How do you explain this ...?

Dear SimmersI have NO (zero, geen, keine) weather selected in FS2004. Nothing in the clouds section of FSUIPC, not other program running, NOTHING ... and still these clouds pop up everywhere? (look at pics)Those in the distance are little boxes and with sun set you could see the boxes around them.Strange?Could someone explain it to me please?RegardsTerblanche

Set dynamic weather changes to none. As for the clouds, did you install some cloud textures? Restore the original ones and see if that fixes it.

CraigThe Dynamic Weather Changes is set to NONE ... and when FSW's Cumulus and Cirrus clouds came out, I replaced the old one's with them. Have not changed anything yet since then. But I will give it a shot.RegardsTerblanche

HiNot sure if this is your problem,but those clouds are the ones that are generated with thermals made by thermiek,Maybe some addon scenery has them included.The square cloud texture has been linked with these bgl thermalsRegardsMaV

I was flying from LFRS (Nantes) default airport with a few LAGO (hopeless)FSE objects to EBBR (by Robert Buysen) over a few German Airport 4 (GAP4) airports to EDDM.Could it be within the GAP4 scenery, although I saw them from not far from Nantes and they continued to pop after right through to EDDM. When I went back to Nantes, they were gone.Strange?I have no other thermal program running.Thanx for the help so far.T

Whenever a flight is saved the weather at the time is also saved under the same name of the flight with a .WX extension. If, when you saved your default flight, you had any kind of weather generated, that weather is loaded each time the default flight is loaded. The solution? Load your default flight, clear out all weather, and then re-save the default flight.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

I've got those clouds too, trying flying at night in the area where you've spotted them, mine are lighted!! They cover pretty all of northern France, Belgium and some part of The Netherlands. I'd really like to get rid of those too...

Yip Nick, now you're talking!Those are the ones - white little buggers all over the place. Very very strange!T

Terblanche,those clouds indeed look like thermals that come with soaring scenery files. I did quite some soaring in Switzerland-Austria and these clouds only went away when I switched the said scenery areas off. In my soaring scenery folder I have files like chth1_a.bgl to chth4_a.bgl, fr_test.BGL, nederland_01_a.bgl, fr_test.BGL, Innsbruck-Zell.bgl and so on...If you find a suspicious .bgl file, open it with Wordpad and search for cld1.bmp. If you find it, there's more than a good chance that this is the offending file! The soaring .bgl's with these clouds are localized, so search for add-ons you have instaled for areas where these clouds appear.If the clouds appear everywhere, well, then I'm a bit at a loss what to tell you... :) Still, search through .bgl files for cldX.bmp where X=1-10. Regards,Jure http://www.globecargo.org/images/VAA_Captain.jpg

JureI've checked every single *.bgl file for a cld*.bmp with no luck. There seems to be no *.bgl file on my computer that contains a link to those white puffs of frame eaters.Any other ideas?I also have no soaring / thermal scenery cum program loaded and therefor do not have an idea where any thermals could come from. My external weather window also shows NO CLOUDS, NO WINDS, NO NOTHING but hold and behold within FS2004 they appear again and again over Europe. Not over Africa or Russia funny enough.:-(Thanx for the helpTerblanche
