Silver_Dragon Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Calentinto de los foros de AVSim http://forum.avsim.n...-of-active-sky/ Hello Everyone!!! It is with great excitement that we announce our next product: Active Sky 2012 for FSX! Active Sky 2012 expands on the award-winning Active Sky Weather Engine and combines it with brand new high-definition graphics, fully integrated to debut what we call "Total Weather Immersion". Over 16GB (uncompressed size) of high-definition graphics textures in dozens of categories are at your fingertips - accompanied by advanced imaging techniques including high-quality down-sampling and user-recoloring. Easily create your own texture variations with a few clicks of the mouse. Route awareness, weather-influenced selections, custom themes, universal graphics add-on integration and a clean, intuitive interface provide robust command of the total experience. Other new features include improved flight planning, auto routing, route export, integrated mapping and route-editing, drag and drop waypoints, improved weather depiction, improved performance, enhanced thunderstorm depiction and much, much more. We are currently in the final testing stages in preparations for release, hopefully by the end of this year. Please note that all past Active Sky/X Graphics customers will be eligible for an upgrade, and we have additional discounts planned for those upgrading from the most recent HiFi product release (ASE). Upgrade and pricing details will be provided very soon. Over the next few days, we will be providing full product information, screenshots and even a video. Please stay tuned for more!

Silver_Dragon Posted December 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 (edited) Mas datos: minoslas, on 05 December 2011 - 12:21 AM, said:1 future version for xPlane or other simulator, Flight, Aerosoft Sim, etc? 2 Changer for 2012 to ASE, new additions or features? Hi, Yes we are already working on product variations for XPlane 10, Prepar3D and FS9. When Flight SDK is available we will work on that as well. And a full feature list and details, screenshots and even a video will be posted VERY soon! Imagenes de preview oficiales (FSX) AvSim Hello, First of all, AS2012 retains the universal graphics add-on compatibility via the Snapshot system you've seen in ASE. You're existing graphics add-on library is safe and can be utilized within AS2012 with full wx-influenced support once you create snapshots. In addition, you can create combinations of graphics (i.e. Clouds from add-on A, water from add-on B, Airports from AS2012, Skies and everything else from add-on C) with the snapshots, again, all with wx-influenced support. While AS2012 includes a very large assortment of HD graphics with customization/recoloring support which should satisfy nearly all users, we wanted our user's investment in their existing graphics collection to further improve their experience, instead of making such investments obsolete. Therefore, with AS2012 you gain a bunch of new styles of high-quality graphics and get to keep and use whatever you had before as well. As for those who've purchased ASE, we are planning on two upgrade discount paths... one for those who've purchased past products, and one (more significant discount) for those who've purchased the most recent release (ASE). Further details on this will be announced soon. Please note that ASE was also discounted in preparation for this release. Also, ASE is not being made obsolete by AS2012's release. ASE will continue to be sold and supported as our wx-engine only product for FSX and FS9. Stay tuned for some screenshots :) Edited December 5, 2011 by Silver_Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumpcore Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Lo de combinar ASE junto con un paquete de texturas propias de alta calidad hacía ya tiempo que se demandaba. Porque vale, ASE+REX tiene un aspecto excepcional, pero hay que crear manualmente cada juego de texturas según las condiciones climatológicas, y resulta un poco engorroso. Gracias por la noticia, sabía que HIFI iba a sacar en breve algo por el estilo, pero si lo van a hacer incluso antes de final de año, mejor que mejor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danipelos Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Lo más interesante es la compatibilidad con X-Plane. ¡Pasito a pasito vamos avanzando! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De verguenza que X-Plane no lo traiga implementado de serie... Edited December 5, 2011 by SERGI- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japo32 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Lo que me extraña es que lo saquen tan rápido. Bueno no se a quién mandó Austin las betas para que las estudiara.. pero me parece muy rápido que salga este añadido para xplane10 cuando acaba de salir. Bueno.. habrá que ver como es...

danipelos Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) Leyéndolo más detenidamente no parece que vaya a ser compatible con XP10 sino que más bien pretenden sacar (más adelante entiendo) una versión en exclusiva para el simulador de Laminar, por lo que me imagino que si quieres disfrutarlo en ambos simuladores deberás pasar dos veces por caja. ¡Qué dilema!

Dagorex Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Que buena noticia.. por fin no tener que utilizar REX para texturas y ASX para la meteo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumpcore Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Ya ha salido el precio de venta oficial de la nueva versión: 50 euretes. Se pondrá a la venta el próximo lunes (19), salvo para los poseedores del ASE, que podrán disfrutarlo a partir de mañana viernes. Los poseedores de ASE disfrutarán de un despuento del 40% (30 €), pero solo este finde. El que esté interesado que no pierda esta oportinidad. El resto de usuarios podrán disfrutar de un descuento del 20% (40 €) hasta el próximo 8 de enero. También podéis descargar el manual oficial y ver si os interesa. Entre las novedades en el motor meteorológico se ha mejorado la simulación de la capa de niebla (fog layer) y pulido algunos defectos de versiones anteriores. Por lo demás, es como juntar ASE+REX. Es exactamente igual, con todas las ventajas que supone tener ambos productos integrados en uno solo. http://www.hifitechinc.com/news/39-active-sky-2012-pricing-and-upgrade-details-announced http://www.hifitechinc.com/products/active-sky-2012 Ya se me está haciendo larga la espera hasta mañana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver_Dragon Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Esperemos que todo el trabajo hecho valga la pena y guste a la comunidad, han sido 4 meses de arduo trabajo. A ver que os parece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
