HD Clouds for FS9

A place to converse about the general aspects of flight simulation in New Zealand

Postby Naki » Fri Sep 18, 2009 2:41 pm

Ive been trying some new HD clouds in FS9 ..real nice and dosen't appear to have any or little FPS impact. You have to download from a Spanish flight sim site. Site is in Spanish so it takes some guess work to register (you need to register to download).

Error on download? Clear your cookies and it should work. I had to do this to make it work.

Well, that was an interesting exercise with a little help from Babel Fish. Thanks for the heads up Naki. thumbup1.gif

Not Paul, but ...

?Que? I saw no field for a passport number when I registered. Just the usual stuff all other sites ask for.

As for what I thought of the results ... I don't think they like ATI video cards. Got blocky cloud formations with very weird psychedelic striations ... talk about "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". laugh.gif

Looks very similar to the results I got by copying cloud textures from REX and reducing the resolution slightly before putting them into FS9 smile.gif

I just completed the registration and logged in, no problem. No passport # just password. Pretty straight forward.
I can half way read spanish if I know know the subject matter. Can't speak or follow it spoken tho'
Downloaded the HD clouds and now am about to install..
