Weather radar in P3D V5.3

[jfwharton 50]

Initially the weather radar worked in my Flysmware aircraft with P3D v5 and the MILVIZ Advantage Weather Radar for P3D v5.  When I upgraded to P3D v5.1 then the WX radar started causing hesitations where the sim paused momentarily every 15 seconds.  I unnstalled WX radar for P3D v5 and waited for MILVIZ to do an update.  Unfortunately with the release of P3D v5.2 and now v5.3 P3D broke the WX radar by MILVIZ and they are saying they can't fix it and haven't made any announcements that they are working to that end.  I have made configuration changes to the Lear 35 so it displays dual GTN's and no wx radar is displayed but have not been able to do that with my other Flysimware aircraft.  Is there a way I could get the wx radar to work in P3D v5.3?  I realize that I can just leave the radar display alone and non functional but it would be nice go get it working again.

My understanding is Milviz decided not upgrade the WX to work in P3D 5.3.

Thank you.  I thought I had stated that above but apparently I wasn't clear in what I wrote.

I doubt it. Milviz said they could not fix it because P3Dv5.3 no longer provides the code "hooks" they needed.

I put the below together some years ago. A bit crude, but better than a blank screen in my view.
