I will be buying the Rex addition here in a moment, but I do love the Real Taxiways, cost notwithstanding. It totally changes my experience when trying to taxi properly. I think the two together are a winning combination. Thanks for the great review!
I have both REX and Black Square, I like both for different textures. I also liked that you chose my favorite local international airport, KLAX, for your demonstrations 😀
@@PIEINTHESKYTOURS lool. Thanks bro. Everytime I see LAX, whether here in real world or the sim it makes me want to fly in and out of it in real world and sim
I very much appreciate your coverage of texture enhancements and I'll probably end up with one of them, given the obvious improvements. However, I REALLY liked your choice of airports for illustrating these products - I grew up in that town just to the south of LAX and not only recognize the airport landmarks, but those buildings just outside the airport (even worked in one of them when I was in engineering school); I love the amount of detail and accuracy that MSFS has already achieved and I found myself watching the edge of your screens as much as the details you were showing! Used to ride my bike over there all the time when I was a kid, such a thing was still possible and helicopter-parents didn't exist - many adventures and memories from the "old" LAX. Thanks again.
do you know if they have made it better in 1 year's time? you made that comment 1 year ago so I'm just trying to see if it's still good and if they fixed a lot of things that people were complaining about?
I agree with you regarding the Rex Real Global preference. In fact, I bought that addon about a month ago. I see that you posted this video about a year ago, so it's possible that I've seen your review before and went with your analysis back when I bought it, but I can't be sure. Either way, the Rex product does a great job. I often choose the worn markings but found them hard to see when I fly in low-light or night-time hours, (particularly on underdeveloped airfields). Therefore, if I anticipate a lot of night flying or heavy fog and/or stormy conditions, I switch to the "New" markings. The process only takes a few seconds so I don't have to lose a lot of time making the change. Thanks for the video! Rich
Awesome video! I agree with your recommendation and will be making a purchase. Thanks for this informative video (and the other useful MFS2020 videos you have produced). :)
Thanks for your video ! It helped me with my decision. First I will try Rex and if the Taxi signs don't satisfy me, I'll add Real Taxiways w.o. textures later.
Thx Chris. Excellent video. I went with the Rex too. Found them most realistic. Thought about the taxi signs addon but was not sure if it is worth the price. But for VR it could be very good because of the better readable of the signs. Take care buddy
Somebody new how have to turn it OFF the TEXTURE what he mention in this tutorial? Where have to turned OFF? It have to do in msfs 2020 / General Options?
It's absolutely absurd we have to pay $40 just to get the correctly named taxiways in the "Most Realistic Flight Simulator" for $120... FSX and even FS2004 had 'em named correctly
all hail the Pied Piper, simian solution to all your VR needs, easily the best MSFS channel on youtube, there are others which also provide value but i don't want to watch some guy sitting in his basement while he talks into a mic, the Pied Piper of Pie In The Sky Tours has strong production values and provides measurements vs. subjective opinion as other channels do, maybe i missed it but can you do a video on G2 reverb prescription lens adapters?
A great review and comparison video. One thing I'm not clear on from your video is, do they also upgrade the ground textures in payware airport scenery?
Ok you use a 3080, what about performance with a 2080Ti ? can I also achieve 45fps on some high and ultra settings with all these add ons. Good video and much appreciated. They certainly give an excellent feeling of immersion. I have subscribed to your channel now and look forward to more Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 videos and tutorials from you.
@@PIEINTHESKYTOURS hello I have a question, have a I7 11700 and a Rx6700xt 12gb . have the Real Global Airport Textures from zinertec and have at the airport partly since then only 25 fps . my graphics settings are also not all on ultra . so that's why I think not . Any idea why?
Nice comparison! I got REX Textures and I was wondering if I can switch between NEW and Worn Out Textures from time to time and will there be any conflict? And how I should go about switching them.
Best review. Thank you man! I got a question though, do you have an addon installed for the AI aircraft liveries such as the a380 Quantas, if so, how and where can I get it?
Very good work! Thank you! Great comparision. (Y) I will go with Rex too. The USA is not very exciting for me, because it's not global, yet very expensive for what it does.
@@leohors852 Hi, Leo! I am not involved, but I did purchase GSXPro. My main reason was not the catering truck - for example. (Well, I fly private jets and the Cessna 172, so...) I only cared about the marshaller's follow me car. Having that now, that's huge deal for me.
From the video it seems that Zinertec is the only one that allows you to choose the installation folder. I am storing all my addons outside the community folder (because it is encrypted) and have the addon linker with symbolic links pointing to the community folder.
Zinertec is available on Xbox.. very nice stuff! Just one thing, I think taxiways colours is near orange vs yellow usually. What do you think about it ?
Is there any add-on that improves airport lighting (runways, taxi lines)? The default lighting is completely unreal, it is too bright and too visible from a distance - it glows like a Christmas tree. ;-)
can i install it on another drive like the f drive 2tb sata drive and then move it to the community folder or does the install has to be on main c drive im going to get the rex global textures
Hey, there I have a question? For some reason I am entering my NAME, Email, Serial number and the store I had bought if from which was SIMMARKET and the item I had bought was ''Rex global textures'' but every time I enter all the information I click on ''Register'' but it is not letting me do you know how to fix this? Edit: Is because I bought it from the sim market?
I'm following your channel and asking for help. A few days ago I installed "Rex Real Global ...." and I don't know what's wrong. The dozen airports I loaded and used look exactly the same even though I changed the settings!I even reinstalled RRGAT, anyway. Everything looks brand new and the same as by default.And so I wanted some oil and dirt ..... :) I don't know who to ask for help. I can't find a forum to turn to. And direct communication with the manufacturer to ask for advice, I do not know how? If you can help me in any way, thank you very much!
@@PIEINTHESKYTOURS Yes, of course, that is the very beginning of the installation and it can be changed later. I just tried that but it doesn't work .... I hope for now! I am confused because no error was reported to me. Thank you for your attention and possible help!
" All airports will now display the new REX textures UNLESS you are using a payware or freeware add-on airport that only utilizes their own texture assets.

The video on the JusFlight is no better than MSFS on the taxiway just after the high speed from runway 25R-7L at B5 a taxiway sign is in the middle of the taxiway.
This is exactly what I was looking for - thank you! I'll definitely be picking up the REX & Black Square products now.

Your demonstration is awesome, it is clear and targeted. 4 choice to compare and personal option for choose... 5*

Outstanding work showing the differences. It was close between Rex and Zinertek but I prefer the Rex version by quite a bit.

Thats my main problemm right now, Thay are always on, even on clear daylight, and on airports that sometimes dont even have runway lights
can i install it on another drive like the f drive 2tb sata drive and then move it to the community folder or does the install has to be on main c drive im going to get the rex global textures
Thanks for the comparisons. Do any of these affect grass runways/taxiways?
I mean somewhere like EGHR Goodwood, where they have grass runways - do these products affect those?
@@PIEINTHESKYTOURS OK thanks
Hello, I wonder to know Is it worked only default sceneries?
Thank you so much
For the Rex texture what do u put in for serial key because I pasted every possible opinions
What do you mean you turn the texture off for real taxiways USA? I dont see that option to disable the textures?
Will REX still not work on 3rd party addons? Some of them use the ASOBO standard runways :/
Will this pack help the rendering stutters on the ground so that my plane doesn’t front flip on tskeoff
