  1. Here is a short vid with and without xMETAR, you can see that the MFD screens become harder to see once the software starts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jQOwWpUojk
  2. $10 less at the moment, the price will rise. Anyway I'm not knocking ASFS, I also have that program (along with those for FSX and P3D). But unless this new software is tried out we will never know how good or bad it is and as I fly only with real time weather I'm not bothered about historical or scenarios.
  3. Just installed the latest update, will make a short vid later to highlight what I mean. I will also try with different aircraft and check if I get the same affect. Love the programm and the idea behind it. Will keep you posted. Also let me know if you want to continue this conversation elswhere👍
  4. Weather looks great, however I have one small problem. When I start it (AUTO) the Fenix cockpit brightens to the point where I can't see the screens, I have tried adjusting my monitor settings with no luck. When I switch back to normal MSFS live weather it's fine, any Ideas?
  5. I'm a MS Store user on the SU15 beta and no longer suffer from this, as I said above they fixed it about two udates ago.
  6. Installation simple but needs online connection. Weather depiction matched reality (once I had set my options! Oops). Using with both frame Gen and AutoFPS mods no problems encountered. FPS, actually noticed an increase in FPS flying over Spain with FG I have 70fps. So far so good, no heavy weather as yet as I'm using real time. Video of flight here:
  7. Are you on the beta? I had this about three updates ago, all good now.
  8. There is no METAR or TAF available in the weather app Windy either. You can however use Windy to gauge wind diirection, strength and it also gives pressure i.e. currently 1019.
  9. This "might" be worth a try. I have a 3060 12 Gig on a second generation Ryzen 7. Try the MSFS 2020 Map mod, it now has 2 cache's DATA and Photogrammetry. I get 70 fps which is smooth as silk. Another tip if you are using Reshade with FG remove it, I gained over 20 fps. P.S. Don't forget to empty the cache's after every flight. Here is an example:
  10. Watch this video from Island Sim Pilot:
  11. I have a 3060 running the frame gen mod, this new file works perfectly so far.
