Active Sky Advanced Question?

Featured Replies

Presently for my weather I use FSMeteo for FS9 and the FSX default weather for FSX. In the past I also used Cris Clouds in FS9 but since my curent upgrade to an i7 975 CPU and 64 bit system did not reinstall them. I have debated upgrading to Active Sky for years but have really never been too picky or critical relative to clouds so I have procrastinated (Something I am very good at). However, particularly with my new system one item does bug me. My home area is in West Virginia and particularly during this time of year there are a multitude of low level clouds hanging in between the mountains. The thing I don't like is that under these conditions, the clouds below make it look like the dead of winter and everything is covered with snow.Would Active Sky Advanced significantly improve this image? A second question would be is there any problem with Active Sky on a Windows XP Pro 64 bit system?Thanks:RTH

First answer YES! Difference between Active Sky and default weather engine is like, Cesna and A380.Second answer NO.
