shane2801 Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Hi guys Ive always been a big fan of active sky when using P3D but when it comes to MSFS is there something that exceeds or matches Active Sky? Still waiting for Active Sky to release MSFS version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dow Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Rex have a weather add-on for msfs but honestly the live weather in msfs is good enough for me 90% of the time. But... Rex weather has a series of scenarios such as approaching cold front etc which work well on flights longer than local jaunts, last time I tried I think it was an hour in GA to complete the sequence. Might be YouTube examples? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfko Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 (edited) MSFS default live weather is by far more realistic than Rex live weather. Bought Rex, used it for a few weeks, dumped it. MSFS live weather is so good, that there is also no need for AS. I guess AS developers are thinking the same.

bvdboomen Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 MSFS default live weather is also still in development and the API is closed for third party developers. So there is no chance that a 3PD will make an alternative. I thought the REX weather app is not 100% taking over the weather because of that closed API. Maybe a more intelligent way of drawing clouds? Also, like stated above, I believe the MSFS weather is pretty good with just some room for enhancements but overall, I am in no need of an external weather program. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
