these will be controlled automatically using Real calculations to make the sky looks more normal and realistic, Also we’ve added sliders for these functions, With these sliders, you can control the strength and the performance of these function as you prefer.

In the Clouds tab, we have functions and sliders which control the cloud formations, clouds visibility range, clouds brightness, clouds density, thickness, cloudiness, and clouds details, all of these will work together to give better clouds forms.

In the Water tab, there are functions to control the water wave foams, sun gloss, water wave strength, and scaling. there are sliders to control these functions as well.

In the Scenery Tab, we have Lights functions, simulating real-life fog at night where there are multiple lights that illuminate the fog. We also can Enable one of the great features of X-Plane “the Fog Spotlights” which add realistic spotlights for all objects in X-Plane. we can control the light spots’ strength on the ground as well, we have sliders to control the size and the strength of the lights as well as spots lights.

In the Weather Tab, we have three tabs inside, Live Weather, Weather Search, and Weather Briefings. in the Live Weather Tab you can enable VisualXP Live Weather Engine or disable it in case you want to use your own source, our live weather takes it data from NOAA contumely based on the aircraft location, it download required data for that location without the need to download the full report of METAR. you can also control the weather refresh time rate in case you are setting up your aircraft for departure which takes some time and needs the weather to be updated, but while you are in the sky the weather will be updated automatically depending on your location, and every weather updates you will get all needed information on the User Interface.

in the Weather Search Tab, you can get weather reports for three airports and you will get all the needed information on the User Interface, while in the weather Briefing Tab, you will have all weather information including clouds altitudes pressure, and all aloft for winds directions, winds speed, temperature, dewpoint, winds share, and turbulence, also the status of the water waves.

VisualXP Interface has three User Presets to be used to save the settings separately.

VisualXP Interface has multiple interface colors and you can choose the color you prefer for your interface.

You can restart and turn off VisualXP from within the plugin without the need to reload all plugins or plugin Admin.

Things To Be Considered Before Buying

X-Plane 12.04r3 +

If you are using DataRefTool or DataRefEditor, you need to disable them before using ViualXP, VisualXP will stop working instantly once one of these plugins is detected as Enabled. and it will inform you with a message in the user interface to disable these plugins.

Do not use any other plugin, scripts, or mods that controls one of VisualXP features as that will make conflict and will make bad visuals.

The performance will be different from one plugin level to another because of the features that each one has, the higher level will have more performance effects, but no worries with the plugin sliders you can lower the settings to fit your device capacity.

The plugin can’t work in offline mode, a connection to the internet must be available for the license system and downloading weather.

We cannot offer any demos at the moment.

The plugin has been developed using the windows 10 platform and will be for windows only at this time, sorry for Mac and Linux users, we will support these platforms in the future.

The functions of the plugin can be increased or decreased depending on the X-Plane 12 version and the ability that Laminar Research offers.

In case you need support you can use our Support Center https://simadditions.com/support/
