Weather Engines

Recommended Posts

Hi folks!

 

Question that I often ask myself which someone might know the answer to.

 

I have both ASN and Opus Weather Engines and think they are both good at what they do, however why is it that when ASN updates the weather the clouds remain and no sudden change and yet Opus cannot do this?

 

Is it because ASN runs outside of the sim....I am just curious, I know and have read that Opus states it is a limitation of the flight sim, bit just wondered if anyone had any idea..

 

As I said I support both and they are good products so no argument there....just trying to understand the workings..

 

All the best

Because ASN is placing every single cloud into FSX. Also, there needs to be Simconnect workarounds which HiFi Sim figured out long ago and others have not.

Thanks JIm,

 

Thought it had to be something like that...makes sense re simconnect.

 

All the best
