hello,

 

I can confirm this; I just did a test it works ok!

Did anyone try Navlost.eu ?

 

You can get up to 100 metar or TAF reports per ICAO identifier (and one can specify several identifiers in 1 query) :

 

i.e. a query for the last 100 metars ending at 2012-10-08 22:00:00 for LFMP - LFBO - LFPG

 

A cool tool ;-)

Hello Jean-Paul

 

Great! I have immediately bookmarked this site.

 

This site is, I think, a good solution for mad dog!

Well, I did buy the program. It does indeed do what it says it does. Compliments to Opus for a very good job. I'll be using this quite a lot I suspect. Thanks for the info here :smile:

We will be upgrading our METAR file import option so that you can replay historic weather, perhaps even introducing a seperate option which is easy to configure.

 

Navlost.eu is a really useful site, thanks JP for the recommendation.

Another question:

what about turbulence inside clouds and wake turbulence when landing? Are they simulated in OPUS?

[Opus Software 84]

Yes we have cloud turbulence but don't have any immediate plans to implement wake turbulence.

[jgoggi 65]

Thank you. Well, I can live without the wake turbulence ^_^

[MMartinov 48]

Yes we have cloud turbulence but don't have any immediate plans to implement wake turbulence.

 

For this to work do I need to un-check "disable turbulence and thermal effects" in FSX?

I did couple of flights with the NGX in some bad weather but didn't see any turbulence hitting the plane while flying through the cloud layers.. Is this random? And do I need to check anything in FSUIPC (registered)? Thanks..

Im in a flight now and have good cloud turbulence I have disabled accufeel as a precaution but would like to know if Accufeel and Opus can be run together.

 

great product by the way, the cloud structure is to real!

Time to start learning to read these charts. Any suggestions where to start ?

You don't need to un-check "disable turbulence and thermal effects" in FSX and you don't need to check anything in FSUIPC.

 

The DHM effects are associated with camera views, have you set them up?

If you still are not seeing DHM effects you may need to do the following;

 

Right click on the your OpusFSX SERVER desktop shortcut icon (C:\OpusFSX\FSXSERVER.EXE) and select Properties, select the Compatibility tab, tick the checkbox to "Run as Administrator". Also set this option for FSXCLIENT.EXE on your optional client PCs.

 

would like to know if Accufeel and Opus can be run together.

 

We haven't tried Accufeel here but you could try it with the aircraft movement options turned off and see if that works, let me know.

We are now looking to implement a historic weather option where you specify the required period of interest and OpusFSX automatically downloads the weather for you.

Excellent weather, camera, historic data. If you also make the briefing reports for flight plan wind averages, temps etc then we're done! Competition is dead!!!

Well, if not, you can always wait for PFPX.

How did this become the Opus support forum? :-)
