Introducing "Real Effects Plus" - The ultimate effects package for both inside and outside of the cockpit. Effects that compliment any style of simmer, Real Effects Plus is sure to impress. There are no "On/Off" effects, each effect has been programmed with many different variables that cause a reaction under varying aerodynamic and atmospheric conditions. Created by a real pilot that has over 2,000 hours in multiengine jet aircraft, this add-on draws from real-world aviation experience.
Cockpit Effects:
-Saint Elmo's Fire (Windscreen Static): Replicating the dangers of flying near thunderstorms, this beautiful display of static electricity flashing on your cockpit windows is a sight to be seen.
-Windscreen Bug Splatter: Yes, we did! Why bug splatter? Because bug splatter is a real, and real pilots have to squint through a dirty windscreen every time they fly. Ever tried to see a narrow runway with the setting sun blasting the bug smashed windscreen? Go ahead, airplanes are nicknamed "Bug Smashers" for good reason. Flying insects are most active in warm temperatures around sunset, you'll certainly see more bug splatter on your windscreen then.
Engine Effects:
-Engine Intake Vortices: Reactive to engine power, humidity, airspeed, temperature, air density, and surface moisture. When the conditions are right, these miniature tornados are spectacular to watch as they pour into the engine.
-Engine Strake Vortices : Reactive to aircraft pitch, humidity, airspeed, temperature, air density, and altitude. This unique aerodynamic visualization showcases the airflow up and over the aircraft engine strake.
-Engine Intake Condensation: Reactive to engine power, humidity, airspeed, temperature, air density, and altitude.
-Jet Blast: Reactive to your engine speed. Jet engines are powerful, contaminated surfaces (water and snow) bring this power to light.
-Reverse Thrust: On a wet or snowy runway, watch as thrust is rapidly switched directions when your engine enters reverse thrust.
-Engine Fires: Set through your MSFS Aircraft Failure Customization menu. When is the last time you had to land single engine?
-Contrails: Out with the old, in with the new. Say goodbye to the default contrails. Our contrails depict the rotating wake turbulence behind an aircraft, and they look great.
-Engine and APU Startup Smoke: Jet engine starts nearly always produce smoke during startup. Excess fuel is sprayed into the engine during the ignition stage, and it comes out of the exhaust as smoke.
-Engine and APU Cold Starts: When the environment is cold enough, aircraft require cold weather startup procedures to prevent engine damage. Marvel at your engine and APU startup exhaust with this effect.
Airframe Effects:
-Wing Condensation: Reactive to aircraft pitch, humidity, airspeed, temperature, air density, and altitude. High pressure below the wing to the low pressure above the wing is visually stunning when the conditions are right.
-Flap Trailing Vortices: Reactive to flap angle, aircraft pitch, humidity, airspeed, temperature, air density, and altitude. No, this is not a fuel leak, it is aerodynamics at work. These trails of moisture look even better from an aircraft cabin window.
-Brake Smoke: If your brakes are smoking, you've got hot brakes. A heavy aircraft, hard braking, and hot temperatures will cause this.
-Volumetric Landing Lights: Too dark to see if you're in a cloud while flying? Turn on your landing lights. If you see your light beams illuminating the cloud, you've found your answer. Real pilots do this routinely, especially when concerned about icing. Default MSFS landing lights will not do this, but our effect will.
-Tail Strike, Wingtip Strike, Engine Nacelle Strike: Gusty crosswinds are a recipe for a wingtip or nacelle strike. Watch your landing attitude, don't strike the tail! A plane spotter will see the effects of your aluminum scraping, thanks to this effect.
-Fuel Vent Dripping: Airplane fuel systems all have vents. Warm temperature causes fuel to expand. If your fuel tanks are full and they warm up in the heat, fuel is going overboard. There's plenty of airport ramp stains to prove this. This effect does this, though it does not come with a fuel spill cleanup kit.

