FSRealWX and P3Dv6

Featured Replies

Just to say this neat add on shows real time weather in P3Dv6!

this is what I get in real time:

 

11:08:07:566 - (ConnectWorker) get aircraft data failed: Error number not found

11:08:07:566 - (Controller) - JobID:4 JobName:Aircraft data Finished, Error: 8

I ran the simconnect installer,

\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v6\redist\Interface\FSX-SP2-XPACK\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi

Under Settings\General\Path to Sim FSX/P3D/XPlane I pointed to my P3Dv6 main folder at:

 E:/Program Files/Lockheed Martin/Prepar3D v6 and and in fsrealwx I selected Simconnect under Settings\Interface 

but I don't see any weather change in P3Dv6 after fsrealwx downloaded the weather. what do I need to select in P3Dv6 under weather settings? I chose "custom weather".

later:

it obviously DID change the weather in P3Dv6, just not what skyvector is showing. 🤣

 no thanks, back to my favourite simulator. glad I spent only 9.99 for 1 month developer trial.
