YES!! No more flat clouds...thanks a huge bunch for this Rob!! ^_^

Yes sir, 45 minutes of cloud flying in New England and northern CA and no wafer-thin clouds standing on their edges. Thank you Rob and LM!  

It works. Thanks Rob.

Thanks Rob for your hard work on getting this fixed

Glad it's working for you folks.

 

Cheers, Rob.

Thanks Rob, exactly what I was hoping for!

 

Tym

thanks from me too Rob !

 

Without you everything would be much darker :wub:

The hotfix (correct term???) works!!! It's as if this magical sim is being constantly worked on :ph34r: .

No more flat clouds spinning with my trackIR

 

Thanks Rob and LM for the research and to share this "corrected" cloud.fx

This just made my week...nice work Rob and LM

 

 

No more flat clouds spinning with my trackIR

 

Wait...this file fixes both vertical and spinning clouds?  I won't be able to test until later tonight.

Rob is right and the 2.2 cloud-shader helps a bit with rotating clouds.

 

But there is a side effect.

Did you notice that you simply LOSE YOUR CLOUD-SHADOWS???

 

Well, if the no cloud-shadows = FSX equation is true, then most probably the best is to use FSX, but I personally love the cloud-shadows, so no rotating stuff will prevent me using the 2.4 cloud shader.

 

BTW, the cloud2 shader is the very same since 2.2

Nope, cloud shadows are fine ... sound like you missed something.  Bob made this a sticky in Tips and Tricks forum here: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/457381-solution-to-vertical-cloud-problem-in-p3d-v23-24/  (thanks Bob, I was just about to do that).

 

Others, be sure to thank the LM crew too, I was just trying to come up with solutions from what I had, LM crew stepped up to the plate to provide this 2.4 version matched quick fix.

 

Cheers, Rob.

_{I will try this tonight when I get home, as those spinning clouds sure removes the excitement... Thank you so much Rob (and the guys at LM).}
