What Does RWC Do?
Hello, I am a new member to the X-Pilot Forums, and I joined, due to owning both SkyMaxxPro and Real Weather Connector. In recent months, I also bought the new ActiveSkyXP add-on, since I've used it before in other simulators. Since I have all three add-ons installed, and they seem to all work together, I am curious as to what RWC actually does, that ASXP doesn't and why the dependency between SMP and RWC?
My workflow in XP is to first start up ASXP, then start up X-Plane. At the startup
RWC acts as the glue to SMP that tells SMP where to place clouds in a scene based on real world METAR data. Let's use the following example to explain it:
We are going to assume RWC is NOT installed in the following example.
1. San Francisco, CA is reporting clear skies
2. Oakland, CA across the bay is reporting overcast
3. San Jose, CA on the south side of the bay is reporting scattered clouds
Let's say we fly from SFO-OAK-SJC for purposes of demonstration.
