JS4100 Icing

[DRani 1]

Hi Guys,Theres a file called 'icev10.zip' by Charles Owen. I got it at flighsim.com, im not sure if its in the avsim libraries. It has some very interesting information on how icing works in FS. It is also a gauge that modifies these effects a little. If your really into icing effects you should check it out! :( Its for FS9 and FSX.David RanieriSydney,AU.

Unfortunately apart from modulating icing rate based on total temperature and real world physics we are in no position to cross-check whether said precipitation information is correct. There is no mechanism or SDK function or direct/indirect manner to do this. Incidentally this is why all WX radar information in FSX is a joke in terms of realism.

Guys from RealityXp does it with their WX500 Weather radar, and in a very realistic way...

All that can be said they in fact DO it but "very realistic' is a misnomer in application to weather in FSX.Anything that touches weather in FSX is pretty far removed from any realism - apart from realistic looking clouds provided you watch them at a distance.
