Enhance Your World!

Imported Weather Presets and Saved Flights.
Overview
REX Atmos is a comprehensive visual enhancement utility that transforms your entire Microsoft Flight Simulator virtual world, from ground to sky. Featuring real-time rendering and full customization, this add-on lets you tailor the atmosphere, weather, and visuals like never before.
Advanced Controls
With advanced controls over visual parameters, you can create fully customizable and shareable experiences. Plus, with its intuitive, easy-to-use interface, anyone can harness the power of these features without worry.
Compatibility
Compatibility is never an issue, as REX Atmos works seamlessly with Asobo live weather, all weather engines (including REX Weather Force and ActiveSky), and weather presets. Best of all, it’s safe and non-destructive!
Simple & Easy to Use
Our intuitive interface puts simplicity first, letting you enhance your environment with just a few clicks. With a clean, organized layout, REX Atmos makes it effortless to create the perfect look. Dive in and elevate your simulation experience with ease.
Real-Time Rendering
Enjoy instant feedback as you adjust parameters, with real-time rendering that updates your changes on the fly.
Complete Customization
From ground to sky, the level of control is unmatched, offering limitless possibilities for your flight sim visuals.
Ozone Function & Rayleigh Scattering
REX Atmos introduces an advanced ozone function for realistic atmospheric visuals, along with true Rayleigh scattering for stunning light effects that bring the sky and clouds to life.
Safe & Non-Destructive
REX Atmos is built to be non-destructive, preserving your simulator’s core files while you experiment with new visual experiences. When you exit REX Atmos or select RESET within the application, your simulator seamlessly reverts to its original state.
Visual Cloud Enhancement
REX Atmos addresses the occurrence of overly dark cloud coloring (commonly referred to by the community as “ash clouds”) within the simulator, replacing it with beautifully rendered, natural looking clouds that enhance the overall visual realism. You can customize this feature to your liking, just like all the other features in REX Atmos!
Weather Scenarios
Create fully customized weather environments and save your favorite setups and share them exclusively with other REX Atmos users. Once shared, your friends can join in, experiencing the exact same weather during their flights, adding a new level of multiplayer fun and immersion.
Compatibility
No matter if you’re using Asobo live weather, custom created weather, external weather engines like REX Weather Force or ActiveSky, or saved and imported weather presets, REX Atmos seamlessly integrates with your current setup.

One of the best upgrades and purchases for FS2020, it's so much better than the default. Get it.

Rex Atmos is GREAT! The only thing that prevents 5 stars is that I have to apply the themes every time! Updated my rating! It now automatically applies your preset after opening the app!

It's very improvemental, it enhance and overhauls a lot the graphics of the program, but It Eats a lot of VRAM and CPU.. even if my system have a Ryzen 9 5900X and a 3060 GPU, the game crashes in the middle of the flight and my PC reboot's... tried without the program, and it's all Ok... Need to be improved by some aspects.. 3 Stars for now

It has improved a lot, the only flaw is that it is external, it should have a taskbar option

The app is doing it's thing, but like others, I would like to save one preset, and everytime I start the simulator, the app opens itself (like the Fenix app for example) an applies the saved or last used preset.

I also had this problem. go to https://rexaxis.com for the product management tool. When the product is not active I did a request with a ticket and REX solved my problem

I believe this product does do some nice scenic changes. However, the idea that every time you load it you have to manually load a preset on each catagory every time is ridiculous. If you want to use someone else’s preset you have to find it and load it every time you play the game. Makes it more bother than it’s worth and it’s pretty ridiculous this is a thing. I would avoid until they make it more easy to use.
Agree. The User Interface is totally garbage.

Great start ! No more pixelated clouds and an amazing environment reality configuration tunning. Love it. But, still, several points to improve: " Fire and forget " approach. The app should start automatically when the MSFS starts, and should automatically load any default Environment/Weather/Atmosphere that we had previously selected. The idea is we don't need to think to activate it and manually select the themes that we had previously created. The same applies for updates. They should be fully automated and silent. The fact that it works with real weather was a deal breaker to buy it, for me.

Pretty intuitive, but like REX's Weather Force, the App has to be run simultaneously with the sim, unlike AccuSeason, where you set it and forget it, then close the App. Needs to be made as AccuSeason, set it and forget it, then close the App, like with REX's Global Airport Textures. For the time being save your money. I can highly recommend Global Airport Textures and AccuSeason, but forget Weather Force 2020 and REX Atmos.

"I'm bluuuue dabedee dabedaaaa dabedeeee dabedaaaa...." Well if you like Eiffel 67, then buy this addon. Otherwise, save your money for anything else... ;-) Also like Saurer01 wrote, control window is too small and not scrollable, then lots of features are simply inaccessible...
