June 14, 200421 yr I have no clue whats wrong... Just updated to the beta release and this starts happening...I'm also still getting invalid when I start in the Quantico area...Additionally with the update my framerates went in the crapper compared to what it used to be.
June 14, 200421 yr Hi Peter,There are times that if a station does not generate a METAR or the data is invalid that this message will be shown and the next closest station will be used and shown.As far as your FPS it could be a settings change, bad video driver, bad Dx9. If using XP have you tried a restore point?Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
June 15, 200421 yr So why wouldn't it be KRIC or KIAD or KDCA or KHEF or KOMH or KBWI; need I go on? You mean to tell me that from quantico the next closest working station could be 161.1 nautical miles away???Framerate issue was solved inadvertantly changed a setting.
June 15, 200421 yr I meant the invalid message -:(I just went to KNYG and in AS got:KNYG 150055Z 21007KT 7SM BKN120 26/23 A3000 RMK SLP160 T02610228I did a custom station report and got:KNYG 150055Z 21007KT 7SM BKN120 26/23 A3000 RMK SLP160 T02610228KDCA 142329Z 150024 20010KT P6SM FEW026 SCT150 BKN250 TEMPO 0104 24015G25KT 3SM TSRA BKN030CB FM0400 21006KT P6SM SCT040 TEMPO 0812 23005KT 3SM BR SCT010 FM1700 22007KT P6SM BKN060 TEMPO 2024 5SM TSRA BKN040CBFL030: 228/11 (23.5) FL060: 247/21 (16.8) FL090: 253/24 (13.5)FL120: 253/20 (3.2) FL180: 265/35 (-7.6) FL240: 261/43 (-17.8)FL300: 264/48 (-24.4) FL340: 271/65 (-42.3) FL390: 270/59 (-53.8)Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
June 15, 200421 yr LOL, Understood about the Invalid.Why would I be getting a station in Pennsyvania, in southern Virginia?That is my main gripe.
June 15, 200421 yr Maybe I am mis-understanding something here. It wouldn't be the first time! In FS/World/Airports I typed in the city box Quantico. FS placed me at KNYG and AS gave me the METAR for KNYG. Maybe a written description would help me more. I am not real familiar with the smaller airports of that area of the USA. Just trying to understand your problem better!It doesn't help that I am going on 4.5 hours of sleep. I was watching my DEEEEEEETROIT Pistons beat up those L.A. Losers last night. I should wait until tomorrow when my brain is functioning a little better.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
June 15, 200421 yr Ahahahahha, Basketball... your devoting your time to BBALL... Jim come on now :) Let me be specificIf you look at the two screen shots in the original message. You'll see that I'm 4 NM from KRMN but am recieving KFIG all the way in PA. Bear in mind there are about 10 stations much closer. I thought that was a serious hiccup and will try to reproduce it...
June 15, 200421 yr Yes, please do so and post your results.Go Pistons!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
