The Live Weather Engine does not include any
sky and cloud textures. For optimum effect we strongly recommend you
install FSX/P3D sky and cloud textures from packages such as
Flight
Environment X (payware) or HDEv2
(freeware) for clouds with the sky
upgraded by Danny Glover, and use the Opus Live Weather Engine for
the actual weather updates.
Since FSX/P3D cannot automatically load sky textures depending on your weather, you must ensure you load appropriate sky and cloud textures relevant to the weather you will be flying in prior to flight. Alternatively you can configure REX4 to run Opus after loading the relevant textures for you.
Opus Live Weather provides realistic changing weather patterns en route,
detailed live weather as far as you can see. |

Opus Live Camera enables you to create interesting viewpoints with ultra-realistic Dynamic Head Movement or virtual cockpit camera shake options based on actual captured 3D acceleromenter data. When flying switch between views using joystick buttons and keyboard key sequences which can be assigned to individual or multiple views.
|
With Opus Live View you can synchronize multi-screen networked displays for off-loading scenic and exterior views using ultra high-performance IPC comms.

DHM and AHM effects |
The video by John Stevens from his Mutley's Hangar review demonstrates the DHM effects, Camera transition, Landing Effects and Automatic Head Movement which are all variable and set with slider controls |

OpusFSX Entire Flight Demonstration with Meteorology PreFlight |
This excellent video was made by Alexis to showcase how Opus stands from the competition, bringing for the first time in FS History an authentic weather system simulation. You can see incoming bad weather as you approach a cold front, you descent into true overcast condition, depending on the conditions you will spend hours with no visual with the ground, you will have only clouds below you. Easily the most revolutionary thing to happen to the FS world for a long time! |

OpusFSX Turbulence |
These short videos from Johan nicely demonstrate the very realistic intelligent turbulence effects on the aircraft which are fully harmonised with the DHM accelerometer data. |

This video from Mike demonstrates external camera views and turbulence on a fast ride to Amsterdam. |

OpusFSX Weather Engine Almost Zero Visibility Demonstration |
Alexis's video demonstrates the fog effect. "I recorded this video to show you guys how fantastic this Weather Engine is. I have never before been able to get a real Overcast Condition with my FSX. The Weather Engines would try to cover the ground with Fog, but you could see through it, as this is an FS Limitation. Anyway. This airport had a pretty bad FOG limiting the visibility to only 100Meters, and no wind to blow it away, pretty much a pilot nightmare. To give an authentic Simulation of this conditions, you shouldn't be able to see the ground as you approach the airport, because of the FOG over it, if you can see the runway before penetrating the FOG Layer, then your simulation is not realistic anymore, since that's absolutely not what you would find in RW. You can't see if you're landing on the runway, or heading direct to a Residential Building until seconds from the touchdown, you have to rely on your instruments all the time. FSX never had this feeling, now with OpusFSX I Really believe they have found several ways to make it more realistic than ever, and I have recorded this video so you could see it with your own eyes." |
