    REX Essential Release

    Gents,


    In LESS than 2 hours REX Essential for FSX and Prepar3D will be released... FREE to all of our current customers. If you do not own REX, the flightsimstore.com will have it ready as well. Visit our forum and get verified so you may have access to the free update when it's released. Our forum has a countdown timer, and once it counts down, we will release the product as well as our new website. Be sure to check out the site for more information at that time! http://www.realenvironmentxtreme.com


    Cheers,
    Tim

    Who knew today would be the day the credit card gets burned up? Looking forward to release guys! Be great to have a proper weather engine in FSX, and just in time for hurricane season too.

    Hi Bone, for those of us who upgraded to the overdrive version we will have to wait until further in the week to get Rex Essentials due to some coding changes.
    As far as the brief description of Rex Essential :isadizzy:, I don't think their is one lol. See this link

    So if I don't have any REX product I should be good then? Probably should uninstall FEX though I imagine.

    Beware that the version released is for REX2 users and not for REx2 Overdrive users. The second will be release later on i guess. :salute:

    I wonder how long the Overdrive folks (like myself) will have to wait? Not that it matters too much. They are offering this as a free upgrade. I am very thankful to the REX team for this. I look forward to it!

    ...Can this be installed over the existing install or do I need to uninstall REX2 and Overdrive beforehand?

    Some piccies...... 1st three over Puget Sound heading south to SeaTac @ 18:35 Zulu. 4th pic... Eds Field, Arizona at sunset with Mt. Newman and Picacho Peak below @ 19:13 Zulu.

    Great performance... negligible fps hit and mighty fine details... the cloud bottoms are darker.


    Edit:Last pic.... Yep typical Oahu... 17:35 Zulu... and clouds over the Koolau's (Windward Side of the Island)

    Do you notice a stutter or hang when the weather updates? How about overcast? Is it more accurate?

    So should one uninstall REX2 Overdrive and install REX Essentials instead? Can not make up my mind about it...

    Okay, I give up....

    I can't find it on the REX Forum, but as a verified REX 2 user, I know I can get the upgrade gratis.....I just can't figure out how to do it.

    I bought mine at the Flightsim store, and I could just log into my account and download the Essentials pack under my Rex 2.0 order.

    Seems you have to be a verified purchaser and add your product number to a thread on their forums.

    Yep, soon as I posted I went to my account, and sure enough, the REX 2.0 had already been replaced with REX Essentials...."doh"......

    At this point, I think it takes a while to download, even with IDM....

    Did you uninstall REX 2, or was yours a completely new install?
