Hi all, firstly i hope i have posted this in the right section?  I am new to flight simulator however i am loving every minute (only 60 hours flight time so far)

I have been browsing this forum quite alot especially the picture section as i am blown away by some of the scenery and mods created and shared on this site. I have noticed alot of the pictures show spectacular cloud and water/ocean effects, i have a modern alienware machine and i am running fsx on highest graphic settings but the visuals are nothing in comparison to some of the photos i have seen!

Im guessing that there must be mods for cloud, smoke and water effects? I was wondering if you could recommend the best ones to save me browsing and install time? Also any other eye candy mods that you can recommend would be appreciated.  Smiley

Many thanks in advance.  Scott Fletcher

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
