I was going to say the same thing, but I didn't want to be the only one with a different opinion.  I guess the sky looks more realistic, but it also has sort of a painted quality to it.

You have the SP1 beta 2 installed. but somewhere i was reading that yoy have to install SP1 on a clean install of FSX... so do that mean that everytime you have a new SP you have to reinstall everything?

Phil Taylor mentioned that all other files than cfg should be original to ensure it will install and function correct. I also recommend, you disable ALL tweaks (like f.e. fiber frame or pool size) when you run the first tests. It's maybe a little work, but it is worth the effort. Believe me...

The last one! Do you have the original so I can put it as my background?!

Sorry Alex, i don't keep the originals. My hard drive would melt...

Well, there are many different sky textures which are changing like the default ones. I saw only a view yet, but i really like what i see. Like i said, IMO it looks more natural. The last two pics from the second set were taken at LOWI - this was for me one of the nicest evening atmosphere ever without over saturated colors. But of course some will like it better, some not

  Somehow i had to get rid of that one...

Thanks guys. Yes, X-Class and Real Sky are a great improvement and together with ActiveSky on top of the 'must have' list. It will be amazing to see what the addon future will bring us. A lot of developments are on the parking ramp untilSP1 is released. Yesterday i made an amazing winter flight with the Liberty, will post some impressions shortly.

Cheers

The best part, the price!

The addons are getting in range to where I don't even really have to think about it.

Cloud9 - XClass World CD = $31 usd (or 10 bucks for singles)
Real Sky x3 = 16 usd

You are ate up with the Cirrus craft, Mango.

[Bman.]

Do you like Eaglesoft's Cirrus SR22 more than their Liberty XL2?

That's difficult to answer... For shorter VFR hops at low altitude (called sight seeing) i really like the Liberty. For longer distances or IFR the Cirrus fits perfect. They play in a different league   .
