Doubt programming resources is different whether it was 24hr or 24 weeks. Always amusing when people call something a waste when it’s a feature they’re not interested in.

Yeah, I would have liked at least a week - and for others' sake maybe 6 month by the look of it. I like to save and resume flights when I'm ready for long-haul. Real life does get in the way sometimes! I'm happy to have ASFS instead now. Back home 🙂 Although I still spend 95% of my time in P3D to be honest.

I'll know where to look when I eventually upgrade the PC and start afresh! Cheers

Could that be because you had the post pinned though? It solved mine years ago.

I disagree, I actually thought they looked good. Goes to show there is very varying taste amongst simmers.

It wasn't the base sim, it was a tool bar add-on that was problematic.

You don't. I just user another toolbar hiding add-on that is not that one, and all is good. I'll link it to you when I'm home later.

Maybe you should write to ICAO. I’ve never read something so silly all year.

I thought your recent post was much nicer so I'll skip writing to them on this occasion. 😅

If you read my post, it's not your opinion I called you out on. It was the rude way you were referring to others. I'm not going to sit here replying to you all day, I just ask that you treat others with a bit more respect and address them politely. As an aside, I have noted your presence in quite a few topics such as this one, where you don't seem to have an interest in the topic itself, rather you like to argue for the sake of it. Maybe I'm wrong, but your posts would be much more mature and pleasant to read if they weren't addressing people rudely and not throwing stones that don't need throwing.

I have not seen you make a polite or pleasant post in this thread yet. Referring to people who are in the thread as "he" and "this guy" is not polite, and you do the community a disservice in using these rude ways to address people who are here. There are/were some people who espoused that weather in MSFS was close enough to perfect, and that it shouldn't be touched or opened up. I remember reading such posts myself.

There does seem to be a bit of an over-emphasis on approaching fronts, as if it is perfect weather one side, and then terrible on the other. It's not always that cut and dry. The good thing is if you value this feature of MSFS, you can still use ASFS to give you better air/turbulence/thunderstorm effects that default MSFS simply does not have, or implements poorly.

I have flown towards increasing cloud before and the weather has deteriorated as expected. It is not random. It is in accordance with what I might expect - flying into an overcast area from a relatively nice day. On an unrelated note, I have valued the accuracy of the ASFS depictions, something MSFS is not so good at as far as accuracy at airports goes. The other evening - WMKP Penang had a thunderstorm on top of it according to the METAR. Default MSFS weather - nothing - just some fluffy fair-weather cumulus cotton balls as far as the eye could see. A pleasant, mostly sunny afternoon. Nothing at all like the actual conditions reported there. ASFS, however, correctly depicted the thunderstorm and crappy weather around the airport. Even the MSFS METAR said TS but it was not presenting anything even remotely like it. Just a nice afternoon.

I have seen plenty of times clouds on one side and not the other with ASFS. It is not as if every direction is the same weather with its methods.

Another issue I think ASFS will get better is accurate depiction at airports. Had a look at WMKP yesterday in MSFS live weather. Metar says TS. Just a few fluffy cumulus and otheriwse a sunny afternoon. No sign of any TS.