Options for Taxiway Markings and Runway Rubber Buildup
Flight simulation aficionados enjoy options, and we do too! So we developed 2 completely different styles for all taxiway markings and runway rubber buildup
FPS-Friendly
We understand frame rates are very important to you, so we carefully developed this add-on with that in mind. Hence you will not experience frame rate issues vs. default.
REX + Freeware Airports
The majority of freeware airports, (such as the ones from flightsim. to) will take advantage of our diverse texture library, giving a more realistic appearance to these awesome creations.
Safe and Easy Installation
For convenience and to protect your MSFS installation integrity, we created this package to take advantage of the community folder integration. No-fuss installation and/or removal. Simply install and fly!

Real Turbulence System
Real-Turbulence-System — Hear turbulence sound engine
THE ATMOSPHERIC ENGINE
Wind-Linked Detection, Not Flight-Control Noise: Real Turbulence reads live ambient wind shear, aircraft wind on the airframe, cloud and terrain context, and MSFS turbulence data — not body-relative wind that spikes when you pitch or bank. Encounters follow the atmosphere, not your stick inputs.

THE ATMOSPHERIC ENGINE
Wind-Linked Detection, Not Flight-Control Noise: Real Turbulence reads live ambient wind shear, aircraft wind on the airframe, cloud and terrain context, and MSFS turbulence data — not body-relative wind that spikes when you pitch or bank. Encounters follow the atmosphere, not your stick inputs.
Felt Stress & Atmospheric TI: Two separate metrics show what the sky is doing versus what the cabin actually feels. Atmospheric Intensity tracks environmental turbulence; Felt Stress (0–100%) builds only when real wind disturbance is present and pilot maneuver dampening is not active.
Intelligent Air Mass Analysis: Beyond a single wind read, the engine evaluates 3D shear, aircraft wind deltas, cloud density, terrain, and altitude to classify what you are flying through:
- Convective (In-Cloud): Updrafts and downdrafts when penetrating storm cells.
- Orographic (Mountain Wave): Mechanical turbulence and rotors over rugged terrain.
- Clear Air Turbulence (CAT): Sudden jolts in strong winds aloft.
- Gust Factor: Short spikes above a 10-second wind baseline register as gusts without permanent false alarms.
Ground Kill-Switch: On the ground and at low altitude above the runway, encounters stay suppressed — no turbulence alerts while taxiing.
DYNAMIC ACOUSTIC STRESS
Powered by a thread-safe, severity-aware audio engine — not a single static loop at one volume.
Multi-Layer Crossfading: Structural layers blend with normalized gain so combined volume stays controlled; random loop start points reduce repetitive “seam” artifacts.
Smoother, Severity-Aware Playback: Per-block gain smoothing, quiet Light chop, louder Moderate and Severe bands, and ~1. 5 s fade-out when an encounter ends instead of an instant cut.
Real-Time Low-Pass Filtering: Light turbulence stays muffled and deep in the airframe; severe encounters open the filter for sharper structural thumps.
Calm Air, True Silence: When Atmospheric TI and Felt Stress sit in the Smooth band, the cabin stays silent — no background hiss in dead calm.
ENGINEERING TELEMETRY DASHBOARD
RTS ships with a cockpit UI built for the 1. 1. 0 physics model.
Split Turbulence Metrics: Monitor Atmospheric TI (environment) and Felt Stress (wind-linked cabin disturbance) side by side, with wind and rotation readouts and severity color bands (Smooth → Light → Moderate → Severe).
Physics Signature Chart: Live traces separate Rotational motion, A/C Wind delta, and Air Mass shear so you can see which signal is driving the encounter.
Aircraft Characteristics Panel: Rotational stress, live aircraft wind stress, and a Maneuver Dampening badge when pilot-input suppression is active.
Encounter Status: Clear LIGHT / MODERATE / SEVERE labels with hysteresis and cooldown for stable on/off behavior — plus meteorological context for what you are flying through.
Compatibility: MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024. Works with default aircraft and high-end third-party addons. SimConnect telemetry is requested efficiently once per subscription for stable, low-overhead updates.
