May 11, 200818 yr Commercial Member Hello,Which time zone are you in, and are you using online or offline weather? Are you forcing to sim time? Please let us know some more details. Thanks! Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation Technologies
May 11, 200818 yr Author Hi Damian,Like I said I get this message popping up frequently when I force to sim time. I leave ASX set on GMT and always use online weather.
May 11, 200818 yr Hi David,What do you have your sim time set to in FSX? Is it set to use System time?Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
May 11, 200818 yr Author Just a wee question before I test... would ASX show this message if the time and date was set to tomorrow?If so could this not be set to use real-time instead of showing this pop-up message every 5 mins? ;)Just off to test...
May 11, 200818 yr Commercial Member While forcing sim time ASX will use whatever the sim is reporting. If the sim is set to tomorrow, ASX will throw the error as there is no weather to download for tomorrow. The ASX time system is always dynamic based on the active time in use, so that you can simply set the time to a previous date and experience properly changing wx based on the initial active time.In your case it sounds like you should be using force to real time, not sim time, so that ASX always uses current real time (latest) wx downloads regardless of what your sim time is set to.Best, Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation Technologies
