Don't change my weather settings!!

Featured Replies

For the Xth-time now, FS2024 thought it would be nice to change my weather settings (Live weather) to some default preset after a restart.
Did set up a flight with live weather, made a bit of a flight plan, started only to find out that TrackIR didn't respond, no blue light.
Since FS2024 doesn't have a rescan devices option (or does it?), I did quit the flight and quit 2024 to restart.
Upon restart, FS2024 picked up TrackIR, I selected Free Flight, loaded up my flightplan, checked it, hit the fly button only to see that globe was cloudless on loading which means FS2024 took the liberty to change my weather setting "again".
Just stop it!

I noticed earlier that it defaulted back to clear skies for me, I always fly with live weather - therefore thats how i left it last night.

 

another bug?

Old PC - Ryzen 5900x - 32gb 3600Mhz RAM - Asus Strix X570-F Motherboard - ASUS TUF OC RTX 3090 - 1TB Sabrent NVMe. AOC AGON 32" 144Hz - Honeycomb Yoke - Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog. T Flight Rudder Pedals - Trackir.

Same here.  You basically have to check the weather and make sure your control bindings are set to the right custom selection on every flight just to be sure.

Easiest way to handle this for me is to rightclick the taskbar, open task manager and kill the TIR process. Run TIR again as admin - if that doesn't work - run mouse emulation.

Takes longer foer me to type this than it takes to do in sim. That way I don't have to quit/restart flight

That happens to me in 2020 all the time. I always select Live Weather on the Free Flight page and it always reverts back to Clear the next time around. 

I thought this was a bug, but apparently it's a feature.

So what were saying is that MSFS2024 will default to preset weather on load up and I will have to select live weather each and every time, rather than remembering the last session where live weather was used?

On 2020, all you have to do is select Live Weather when you click the toolbar, and from then on it will always start with Live weather. Have no idea what 2024 does.
