Understanding how the weather works

Featured Replies

I have a very general question about how the weather works in FS9, and if I'm setting it up correctly.I just installed FS9, FSUIPC, and GE Pro. I'm currently using the default weather, which is fine for now and actually doesn't look that bad. My very general question is how do these 3 work together to control the weather? More specifically, how does GE Pro affect the weather? Is it considered an external weather controller? When I set it up, it developed several ground and SKY texture sets. What does this do? I didn't fully understand the manual.How does FSUIPC play into all of this and does it have any impact on GE Pro?Thanks.

Regards,

Todd Harrell

Hi,There is no connection between FSUIPC and GEP. In fact, GEP doesn't even require FSUIPC.Next, GEP does not affect the weather at all. GEP just puts textures into FS. The texture sets are generated to match up with weather. What you should do is figure out the weather, submit a texture set and then start FS.
