Hi.  I'm running P3Dv4.5HF3 with ASP3D and ASCA.  I was wondering if ASCA is bypassed when ASP3D is set to "Live Weather".

Thanks for any comments on this.

I don't believe so .... after many flights with both live (current) & historical weather.

But then I always use ASCA Global Dynamic ...  so it may look obtuse with other ASCA textures 

for now, cheers

Remember, active sky cloud art  is only decorative. It is not a Weather engine. I use it regularly with live weather and I’m very satisfied with the results. But how it looks will depend ultimately upon how active sky itself as the weather engine determines whatever METAR it is interpreting.

No, ASCA is not bypassed. It is however bypassed when using Volumetric clouds/EA.

OK, thanks to all.  Apparently, it is subtle enough to not really interfere with the live weather that is being depicted.

Any recommendation for an ASCA setting (in addition to Global Dynamic) that works particularly well with ASP3D's Live Weather? Or, maybe they all do, just checking.  

Thanks again.

Jeff

That's a "subjective" question ........ ASCA has a range of themes (with permutations thereof) which may or may not in one's opinion look "real", & more so in different regions.

As above, given I flew/fly medium/long haul, Global Dynamic is my choice .. in the AsiaPacific.

for now, cheers

Thanks.  Yes, I know, it is subjective, and I certainly wasn't discounting your choice.  I was just wondering if there were any other "favorites".

Happy flying.
