REX AccuSeason Released Today

Thanks, but those high altitude pics would anyway not show the patchy loading, this is more visible when going low and slow and difficult to catch with screenshots. It is more like you see the mask tiles being loaded around the aircraft. I will test Bijans mod again with SU10, then I will know if it still exists

Mike anyway of adding settings to get automation to update in the background or shut down again after updating?

Also add an option for update at log on rather than having to do this manually through task scheduler?

Following the favorable comments here and the noticeably good dev. support I finally decided to buy this today.

I did have an installation problem to start with in that it didn’t appear in my Community Folder and so it obviously wouldn’t work. I guess it thought I had a custom CF although I have never moved it from its default location. Not a problem anyway. I just uninstalled it and set it up using the Custom Folder option.

So far I’m really pleased with it after about half an hour flying around various locations in the PMDG DC 6.

I can confirm that for me on my system using DX11 (quality) there appears to be no noticeable fps hit which, I think, is pretty impressive.

I’m well pleased with my purchase and very much looking forward to any future updates.

Good job :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi BenMapp. Good suggestion and I can tell you that this sort of thing has been discussed with our technical person, Reed, who has something along these lines in the backlog. We will look into this sometime in the future once we have completed the large amount of work directly ahead of us. Thanks. :slight_smile:

Great thanks for the feedback :+1:

Two things that I find utterly annoying in AccuSeason:

  1. The silly “birds and water” sound it makes when starting up. Why would you want to play a long and loud sound when you start an app? COuld this please be removed, or at least could we get an option to turn this off?

  2. The automation, that is used to automatically change the season. This just creates a Task Sheduler schedule. This would be fine if it wasn’t for the fact that 1) the darn “birds and water” sound is playing whenever the automation runs, 2) it opens AssuSeason, usually when I’m in the midst of something else, and 3) It doesn’t even close AccuSeason when it’s done. The only right way to do this would be a task that is silently starting in the background without the GUI popping up and annoying sounds playing.

As above I’ve asked about these things it’s potentially going to get looked at at some point they’ve said to add closure or update in background.

Hopefully some startup options will get added at some point for silent update, update at start-up, update in the background or close down after updating at least.

For what it’s worth; as soon as the sound started playing, I muted the app in the windows volume mixer. It retains that setting, so I’m not bothered with any sound anymore.

Still have to manually close the app after it’s done its thing though.

Hi All. Here is a video we just posted that shows the weekly change of vegetation colors starting with late summer, through autumn, and into winter.

Do the trees loose their leaves over winter?

Yes, hence the name “Accuseason”: in summer trees are green, autumn they turn brown and start to shed leaves, winter leaves go, spring they start growing back.

Cool thanks :+1:

Here is a video that shows the leaves growing back from winter into Spring. The video also shows the weekly transition of spring coloring, including spring floral vegetation, throughout that season and through summer as well.

Is the product worth to buy it? Thx for your infos

Yes it’s really good makes the world look more realistic especially with autumn arriving at least here in UK. Rather than having a static world.

Hello. Is the loss of SPF known during the S10 beta regulated?

IMO yes. Enjoying it right now with autumn colours. Very easy to set up. Just need to set automation up or set the week manually -a one click once a week thing. Can’t complain about the trees/colours/types/foliage they look lovely, you can even scale them in options.
