  1. SkypaintXP For X-Plane 11.51 V.

    By DS1971

    This is a stand-alone xVision 2.0 solution that is compatible with X-Plane 11.51 R1 or higher. THIS PRESET IS ONLY FOR X-PLANE 11 VULKAN. IT DOES NOT WORK WELL IN OPEN GL
    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
    NOTE: A visual installation zip file is included separately in the download section
     Save the .xvs version file of your choosing from this download to your xVision 2.0 folder Open your xVision Run the Restore from Backup function from the side menu In the pop up window, make sure options "Restore initial Lua scripts to FlyWithLua Plugin" and "Restore initial graphic resources" are checked off Click on the Open solution button on the side menu and chose Skypaint_XP_vX.X.xvs (which you saved in 1)  Click on the "Apply adjustment and install resources" icon on the side menu Wait until xVision gives you the message that the solution has been installed (bottom of the xVision window in the Program Log tab) AFTER INSTALLATION:
    This solution installs its resources and scripts in exclusive mode. This means that any lua scripts in your X-Plane 11/resources/plugins/FlyWithLua/scripts folder will be disabled. Before enabling any scripts, please make sure they don't conflict with the lua scripts this solution uses. That is, keep any cloud, sky, lights and water lua scripts disabled or delete them altogether.
    INCOMPATIBILITIES - KNOWN ISSUES
    Although the solution has been tested extensively, it is impossible to be aware of all incompatibilities with other addons for the simple reason that I may not own some of them. Under this heading, I will list all incompatibilities and issues as they come to my attention by users or as I discover them in my own sim:
    Users of 3jFPS-Wizzard: Skypaint_Tweaks.lua contains dataref "sim/private/controls/clouds/overdraw_control". The same dataref is also used in 3jFPS-Wizard's lua. Please, delete this dataref from SkypaintXP_Tweaks lua. Users of the ASHA script: This solution manipulates shadows (cloud as well as general sim shadows). If you are using the ASHA lua script, you either delete it or delete the shadow dataref sections of this solution's Skypaint_Tweaks.lua SUPPORT:
    I will stand behind this solution and offer help and support for any issues related to bad or subpar functionality (faulty lua scripts, errors etc.). Please, DO NOT message me or comment on requests to change visuals in this solution. I went to great lengths to ensure that the solution will provide reasonable results for a wide range of systems and situations. As it is always the case with visual enhancements, one person's trash is another person's treasure. Please accept this solution as is and, if it does not meet your preferences, use it as a basis and do your own tweaks as you see fit. I will not respond to any requests for changes regarding the way things look in the sim.
    USAGE:
    How you use this solution and who you chose to share it with is not my business to say. Feel free to alter, re-use and tweak it to your discretion and liking.
    CREDITS:
    The solution utilizes the following 3-party resources:
    The amazing Eddie Sky Pack skycolor textures: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/37325-eddieskypack-for-xp11-esp-xp11-b085/ Alan Revier's great water lua script: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/51899-lua-script-for-water-enhancement/ Airfighter's super-handy lights script: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/65793-itx-d-lights-controls/ ChinNoobonic's outstanding xVisibility lua script: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/46845-x-visibility-dynamic-haze-control/ Credit is also due to Ves and his legendary solution for supplying the basis for the tweaks in SkypaintXP's shaders Active Sky XP's High Performance Cloud Textures My goal is to make this solution work for everyone, so any reviews and/or feedback comments are always welcomed and appreciated.
    Happy flying!

  2. xVision 2.0 Solution Companion For Ultra Weather XP

    By DS1971

    Hello fellow simmers,
    This is just a small xVision 2.0 solution that enhances certain visual aspects of X Plane where Ultra Weather XP v 2.6.2.4 does not provide any processing . It is intended to be used only with UWXP. No other pluggins where tested (Skymaxx Pro, xEnviro etc) so I can't guarantee compatibility.
    I have also included my Ultra Weather XP settings that work best for my sim and system. Your mileage may vary.
    The shaders were chosen so that they don't conflict with UWXP's rendering/post-processing. However, use of this solution  is done at your own risk. Please, keep in mind that usage of this solution in conjunction with UWXP voids support for  UWXP as clearly stated in the developer's  user's manual.
    Having said the above this solution was tested extensively on X Plane 11.51 r1 Vulkan with no adverse effects or incompatibility issues with UWXP. I am not sure if it also works in Open GL mode of 11.51 r1 as I am only using the Vulkan mode for wich UWXP v 2.6.2.4 was developed and optimized.
    What does this solution offer is:
    Vegetation shade enhancements Slightly increased PBR effect Wider and brighter sun water reflections Day/Night raindrop brightness and rendering adjustments Post processing tweaks regarding slightly increased contrast, based on luma exponential curves Brighter and less opaque jet contrails Installation Instructions:
    Follow the standard xVision solution installation procedure:
     Save the .xvs file from this download to your xVision 2.0 folder Open your xVision Run the Restore from Backup function from the side menu Click on the Open solution button on the side menu and chose XV_UWXP_Companion.xvs (which you saved in 1)  Click on the "Apply adjustment and install resources" icon on the side menu Wait untl xVision gives you the message that the solution has been installed (bottom of the xVision window in the Program Log tab) Happy flying!

