Preferred ActiveSky settings + themes

Featured Replies

I wanted to post my current Activesky settings to get a better understanding of the "most realistic" settings for the best possible depiction of weather. Is a log file or *.ini file in the ASV6 directory that I can post?Also, I am currently using Random All for my sky themes and other setting for ActiveSky Graphics for updates when FS closed.Per screenshots posted in another thread are those Random generated OR is their a preferred theme that is most popular?I have found a few times when I loaded FS that I liked the results (random) but a few I didn't care for as much.Thanks,

Hi,You can read over this post of mine:http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho..._id=24430&page=You can post your ASv6.ini file, which contains all your settings and I can tale a look.Honestly, can't say about the Themes. I would say that many use the wx Influenced feature. I use the All Randoms. Yes, that is what sometimes happens, some combinations look better than others.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development TeamActive Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter

Hi,I can make these suggestions:If you fly a lot "low and slow" reduce the Suppression Ceiling to 4000ForceLowestCeiling--OffForceDestinationWeatherZone--OffDepictFS9HazeLayer--OffTAFProcessing--OffWakeTurb--OnUpdateInterval--45 or 60Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development TeamActive Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter
