Clouds for FSX

A while ago someone put up a site for FSX clouds. It was in Spanish and tried as I may, I could never figger out what thing to hit to download it.
Can somebody lead me to the site and what thing I should push to download these clouds. From what I see they're pretty spectacular.

FS2004 HDE - High Definition Environment. High definition and photorealistic texture pack that will change the aspect of your clouds (cumulus, stratus, cirrus), sky color, aircraft reflections and ground detail. By Pablo Diaz.[/SIZE]

Yes they do, but you can only use the cloud textures, not the rest of the pack.

I use them myself, the 512x512 and they actually improved my frames.
 
Actually, you can only use the cumulus textures. The stratus ones made FSX stop working for me.
 
Wow im getting some serious frame rate fluid gain from using these clouds in Dx9. Any issues reported using Dx10 by chance?

- Edit: Oh, wait...it was the *sky textures* that made my FSX go down in flames!

Ah yes indeed, the sky textures are totally incompatible (to my great despair).
Generally speaking, any FS9 cloud texture is compatible with FSX, but FS9 sky textures/colors are not. For example, before using this HDE package I was using FS SkyWorld 2004 clouds in my FSX. I wanted to use FS SkyWorld 2004 dawn&dusk sky textures too, but it was impossible :blind:
