REX - REX Essential PLUS w/OverDrive | The FlightSim Store: Download Software - FSX Add-Ons - Environment



ANNOUNCING REX ESSENTIAL PLUS WITH OVERDRIVE!

REX Essential PLUS with OverDrive is a complete photo-realistic, hi-definition environmental weather and texture package with flight planning capabilities for Microsoft's Flight Simulator X and Lockheed Martin's PREPAR3D. Includes a robust selection of beautiful user-selectable or automatically-selectable sky, cloud themes and other environment textures, real-world and custom weather generators, real-time weather reporting & updating. Now included within REX Essential PLUS with OverDrive is the ability to download archived (historic) weather.

REX Game Studios is committed to maximizing the weather, planning and flight realism experienced by their flight simulator customers. With over 8 years of research and development, the REX line of products have become the benchmark utility for the discerned flight simulator pilot, offering a wealth of features and advances in technology.

New in REX Essential PLUS with OverDrive is the Weather Engine Plus mode, a second weather engine mode utilizing the weather theme process. This process injects real-time live weather, archived weather and even custom weather into FSX/P3D. The process is fast, eliminates flashing and does not affect frame rates. Synoptic and Micro weather station features are included, adding more depth to this new weather mode. Weather Engine Plus injects real weather including real winds and temperatures aloft. To sum it up, there are two modes in which to inject weather into FSX/P3D: the standard station mode or the Weather Engine Plus mode.

The new Download Center inside of REX allows REX Game Studios® to provide new FSX and Prepar3D content to its user-base in a timely manner.

REX Game Studios has partnered with FlightAware, the leading aviation software and data services company to expand upon real-world flight planning within REX Essential PLUS with OverDrive. REX also allows you to control environment, water and airport textures, as well as lighting effects that are so critical to the enjoyment and immersion within the flight simulator experience. All of these features may be fully manipulated to your individual tastes.

REX ESSENTIAL PLUS with OverDrive FEATURES:
  • TWO Newly-engineered, industrial strength weather engine modes with integrated real-world winds and temperatures aloft
  • Random weather generator
  • Weather Cubed Technology with server-side functionality, takes the processing duties off of the host computer for smoother frame rates within flight simulator environment
  • Built-In FlightAware flight planning within the new REX Flight Center. Ability to search for real-world, real-time IFR flights scheduled at a single airport or between routes between two airports. You are provided details about the flight and then able to import the flight plan into FSX or P3D via REX Essential PLUS with OverDrive
  • REX Edge Technology allows community integration such as sharing texture and flight plans with other REX users around the world. All REX users are now connected in various ways to each other, thus allowing them to share their creations with other REX users.
