XP12 fully simulated weather-radar coming very soon

Featured Replies

I just saw that video from Philipp. The new weather-radar-capabilities are simply mindblowing. I had not expected that level of accuracy. Even turbulences and windshear-warnings will be included! Simply amazing in my opinion. I have been waiting for that since years in any sim. I cannot wait to see it in action in the next XP-version coming hopefully soon.

Nice video to post in MSFS Facebook groups, to make MSFS simmers cry. **insert Dr. Evil laugh here**

I don't think they are crying they are waiting for a radar of cows and kangaroos. 

Promising !

Very promising indeed. An intensive demo of the function of a defaut weather radar that is coming with the sim with tilts and gains. Very good demo!!!   

Watched the vid. Way the most advanced and apparently well modelled default weather radar among the civil platforms presently available and most probably counting FS 2024 too !!!

This is GREAT !

Absolutely nice touch with the radar echo of the other plane 🙂

 

This is absolutely brilliant. The only question becomes what it will take for the 3rd party aircraft to incorporate those into the birds we own. That's the real question. Cause default is well... default. I don't fly those often. Though it's great that the capability is finally there.

Best news update for a long time!

How about put this Dev in charge of upgrading the cloud environment now.

I absolutely agree. The new weather system is a big improvement over XP11 but they need to optimise it. Not only do I hope that they will keep improving the shape of clouds but fthe most annoying thing imo. is that every 15 minutes clouds are being built up or disappearing right in front of the aircraft within seconds, the same with the weather-returns, making the whole radar-thing almost useless when trying to avoid some areas. I have reported that already a few times and hope they can fix it.

And also the weather-returns showing patterns of repetitive squader-shaped areas not connected to each others when they very obviously should is something that will hopefully improve.

As far as I’ve heard from their explanations, implementing such a radar in 3rd party addons should be pretty easy for them. I’m looking forward to it. I do also not fly default often and then almost only the SR22.

It is likely that the new detailed weather radar will also push LR to keep improving the weather/cloud system, since any issue affecting weather or clouds is amplified with such a realistic weather radar. A win-win, hopefully!

No they are fixing the clouds because they know there are issues for some under certain conditions just like the altitude bump which I believe they have resolved
