Historical weather planned for MSFS 2024
RALF9636 replied to abrams_tank's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Data every minute sounds a bit extreme. They don't even do that with live weather, do they? And this is where plausability vs accuracy comes into play. Having plausible historic weather for up to one year in the past would be good enough for me. They could only take and archive 4 worldwide snapshots per day (so every six hours) and interpolate between them. That would already provide plausible weather for the date and time and would be a lot better than being limited to just one day. -
I agree they should do more hotfixes anyway. This routine of bundling it all up and waiting until everything is perfect isn't the best way to do it. I wish they would concentrate on specific issues one by one, and release the fix when it is ready, then move on to the next one. I am talking about bug fixes here, not new features, which is probably what the sim Updates (SU's) should be truly for.

I only know those exists as I had a look over the manual yesterday :) As JetCat mentioned earlier I definitely like the sophisticated modelling of things like the Garmin radios, looking forward to getting a chance to fly this when I finish work Now just need to persuade JF to add the open source KLN90 as a GPS option :)

Both Nvidia and AMD no longer make drivers for W7 .8. 8.1. They stopped some time ago you may get an old driver on the Nvidia web site, but you may have a problem in the sim as developers use the latest software and drivers. That`s why a reply to a problem from them, are you using the latest drivers and updates. Windows 10 will get the same in the future,

might get it - do you know if it will come to the market place today or just their website? -
Historical weather planned for MSFS 2024

Probably storage for all that data. For example, do they have to store MeteoBlue data every minute, for every location around the world? Then you add in the METAR data they have to store. Since you are storing for the entire world for 24 hours for every minute, that's a lot of data. If they decrease the frequecy of storing from 1 minute to 10 seconds, that increases the data six fold. If they store for 180 days, thst increases the data by a factor of 180. I don't know the frequency that the MeteoBlue data runs, but I can imagine if you to store that dsta for the most discrete location that data covers, for the entire world, that could be a lot of storage space. Then there may be restrictions from MeteoBlue on how long their data can be stored. -

Because I am talking about 2020 and all of the previous (nearly) 4 years. I accept the team may have grown since. However, like you, I am looking forward to MSFS2024, to which I am sure, most people are now working on. -
im sure theres not 100s of people working on su15.

How could you see it when 2024 isn't out yet? -

Regarding 2024 I just wanted to be able to read somewhere that Petrovich talent in flight dynamics for flight simulation is going to be the reason for deep changes to MSFS Fdm... That would turn me into a true believer... -
I'm picturing a weather engine that would for example take extensive data from just a few select locations, i.e. Buenos Aires, Cape Town, and Melbourne in the Southern Hemisphere, and say San Francisco, London, and Tokyo in the Northern Hemisphere, just as an example, interpolate for everywhere else, plus add a random element to it, and go back as far as 1903 (Wright Flyer). I'd use such a feature when flying historical planes, say somewhere in the 1950's for the DC6 or 60's-70's in the DC8. 100% accuracy wouldn't be the key, but rather plausibility. It'd probably just be a tiny nook within an already very small niche, but if you can imagine it, it just might be possible.

Has this problem started suddenly or been happening for a while? I'd start by lowering your settings. Have a read of this topic. https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/634984-prepar3d-ntdll-crash/ Don't run Delete Generated Files. That's the nuclear option.
