Can this be stopped?

Hi guys.

 

Is there a way to prevent this from happening or is it one of those FSX things?

I dont think its an FSX thing as i dont see it and im also useing AS (2012)

 

The only time i have seen this was when i was useing fsx realworld weather and there was no weather station around me to update from. The jagged line of clouds was the end of the previose weather report.

 

This shouldnt happen with AS...Do you have DWC on?

Do you have ''create additional stations'' checked in settings?

 

Only reason i ask is becuase ive never seen it with AS and thats the settings i have.

I too have this issue, usually with stratus clouds. I think it is "one of those FSX things"...

This is mostly an FS thing, it depends on the graphics settings, overhead, scenery, weather station positions and the data itself. With the use of stratus clouds for overcast enhancement feature we have noticed an increase in this potential anomaly. We are working to improve things here and avoid this type of depiction as much as possible.

You can uncheck the overcast ceiling enhancement feature to reduce this kind of depiction.
