unflyable weather when using fsmeteo

Featured Replies

I am having great problems flying when i use fsmeteo to provide me with real world weather.Winds and barometric changes are just to sudden and the winds are way to strong, making flying impossable. I have the latest versions of fsmeteo and the FSUIPC module. I have tried setting up the fsuipc to control these changes better but, things are still may to sharp.Results include altitude changes or a few hundred feet, wind changing directions by almost 180 degrees and the wind speed gusting to high ammounts.Are these known problems, and is it possable to tame it down.

They are known issues thanks to the way FS9 implements the new local weather and at least 3 people involved in weather programs and the interface are working on a fix. I understand this is not easy as MS have not released an SDK for the weather engine is it is case of working in the dark.If you have the earlier version of FS Meteo (FS2k2 version) using that may help because it creates global weather not local.Apart from that I think we are all going to have to wait until the 3 wise men :-) come up with a fix.BTW ActiveSky2 also suffers from these wind shifts but in general they are not as sever as those in FS Meteo.

shame. I don't think the older versions of fsmeteo run at all with FS9. I'll just have to wait and suffer i guess.The PMDG 737's manage the shifts, to the extend they dont crash.PSS airbuses well they fall out of the sky

I'm having the same problems and for the time being I'm not using FSMeteo any longer. At 31000 fl you have very strong and unpredictable wind changes, so sharp that the aircraft is uncontrollable, airspeed to high, aircraft stressed and ... K.O.I sincerely hope a fix will be issued. (smooth changes in FSUIPC don't work either.merry ChristmasRino
