February 2, 200521 yr Hi thereThere's a bit of a discussion going on over at VATSIM about ActiveSky 2004, WxRE & VATSIM.So I thought I'd ask the experts. When I'm flying online with Squawkbox 2.3 and WxRE on 2K2, should, or shouldn't I have TAF processing turned on?Looking forward to a Yes or No from the makers of one of my favourite add-ons!Regards all!http://online.vatsimindicators.net/916312/3.png Gavin Barbara Over 10 years here and AVSIM is still my favourite FS site :-)
February 2, 200521 yr Hi Gavin,Go over and report for any version:1. You must be in Online Mode.2. VATSIM weather is for the departing and destination airports only, but the TAF setting will not affect this weather.3. TAFs should be On.Feel free to report back and/or point users to this thread!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
