Why don’t you ask on the HiFiSim support forum?

You took the words right out of my mouth 🙂 Like you I bought my first AS version in 2005 (ASV in June '05) and I have acquired every single version for the ESP platform since then. Although my primary use case is not the same as yours (FenixSim A320 for BAVirtual) I find the default wx engine entirely fit for purpose, except for the somewhat poor cloud depiction. DEP/DEST metars have been accurate, upper winds close enough to those used in Simbrief when planning to result in fuel consumption very close to planned amounts. I have been following this thread to help me decide whether I should purchase ASFS, but so far I'm not convinced. In fact, the fairly rabid rebuttals towards any sort of criticism of ASFS has actually had the opposite effect for me, but hey, it's still early days ...

A gentle nudge to get us back on topic perhaps?? This thread is about the coming SFO from Flightbeam ...

Active Sky coming to MSFS

Active Sky coming to MSFS
SierraDelta replied to carlanthony24's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Well, he didn't. ASFS makes "full use of the Active Sky weather data and synthesis system" and uses that to create wx presets and inject these into MSFS - just like REX and XEnviro. The success or failure of ASFS will very much depend on how often and intelligently these presets are injected as well as how smooth the transitions are implemented. All without any negative effects to performance. -
Active Sky coming to MSFS
SierraDelta replied to carlanthony24's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
According to the product description on the HiFi website there are 2 methods available in ASFS: - ASFS Preset Weather Depiction Mode ASFS Preset weather depiction mode features advanced weather preset conditions control for the best accuracy within the preset depiction capabilities, and full use of the Active Sky weather data and synthesis system including historical and custom weather options... - Passive Depiction Mode Passive mode is used with live weather and allows MSFS’s internal live weather depiction to take full control of weather depiction in the simulator, while Active Sky FS provides Active Air Effects and all other non-depiction features... I encourage you all to go and read the full product description, but basically it looks to me that we get - yet another - preset-based wx injector. I'll wait for now. PS. Ooh, there are no proper cirrus clouds visible in the screenshots 😉 -
Why MSFS must be XBox like or die

Sorry, but you started it yourself a few pages back: -
Managing Takeoffs Fenix A320 CFM vs. IAE Engines
SierraDelta replied to zachlog's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I only fly the IAE version so can’t help with comparisons. I’ve seen both flaps 1, 2 and 3 as a result of the T/O calculator, with most often 2, then 1 and very rarely 3. There’s an acknowledged problem with the SRS not guiding you to V2+15, but only V2. I,ve seen this on a few flights, but the team is looking into it. -
Severe Texture Re-draw Popping post SU12
SierraDelta replied to Nicholas Jackson's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
My guess is that he probably doesn't use the external view, given his setup. -
Fenix AP disconnect is still not fixed
SierraDelta replied to BWBriscoe's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Sorry Ben, but nothing needs addressing. Seems like a hardware problem on your setup. -
