I'm thinking of getting REX, but I don't get the best FPS as is. How much does REX affect FPS?

Also, is there a way you can turn off REX so I can participate in the all-freeware screenshot contests?

Thanks!

Addon sceneries, in my experience, seem to be more of a hit than REX. Once you have it running, you'll never wan't to turn it off - it enhances all screenshots, regardless of category

there is no way to turn it off. It replaces WEATHER (clouds, sky, sun,), runway/taxiway, and basic land TEXTURES in the FS? / Texture folder. The only way to turn it off is to go back through and replace all the updated textures back to the original files... then when you want REX again, you basically have to REINSTALL it all over again.

After reading this, I think I'm going to get REX. Already have GEX North America. I've heard so many good things about REX.

Flying with twins is a lot of fun..
