Hi,An update: I downloaded the exact weather file and gave it a try. I must say I got nothing like your shots. I got a solid OVC and no blue sky. I flew around a bit and all stayed as it should. There has got to be something else going on here.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6...development.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-proud.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-beta.jpg

Jim- I agree, something else must be going on. I think this must fall back to an FS9 problem. We discussed this when ASV came out. Last night I started fs9 all by itself, cleared all weather, then using the FS9 advanced weather menu, set a 600 foot AGL, 3000 foot thick solid stratus OVC at KALB (and the world I think). It looked great from the ground, nice solid low layer, as I climbed through 600 AGL got into wispy thin looking stratus and could see the ground and forward 5-10 miles, vis was 10 miles, till I got to 3600 feet, just above the layer, then I couldn't see the ground through a solid stratus looking OVC. As I descended back through, as I got to about 3000 in the layer ground again visible. Turned vis down to 2 miles then better but could still see the ground straight down. Is there a way somehow to have ASv6 automatically drop vis to about 1/2 mile when entering 7/8 BKN or OVC conditions to simulate the near 0 vis in these conditions, then have it better above and below the layer? Just a thought. Thanks again. Also, I had FSInn weather turned off. Just used VATSIM weather with updates through the ASv6 interface.

Hi,But I can use the exact same weather file and get OVC as it should be shown. If it was an FS9 problem then I would see it too. That is what is strange to me. We are using the same weather and seeing different results.Sometimes it is the FS9 visibility issue. Gosh, we hope that is being worked on for FSX. After the wind shifts when FS9 was first released, this has got to be the issue we have spent the most time on.Don't judge by the straight down view. I have concluded that because of the way clouds need to rotate under your plane this will usually happen. I have been above the thickest of OVC and looked straight down and still seen the ground.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6...development.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-proud.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-beta.jpg
