FSUIPC Clouds Layer Control

Featured Replies

Hi again ActiveSky user's i read the readme file for FSUIPC but i was wondering am using fsw skyworld se v2.3 but in the readme it only mentions Add Random Turbulence and Icing in clouds - This makes IMC more fun and realistic. but how about the layer control options how sould i have set up for the best weather?? thanks

Hello,This VSKY cloud layer should be above 40,000ft as to not interfere with other ActiveSky-generated cloud layers. Add random cirrus is another good option to help blend the two sky colors.-Damian[table border=0" cellspacing="30" cellpadding="0][tr][td align = "left"]Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation SoftwareDeveloper of ActiveSkyThe next-generation weather environment simulation for FS2002!http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky[/td][td]http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxresmallbanner.jpg][/td][/tr][/table://http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/ima...][/tr][/table

Also, due to the nature of METAR processing of multiple cloud layers, you should not use VSKY if you want all the cloud layers be displayed according to METAR (there isn't enough room and each add-on competes for cloud layers). It is probably a good idea to use VSKY only during fair weather with few clouds reported.[table border=0" cellspacing="30" cellpadding="0][tr][td align = "left"]Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation SoftwareDeveloper of ActiveSkyThe next-generation weather environment simulation for FS2002!http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky[/td][td]http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxresmallbanner.jpg][/td][/tr][/table://http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/ima...][/tr][/table
