Live Weather - No Clouds?

Featured Replies

This happened today and yesterday.  Set up sim and selected Live Weather.  Airport was EGAA (Belfast).   The Metar had broken clouds and rain with vix 8000.  However, flightsim had no clouds or rain - but the QNH and wind were both correct?

Any ideas?

You're not the only one by the looks of it.

There was literally a fix for no clouds in SU14 saying it will solve it. And now this.., SMH

xEnviro for me, much more realistic cloud formations.

FIXED!!

Somehow "Volumetric Atmospheric Effects" had been switched off in the Developers Options menu.

The same thing happened to me.

Hmm, I don't remember turning that off.
I turned it back on and voila!