  4. Enhanced Cloudscapes

    By BiologicalNanobot

    Hello,
    I have been working on a volumetric cloud replacement for X-Plane 11 since last two-three months, and finally managed to get visually appealing results. The plugin is not a weather engine, and it only replaces default X-Plane 11 clouds with volumetric ones, therefore it should be compatible with weather injection plugins like Active Sky XP. Currently it supports X-Plane 11.50+ and 2 major operating systems - Windows and Linux. It is an open source freeware, and finally in beta phase!
    The package includes both Enhanced Cloudscapes Controller and FSEnhancer's sky colors. I'm really thankful to enricodelbono for allowing FSEnhancer's art assets and RandomUser for Enhanced Cloudscapes Controller to be included with the release package.
    You can check out the club page for feedback and support:

  5. 11.50 Vulkan ves tweaked preset - no xvision required

    By Janis

    Hello 🙂 
    with permission from Ves the creator of the xvision preset . I have modified the assets to be used without xvision and are fully compatible with 11.50 vulkan.

    Installation:
    Copy the resource folder into your x-plane folder, click yes to overwrite. Maybe make a backup first of your cloud and skycolor folder if you want to revert.

    I can also recommend to use this in combination with the x-visibility script. Which also seems to work fine in 11.50 vulkan.

    I hope you enjoy it 🙂

  6. Cloud Art

    By Sp33dM

    CLOUD ART
    This "replace-on" will replace the textures of clouds and sky colors. It will also tweak the lighting and environment of X-plane to compliment the clouds. FPS has minimal impact on "Fast" versions.
    CHOOSE BETWEEN FAST OR STANDARD DOWNLOAD: "Fast" focuses on performance while keeping some visual quality from the standard download. The standard download was used to render the provided screenshots
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    COMPATIBILITY
    INCOMPATIBLE WITH XP10, FSENHANCER, XENVIRO, UWXP, AND SKYMAXX PRO.
    NOT OPTIMIZED FOR XVISION OR OTHER POST PROCESSING SOFTWARE
    NOT TESTED IN VR
    VULKAN READY
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    INSTALLATION 
    Delete CA.lua and DA.lua if you have older version installed
    Instructions are included in the download.

  7. X-Visibility - Dynamic Haze Control

    By JordanChin

    Donation:
    If you would like to support me, you can always get me a coffee.
    https://www.paypal.me/JordanAChin

    For XP 11.25+
     
    This script provides dynamic haze/fog control based on reported visibility, providing smooth visibility transitions throughout all phases of flight. This means no "infinite" visibility the higher you get, no abrupt visibility changes and a realistic looking atmosphere based on reported visibility for the area.
     
    Features:

    * Smooth visibility transitions during all phases of flight
    * No white out/grey out/blue out when passing through clouds or at night (My older "No White Out In Clouds" script is no longer needed)
    * No more infinite visibility
    * More challenge in IMC conditions
    * Works with default weather (manual and real weather)
     
    Compatibility:
    * Not compatible with X-Enviro
    * Not tested with Ultra weather, disabling the haze options in that plugin should get it working with X-Visibilty theoretically
    * FSE v0.5 uses the older gradual visibility script in the TrueHaze.lua file. Remove all text below (or remove lines 122-288) --TRUEHAZE INTERNAL PARAMETERS and this script should work fine with FSE
    * If you are using the "No White Out In Clouds" script, please remove it as it is no longer needed
    Installation:
    This script was tested on X-Plane 11.25, and it requires the flyWithLua NG plugin available at:
    https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/38445-flywithlua-ng-next-generation-edition-for-x-plane-11-win-lin-mac/
    To install, place X-Visibility.lua in the following folder:
    <X-Plane installation path>\Resources\plugins\FlyWithLua\Scripts\
     
    Usage:
    There is no interface but it is possible to change some parameters of this script with the following lines:
     
    local plugin_on = true --enable plugin
    local debug_info = false --show debug info
    local atmoTop_visibility = 30480 --elevation to apply the max visibility, default is 30480 m
    local minFog_value = 0.6 --minimum fog value between 0.0-1.0, default is 0.6
    local atmoTop_Fog = 1.5 --fog value after passing atmoTop_visibility
    local highAltFogMult = 1 --reduce to 0.5 or 0.25 if you feel the haze at higher altitudes is too strong, default is 1
    Acknowledgements:
    Thanks to @SNowblind7 for his help testing this script and for his initial work in the gradualVisibility script from which this is built upon.

  9. Real XP X-Vision preset v1.0

    By Lufthansa2000

    Hi folks !
    Here is my X-Vision preset 🙂 !
    It adds "warm light" , realistic cloud contrast, rain fix and some more fixes...
    It also fixes the graphic bug, where the sun was "glowing" through the clouds during sunset (which was too bright).
    My Reshade config is highly recommended !
     
    X-Visibility is highly recommended !
     
    For clouds textures I use ASXP clouds.
    Cheers !
    The download in x-plane.org is also from me 😉
