Hello, everyone.

Why don't I ever see those cumulous or "popcorn" looking clouds with ActiveSky, like I used to with Rex Skyforce 3D??

I figured that I probably shouldn't run both programs together.

Maybe somebody knows how? 

Thank You in advance!

There is an easy fix to alter  clouds under Options. I remember  the exact setting and I’m not iat my computer so I can’t take a look for you but  scout around.

The other option is to purchase the add-on active sky cloud art,, which works perfectly with active sky. It’s a very good program offering a lot of options.

Good luck and when you get things set up, show us some pictures

Thanks for the advice! I did just purchase cloud art! I'll play around with it tomorrow and get back to you!

Take care!

What is your favorite cloud texture setting for clouds?

I look for fluffy cumulus…there are several choices…find the one that meets your taste. There is also an overall setting. I use dynamic which mimics live weather from Active Sky and creates the textures based on real time.

Hmm. I'll try that. Thanks!!

Just to chime in, I always use the dynamic theme as it provides a changing variety of clouds throughout the flight.  If you are flying a long haul, you wouldn’t expect to see the same clouds upon departure from egll that you see arriving to vhhh.  
 

But the great thing about P3d and active sky/asca is you can customize to your liking. 
 

 

Is it called Full Dynamics? That's what I chose. There's another one called Global Automatic, but I'm following your advice. 

Thanks to both of you for your suggestion!!

"Full Dynamics' is definitely my favorite so far in ASCA!!

Thanks again for your help !
