ActiveSky on computer without internet connection

Featured Replies

I'm considering buying ActiveSky, but my FS computer doesn't have an internet connection.I've searched the forum but I haven't been able to find anything that says whether ActiveSky will work on a system without internet access.I'm currently downloading metars from IVAO and loading the weather into FS via FSMetar from the saved metar file. Even if ActiveSky worked on my system in offline mode, would it provide any significant improvement over FSMetar, given the inability to provide real-time updates?Phil Wright

Hi Phil,Thanks for your interest! If you have a computer with Internet you can install AS, download our weather files and transfer them to your FS computer, where you will also have AS installed. Only one purchase is required.You will still get all the benefits of Active Sky, Active Sky Graphics, and Active Radar. I would say that it would be a big switch from FSMetar.Thanks,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://www.fseconomy.com/
