frcabot 1 Posted April 18, 2018 Hello, I purchased REX Essential Plus a long time ago, in 2013 or so. As I recall, Overdrive at one time became a free upgrade for people who already had REX Essential +. I haven't played in a long time but was thinking of booting up FSX -- it appears that the installation at one point became corrupt over the years. I went back to flightsimstore where I originally purchased the product, and while they provided a link for REX Essential Plus SP3, it doesn't include Overdrive. Is there any way to download the up-to-date Overdrive package? Also, what is the current equivalent of REX Essential + w/ Overdrive? And what are the differences between the products? Thanks, Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Galen Kingsley 224 Posted April 18, 2018 Hi Jason, If you would like REX Essential Plus w/ OverDrive, please email our Tier 2 support team at support@rexgamestudios.com Our most recent product is REX Sky Force, which is a complete overhaul of sky and cloud textures, all new cloud models, and a new weather engine. We also have Worldwide Airports, which is a comprehensive overhaul of the default airport and runway textures. For water textures, we have REX 4 Texture Direct, in addition to REX Essential. Let me know if you have any further questions! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frcabot 1 Posted April 18, 2018 Thanks, I'll e-mail them. Can you explain the difference between Sky Force, REX 4 Weather Architect, REX 4 Texture Direct, and Clouds? Does Sky Force include textures for clouds, water, etc.? It's not clear what the differentiator between these products are. As I recalled REX Essentials Plus included cloud, water, and weather textures, modification of weather, etc. Do I need separate products now for cloud textures, water textures, weather modification, etc.? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Galen Kingsley 224 Posted May 9, 2018 Hi there, I apologize that I never answered this question before! Sky Force, our latest product, adds brand new cloud models, as well as new cloud and sky textures, into the simulator. It also includes a real-time weather engine. Many old common issues, such as repeating or upside-down clouds, no longer occur with Sky Force. REX 4 Weather Architect is a custom weather engine, allowing you to create your own weather scenarios on a map and fly through them. REX 4 Texture Direct has textures in the same areas that REX Essential does, although they are all 100% unique. The Soft Clouds package adds textures of clouds with very soft edges around them for a very immersive "puffy" look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
