So Ive done some research on REX and have read all good but some bad reviews. I want to here the opinions of anybody here who uses REX. Thanks

Best addon there is. Wouldn't fly anymore if I didn't have it.

How do you read "ALL" good if there are some bad??
The textures are nice, I dont like the weather engine, it sticks a message bar up every few minutes telling you what its doing.
If there's a way to turn that off I havent seen it. When I do run with an engine I use ASE instead.
Just remember, if you go and put in those BIG lucious cloud textures its gonna cost you some performance,
so if you dont have a kickin FSX machine you might think twice.

I have REX. Makes sure you do not install any airport textures from this product. Your landing & taxi lights will no longer illuminate the ground after REX airport textures are installed.

I have REX for FSX and FS9 and i actually did the texture upgrade for the landing/taxi lights because they were no longer so over powering across the ground that made it almost impossible to read ground markings.

If you have a good machine .. there is nothing in the market even closely matches the REX experience.
HDE and all are good .. but REX effects stand way apart ..
My suggestion is to go for it. Do some research before you press the 'Buy' button and keep a manual copy of the textures folder(s), just in case.
