My only complaint

Postby alrot » Mon Sep 03, 2012 3:43 pm

with all slider full up ,when I set to full clouds and lower visibility I wonder why we can see the ground ?

I mean it doesn't look like in real life beneath the airplane It the ground should not be vissible

here's a FS9 "weather engine" that works for FSX pretty good.  I generated an "Intense thunderstorm" weather theme that pretty much hazes up the ground.

About the only times that I've ever lost sight of the ground is when real-world weather coincides with those conditions.  I have real-world on all the time and it simulates losing the ground quite well most all of the time.
I love the smell of radials in the morning!

Yes I agree it is a bit annoying, I use a free for UK program called 'Open Clouds' this shows actual real weather ,but not 100% accurate (you will find it on the web)  it is better than default
