As I understand it, I need to launch ActiveSky prior to launching FS9. Then I need to set my plane position and click the "refresh" button on the ActiveSky interface screen. The problem is, that screen disappears when FS9 is launched. I have to press Escape in order to access ActiveSky again. This, of course, puts FS into a Pause mode.Am I missing something? How is the best way to access ActiveSky with FS9 running?Thanks.

I always have FS9 running fisrt in windowed mode and clear all weather through the FSUIPC module.Then I start AS and let it do its thing... I don,t have any probs doing it this way around.Stu

I use FSAutostart to first run ActiveSky and then FS9. I don't click refresh but just wait a minute or two for the weather to automatically update itself.

Thank you for the response. I'll give it a try.

Ok. I'll try that. THanks!
