Active Sky X

This is a complete and robust system that provides the highest level of realism possible through all facets of weather simulation. Active Sky X is a complete re-design over previous versions, bringing to the product the latest development technologies, a new approach to user interface design, and a robust architecture. Using a newly-designed, simple yet pleasing graphical approach to navigation and functional usage, all the data you could possibly want is now brought to you in a very easy-to-understand visual format. Also, the entire weather synthesis and processing system is designed to work smarter and faster, with increased coverage, quicker downloads and processing, and cool new features like the ability to access and playback historical weather data while remaining online! Adapted for SimConnect, Active Sky for the first time ever communicates directly with FS without the need for any other interfaces. Flight Simulator X users get more efficient and flexible routines for re-creating weather patterns, bringing you beautiful and realistic weather depiction to your simulated flights.
