I just got FSMeteo 6.01, and it works !

[asquel 2]

Hi,3 days ago, I got the first version of FSMeteo (6.0), and it crashed after a few seconds downloading (on FS 2002 : I still eagerly wait for FS2004 here in France). I e-mailed Marc Philibert, giving him as much information as possible, and...This morning, I got a 6.01 version ; before going to work, I quickly checked the METAR and winds aloft downloading, and it was OK !I will verify more deeply all the functions this evening, but I wanted to point out the excellent support of Marc (besides the excellence of FSMeteo). I recently saw some negative comments about him, but we must be aware that he has now to manage : the transmission of his software to all customers by e-mail, the updating of his new FS2004-compatible version from multiple experiences, the answers to a huge number of e-mails, and apparently weather servers problems as well ! So, give him a couple of days, and I'm sure we can use his superb add-on again !Alain

Yeah... I unexpectedly got mine through the mail a couple of days ago and it works really well.I second your comments on excellent service and support.Si.

I agree to the support part but I still have (had yesterday) problems with FSM 6.01. Q: how do you get gradual rather than sudden weather changes?GreetingsS.

I've experienced 'instant' clouds on weather updates with FSMeteo 6.01 too, I wonder if there is a solution!

Hi - i have a feeling its not possible at the moment but i had a email from Marc on Sunday say he was bringing a new version out soon . Maybe that will fix it .Regards Rob

Hi. Could one of you owners please post a screen shot of WeatherSet.exe (provided w/FSUIPC) while FS04 and FSMeteo 6.1 are running?? I own FSMeteo 5.1 ( Only good with VATSIM WX ) and ActiveSkyRE 1.9. The FSMeteo provides many more layers of clouds, temps, winds etc... While ActiveSkyRE1.9 only gives me 1 layer of clouds or winds..BTW the flickering of the panel also occours w/ActiveSkyRE.. It might be FSUIPCs Advanced WX interface is doing it since FSMeteo 5.1 doesnot give me the flickers at all and runs the FS98 interface through FSUIPC.. Big HMMM ??? here.

Roman,Do you have "Render to Texture" turned off? AS does allow 3 layers of clouds, and as many wind and temp layers as NOAA reports. Maybe you have some settings wrong?Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Support

Yes Render to texture is off... Iam using WeatherSet.exe to see actually how many layers get sent to FSUIPC and nearly every time: One the first active sky load ( after clearing all weather ) it is fine. But,,, On any new weather update it reverts to 1 cloud layer and one wind layer.
