For some reason the real world weather function in my version of FSX appears to have quit working. When I try to download real world weather I always get exactly the same conditions. It's as if I can no longer access the weather on line at the various airports I fly out of. Any ideas? Did this functionality go away for everyone, or just for me? Blindmelon

I agree. As a sim-savvy customer, I am thrilled with quality of the product, and the distribution of the scenery on USB hard drives like a chain letter seems to be working well. I also give Larry props for customer service and availability. Blindmelon

I have an interesting problem I'm not having much success resolving. When flying Briefing Time in FSX I lose about 5 fps when my mouse pointer disappears. If I move my mouse the framerate goes up again till my pointer automatically hides in 20 seconds or so. This does not occur with native FSX aircraft, but does occur with one of my other add-on aircraft. I have been trying to figure out how to prevent my mouse pointer from auto-hiding in the game, but have had no luck locating the applicable code in the game config file, aircraft config file, or in Nvidia card settings, or mouse settings. Any ideas on how to prevent framerate drop when pointer auto-hides or how to prevent pointer from auto-hiding in FSX would by greatly appreciated. Blindmelon
