Couldnīt stand those fluffy default clouds no more so I treated myself with a new sky-set (zynertech ones, their products looked off for FS9 colorwise, but do look great for FSX). And violá, finally some eyecandy, together with new dusk-dawn colors decreasing the default overall pink!!

I like it!

The reason why I did not go for Active Sky or Real Sky was clear - I did not need any other interface and another setup procedure and millions of options to chose from. These ones are just installed and thatīs it!

The price was definetely allright and the result is a nice enhancement of the sim. Those default clouds looked real horrid compared to the enhanced groundtextures I used, so this further step was necesary. No performance hit either with those textures, so thatīs positive, too!

Do you get a resolution choice with them???

Nope, they obviously intend to keep the whole product frameratefriendly, so you only get a single resolution. And it works fine even with default: TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=1024. No need to change the value. Clouds look more detailed and real.

They even look good from up close!
