Hello, the new Sky Tools Free V 1.21 See more Infos about this Tools Here in English: And here in German: Greets Heinz

Aerosoft Sky Tools Free (works on Windows, MAC and Linux) is a sky enhancement tool that allows the user to change the way the sky, clouds, sun and moon looks in X-Plane 10. It basically allows the user to tweak the sky to match the conditions. There is after all a big difference between the sky on a hot humid August day and a clear frosty January day. Sky Tools was developed by AWG Simulations as a commercial product but we decided to buy the full rights from them and to send it out as a free gift to the X-Plane users.

Hi, first, thx for this great cloud addon, which is better as SkyMaxxPro IMHO. The only drawback of your addon is the still existing "Grey of Death" Fadeout. is there any chance, that you will remove this too? Greetings Michael

Hi guys, not sure if what I am asking sounds reasonable but would it possible that the future releases of Sky Tools would use real-time weather and would generate clouds and choose the theme automatically (i.e. Active Sky for FSX)? Is that on your road map? Keep up the good work! Thanks!
