....yet when  you look out the window the plane is flying on rails even while flying through towering cumulus clouds. 

Not true either.

I fly for a living and there is nothing about MSFS that gives the same feel as turbulence on a real aircraft. Its probably one of the very few things that P3D did better albeit with a paid addon M. A. REALTURB

You are welcome to your own opinion but I am not on an island with mine. There has been plenty of other people who feel the same

That does not mean you are right.

Im not going to have another semantical argument with you. I said there is other people who feel the same after you replied to my position as "not true" So I guess you are right then huh? Your username checks out. I feel like im talking to a brick wall but a stonedoor could easily be it as well.

Don't answer if you have nothing to say.

Strange it seems thats what your last 3 posts have been. 78 total post and probably your last 5 have offered no position at all. You might as well delete your account and just browse. Forums are for conversations. At least people can see where I stand and what I believe in but you are just like "no" and "not true" lol good talk. No way you are over 18.

 

 You said bye earlier yet here you are lol Must have alot of time on your hands. Ill take care of this for the both of us. You arent offering any substance other than disagreeing without any real points anyways. Blocked

 

 

The irony being there's too much turbulence in this thread.

Quite some time ago, they reduced the cloud density parameter in Live Weather - presumably for performance reasons. You can still get far more realistic-looking clouds and in-cloud effects by using manual weather, where you can set the density parameter.

I sure hope they blend that into Live Weather, add a density/complexity slider.  Lord knows there is more than ample horsepower to deliver on that.

This is a subjective issue.  People base their opinions on past experience, either in other sims or real world flight.

Problem is most non-pilots and even some actual pilots will never get to fly in situations where strong/severe turbulence is an issue (where I live, for example, no one generally flies when there is a strong wind off the mountains, other than to depart for somewhere else as fast as possible, and you certainly would never take passengers up for a joy flight with wind from that direction).   Even if they have experienced strong turbulence, it is likely in a tube-liner.

I know for a fact there are no cloud turbulences or CAT in MSFS. Since as GA you fly at much lower altitudes than airliners, what you experienced are exaggerated terrain turbulence effects (which happened to happen while you were in the clouds).

Turbulences from mountain ranges are also considered as CAT.

« CAT definitions exclude turbulence caused by thunderstorms, low-altitude temperature inversions, thermals, strong surface winds, or local terrain features «

Your quote does exclude the first two words: "Generallly, though, ...". In paragraph 6.7.3 and 6.7.4, your document does mention how terrain "greatly intensifies" CAT. Also, Mountain ranges are not a local terrain feature.

That is because the plane has "built in" turbulence enhancement..

By enhancement do you mean the in-aircraft tablet setting for controlling aircraft reaction to turbulence? (the max setting does a "2:1" per what Scott says below so assuming that means the sim's turbulence is enhanced to twice the effect by the Comanche). Either which way, A2A's Accusim FM still has to depend on the sim turbulence (and other weather) to make the aircraft react to it. So if there is no turbulence coming in from the sim then the A2A Comanche is not going to simulate any turbulence/weather of its own.

"You can set the MSFS turbulence setting to LOW or REALISTIC as Accu-Sim will follow this. We designed the turbulence with it set to REALISTIC. The Accu-Sim slider is a scalar that, in the middle, is 1:1. Full right is 2:1 and full left is off. I hope this makes sense."  
"They default to the middle. I set them there. Full right you are a glutton for punishment"

"Our flight model aerodynamics are 100% outside MSFS including wind physics (we read the weather conditions reported by the simulator)"

I find I can experience an appropriate amount of turbulence inline with my expectations within the sim, and adjust it up or down in the settings, so I don't know why others don't have it.

I find it varies with weather, terrain, and time of day, as the thermals drop off, and as some have said, FSRealistic only tries to enhance the effect by moving the camera more.
