Active Sky Next (ASN)- Can't Control Ambient Weather - P3D 2.4

[nudata 10]

The last update the same Can't Control Ambient Weather happened. Had to wait awhile for a fix. 

 

Now the same error after installing P3D V2.4 update.

 

The update (not full install) went perfectly and no files had to be restored. I know little about the nuances of ASN and only use it with no fiddling. 

 

I assume I am not alone with this error.

Wait for the ASN P3D 2.4 update, like the rest of us. :smile:

 

It should be available in a couple of days: http://www.hifitechinc.com/forums/showthread.php?3751-upcoming-P3D-v2-4-patch

So... just updated and am now getting the Can't control ambient weather message....

 

What do I need to do to get this working?

 

thanks,

Andrew

Andrew,

 

Check your DLL.xml for Active sky entry.

 

Mine has this data:

 

    <Launch.Addon>
    <Name>as_connect</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Path>as_srv\as_btstrp.dll</Path>
  </Launch.Addon>

Looks like it's ok - here's what I've got:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
  <Descr>Launch</Descr>
  <Filename>dll.xml</Filename>
  <Disabled>False</Disabled>
  <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
  <Launch.Addon>
    <Name>as_connect</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Path>as_srv\as_btstrp.dll</Path>
  </Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>

Did you delete this folder: as_srv

 

Mine is here: F:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v2\as_srv

 

 

Then run the ASConnect_P3D_Install.exe

 

Which puts all good stuff back into the Newly created folder?

check here. It is usually a permissions issue.

Thanks guys - 

 

Vaughan - Ran it... same issue! Drat.

 

Vic - thanks - will try that tonight. 

 

Amazing how dependent we get on this stuff! And I've only used on default settings.

 

cheers

Hi again Vic-

 

Ok... FSUIPC version is OK.

 

however... step 2: "2) Ensure that FSUIPC wind smoothing is disabled (you can press the "wx settings off" button)"...

 

can't find it! Where is that?

 

thanks

Andrew
