So there is no support for OPUS so Im curious as to where is the weather  being drawn from when I set the winds and temps etc in the overlay section as its all showing up over my map ( opus user)

Hi Zoran,

 

If you do not have ActiveSky installed, the weather is coming from http://weather.noaa.gov  The weather from NOAA only gives you surface weather, where with ActiveSky you also get weather at several different flight levels.

 

thanks, Maarten

Maarten,

 

 Any chance of getting REX Essential WX into your program?

 

Thank you.

Hi Ken,

 

I do not have REX Essential WX, but I understand that the downloaded weather data is stored in files inside the [REX installation folder]\MetarXML folder. If you can send me the files in this folders, I can have a look and see if these files can be used or not.

 

thanks, Maarten
