Resilient coloring (NEW in Advanced Edition
Set It and Forget It!
Year-round, precise global foliage color changes that automatically display foliage and terrain coloring based on date & location. Watch colors change weekly across 4 seasons. As autumn colors change in the northern hemisphere, spring is displayed in Australia, New Zealand, and southern parts of South America. Ground coloring changes during autumn and winter in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Iceland. More world regions to be added!
Terrain Coloring Now Included!
Enjoy more natural-looking vistas! Terrain Coloring can be automated or user-controlled and currently applies to the United States, Canada, Europe, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Iceland. More regions to be added!
Weather Scenarios Now Included!
In perfect harmony with the vegetation and terrain features, you can now choose from a wide array of season-oriented weather presets, totaling over 38 options. Each preset is a carefully crafted masterpiece, capturing the unique charm and challenges of the climate during that time.
Resilient Coloring
This new user-controlled feature keeps vegetation coloring consistent when the ground texture is too light in color, or the underlying ground image contains unnatural coloring. Resilient Coloring avoids vegetation fading or discoloring.
2 New Enhanced Regions; Aspen trees in Colorado and Larch trees in NW USA and SW Canada
Aspen trees, which turn yellow in the autumn, create stunning landscapes along with a backdrop of green conifers. These landscapes can be seen around many areas in Colorado including Aspen, Telluride, Steamboat Springs, Breckenridge, and many others. Larch trees, which are conifers that display yellow and orange hues during autumn can be found in the Cascade Mountains of Washington, in northern areas of Idaho and Montana, as well as in the mountains of southern British Columbia.
Lower Vegetation Density for Cities and Towns
This new innovative user-controlled feature introduces a significant enhancement to the visual aesthetics of cities and towns, creating a more harmonious and natural appearance.
The NEW Advanced Edition Further Enhances Selectable Vegetation Color Tones
We have successfully further enhanced vegetation color tones to present deeper warm tones and cooler cool tones. These subtle differences make a huge impact in-sim! Select the overall color tone that looks best to you, cool, warm, or neutral.
A Multitude of Vegetation Presets
Opt for manual mode with 25 realistic seasonal presets if you prefer. Every season has several unique presets.
Manage Your Seasons and Customization with a Unique, Simple, and Clean App
The automation window empowers users to schedule the application, enabling it to automatically install seasonal presets for both vegetation and terrain coloring. This intelligent feature operates in sync with the current date and time of the year, ensuring that your virtual environment continually reflects the evolving natural world. Let AccuSeason handle it all!
Global Seasons
Seasons span the globe, showcasing a striking dichotomy between the northern and southern hemispheres. Imagine departing from New York during autumn and landing in Buenos Aires, where spring’s lush vegetation awaits your arrival. Alternatively, venture from Sydney during Australia’s winter and touch down in Seattle, greeted by the vibrant greenery of summer!
Enhanced Content
Easily access specialized regional enhancements via the REX cloud as they become available. . . without the need to update the application!
Many Global Areas Updated for Accurate Vegetation Representation
New biomes have been created to depict steppe, tundra, Australian scrublands, New Zealand vegetation, and different conifer regions. Iceland’s conifer trees were replaced with suitable vegetation. A large central part of the United States now features deciduous trees, not conifer forests. Palm trees added to many cities where there were none.
Winter Deciduous Trees
Deciduous winter trees appear for all areas where the simulator depicts deciduous trees and the winter season applies. These trees show significantly less leaves and look great in winter landscapes with or without snow.
Selectable Deciduous Tree Canopy
In addition to the default rounded canopy, you can opt for an irregular-shaped canopy for deciduous trees. This unique canopy design adds a delightful touch, enhancing the diversity of shapes among deciduous trees. Furthermore, it often results in greater color variation within the tree, enhancing the overall depth and richness of its colors.
Tree Height Adjustment
3 options are available for tree height: short, medium, and tall. Additionally, some trees have been properly sized in the app to reflect more realistic proportions, such as the massively sized default trees that are displayed in Sydney Australia.

Features
Direct MSFS Integration
Using a combination of techniques for weather lookup and control, ASFS integrates directly with MSFS 2020 and MSFS2024.
ASFS Preset weather and Passive weather depiction modes
Using Preset weather depiction from ASFS or Passive weather depiction (from MSFS live weather), a variety of weather visuals and depiction methods, offering various levels of realism, control and visual quality are available depending on your needs. Transition control and configurable smoothing is also provided in ASFS Preset mode.
Active Air Effects
Customizable clear air turbulence, thermals, drafts and wake turbulence effects work in tandem with existing MSFS effects to provide and enhance realism. Air effects are provided in any depiction mode.
New: Cloud turbulence with in-cloud detection
Cloud Turbulence
Cloud turbulence is now fully implemented and works in both preset and passive modes.
Advanced Historical Weather
In addition to including Live and Custom weather modes, we also offer Historical mode with comprehensive global weather data in hourly archives. Dynamic historical playback provides realistic changing weather as per the archived historical timeline. Optionally lock the historical time to your configured simulator time for easy date/time synchronization and control through MSFS.
