I have noticed this behavior before, and I want to know if it is some config problem I have, or if it is something else...(See Attached Pics, taken seconds apart)The visibility appeared to be "flashing" back and forth between a long way (30 nm) and low vis (5 nm). I do have TAF processing enabled. This was using a wx file downloaded 7-13-06 at about 23:00 GMT. It featured TAF's with -TSRA (thunderstorms) predicted over the area I was flying (SW Missouri USA), and I got them. But I also got rapid fire visibility changes. What caused this?It did this whether I had visibility smoothing enabled or not.Rhett

Hi Mace,Your visibility value jumped from greater than 10 to less than 10 and FS04 will not smooth out this change much. You also entered the visibility effect clouds.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://dot.kelder.net:8080/fseconomy/

It went from less than 10 to more than 10 many many times in succession, not just once. So you are saying this is an oddball situation? I have rarely seen it, but I have seen it happen once or twice before. Is there anything I can do about it?Rhett

Hi,Was this during level flight?About what altitude?You can try with Use FS9 Haze checked On.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://dot.kelder.net:8080/fseconomy/

It was during level flight at 5500 MSL.One thing I noticed: I saved the flight right after I took those screenshots. When I re-loaded the flight tonight, using the same wx, the flashing visibility was gone, replaced by a mess of storms all around me. Dynamic weather?Is this a TAF thing? This might be normal behavior for all I know, flying in and out of a cloud. I'm not sure if it should rapidly change back and forth though.Rhett

Hi,Yes that is the level, around 5000. The conditions could be the TAF being used.Try things with FS9 Haze On.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://dot.kelder.net:8080/fseconomy/

It doesn't seem to be doing it with FS9 haze on.Rhett

Hi Mace,So there is your work around!!Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://dot.kelder.net:8080/fseconomy/
