Some of you may be seeing this add-on for the first time, so lets get to some screenshots showing this product in action (videos down below as well): In my opinion, it's quite literally the missing piece to the puzzle of X-Plane 10 to really make it feel like a complete, beautiful sim environment! SkyMaxx Pro introduces clouds aloft with wind speed, crepuscular rays, and full 3D clouds.

There's nothing new to learn here other than picking up your jaw in amazement after seeing this product work its magic! SkyMaxx Pro works SEAMLESSLY with the already existing weather menus you know how to use. To give you an idea of the user interface, here's a quick screenshot of what it looks like from within sim:Īgain, it's really important to stress here that this user interface is optional to use. All of this is coupled with the fact that almost every one of our testers notices an increase in FPS over that of the default cloud engine supplied with X-Plane!

In fact, once it's installed you really don't have to do anything different than to set your weather just as you always have in X-Plane! This said, we realize that a lot of people have different perceptions as to what a sky should look like, so we also include a wonderful user interface for this plug-in which lets you adjust sky colors, crepuscular rays, how the clouds move, and more! With all of these options available to you, not only do you get an amazing sky environment, but you also get it how YOU want it. This is all achieved with the use of a custom plug-in which also integrates seamlessly into X-Plane's weather menus and options so that you have a very minimal learning curve when it comes to using this amazing add-on. SkyMaxx Pro is an amazing new sky/cloud/weather rendering engine which overrides X-Plane's visual weather rendering (clouds, sky colors, etc) in order to provide you with an ultra realistic sky environment.

As we get closer to launch of SkyMaxx Pro (how does this weekend sound? ), I wanted to highlight some of the great screenshots and videos already taken in X-Plane 10 with this amazing sky rendering engine!įirst, let's go over what SkyMaxx Pro is and what it means for you as an X-Plane user!
