Climbing through thick overcast ???

[Guest]

Damian, first off great program, am really glad I made the invesment.Only thing iv'e found thats bugged me is I took off from Schiphol earlier in a thick overcast, almost zero vis. This was with me all the way up to about 27000ft, and then it totally disappeared. I could see everything around and below me. Is that normal. ?http://freespace.virgin.net/philip.jeff/BAVBanner.gif

Hi Phil,A certain version of ADVDISP has been known to cause this problem (due to FSUIPC communications issues), if you are using ADVDISP and/or RC3 you can try upgrading this (www.schiratti.com/dowson.html). There was also another problem found with certain TAF reports that could cause this, fixed and ready for the new build..Thanks!-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/wxrebeta.jpg][/td][/tr][/table://http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/ima...][/tr][/table

PSJust as an afterthought. I don't have an always on internet connection, and if Activesky is set for online mode when I start it up, and not connected to the net, it crashes out with a runtime error.Actually it doesn't even start, it just shows an error box.
