October 7, 20205 yr This looks interesting at least to save time. 40 presets that they say "go beyond" what's possible with the in-sim creator.

Nexus mods have one for free. Nowhere near 40 presets - but it is free. https://www.nexusmods.com/microsoftflightsimulator/mods/80

I got the payware version and I'm very happy with the purchase. I highly recommend the WPP themes pack. MSFS

October 7, 20205 yr The non-steam version requires the free presets to go here: drive:\{Flight sim directory}\{Some GUID-like number}\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator{another GUID-like number}\LocalState\Weather\Presets Quite the archaic path, isn't it?

October 7, 20205 yr I bought them from ORBX. I like supporting developers. They look great, I even had a sand storm in NH. Right after a snowstorm. These will make it really fast to set up a tricky IFR procedure or a beautiful VFR flight if real WX is not what you feel like flying in. That is often the case though most of the time I like real WX. I like the presets a lot.

October 7, 20205 yr Thanks for the suggestions. Initially I followed the readme, then check the theme options in MSFS and they showed up, but when I selected each one at a time, they all showed up as foggy conditions. I figured that maybe they were installed in the wrong folder. I deleted them and this morning I bought from ORBX and installed the payware version and I'm very happy with the results. Best regards. MSFS
October 7, 20205 yr I just bought it and installed using the Orbx installer. It installs within Orbx folders not the MSFS weather\presets\ so I am unable to use any of these presets. edited to add: I went to Orbx and did an uninstall and reinstalled I now I see a whole lots of weather presets.

October 7, 20205 yr OK I took the airbus from KIAH (Houston) to KDFW (dallas) and used preset 0 visibility and took off on the Airbus 320 Neo and approached to land on 18R ILS at 200 feet on approach I could see nothing and let the AP take me down further like in Cat 1 landing and at 50-40 feet I disabled the AP to flare and I then saw the runway.. Landed nicely. Enjoyed it What It doesn't have which I need is to do the same for non precision approaches like VOR approach or NDB approach.. where 0 visibility would not do. I need 1 mile, 2 mile and 3 mile visibility and I am not seeing anything here for those. And yes. I have the freeware which provides many of the same things. But for 8 bucks having 40 preset I think is ok. I would recommend addd these 40 to the 10 or freeware presets and we have a good set. Except for the 1,2 and 3 mile visibility which I don't think is possible unless Asobo fixes the viability range thingi and they have acknowledged it that they have it on their to do list.
