I have recently purchased AS2012 as an upgrade from ASE.I am having problems with wind direction being stuck at whatever the wind was when I took off.I have AS2012 build version 4363.I have FSUIPC version 4.794, with all weather controls turned off.I am running AS2012 in Standard Depiction mode.This problem occurs whether or not I insert a flight plan.The wind speed seems to be correct.I've read the sticky topic at the top regarding stuck winds - but I'm not running in DWC mode, and I have the latest FSUIPC installed.Any ideas?

Hi there phil,I would suggest you open a support ticket for this one. (http://support.hifitechinc.com)

Good thinking Batman!Ticket submitted.But I was surprised that there are no other threads on this issue other than the sticky which doesn't really apply to my situation.Ifeveryone was having this issue, surley someone would have said something by now. The fact they haven't, suggests to me that maybe it's an issue with my setup somewhere, not with AS2012 itself.Is anyone else having this issue in Standard mode?

I believe I have solved my issues.It seemed to stem from having ATC Wind Lock and Supress Updates whilst on the Ground switched on.I noticed from the status log that when AS2012 first loads, it downloads the current weather from the system date and time.It then sets the wind lock to the value from that weather for the airport you are closest too.It then connects to FSX, and re-downloads weather for the date and time I had FSX set to.If Suppress Updates whilst on the Ground is switched on, none of the stations within the supression limit are updated to the FSX date and time - they remain at the system date and time.Either way, now that I've switched off Wind Lock and Supress Ground Updates, the weather loads correctly, and the upper winds are changing direction correctly.
