Maverick51 Posted January 27, 2021 Report Posted January 27, 2021 Hi, I own SMP 4.0 since the begining but I've purchased RWC 1.2 a few days ago. And I find clouds cover is strange since I use RWC and SMP together. I send 2 photos. Tell me if it's normal ? Regards Quote
Cameron Posted January 27, 2021 Report Posted January 27, 2021 No, that doesn't look right. Can you post screenshots of your SkyMaxx Cumulus and Overcast selection menus? Quote

sundog Posted January 27, 2021 Report Posted January 27, 2021 What version of SkyMaxx Pro are you using specifically? Is it really 4.0? (It should say the version on the main configuration screen) Quote

Maverick51 Posted January 28, 2021 Author Report Posted January 28, 2021 But maybe because I've checked "never changed visible weather"? Quote
sundog Posted January 28, 2021 Report Posted January 28, 2021 Maybe, but I think you've just managed to find some very unusual METAR reports where you are flying that we can't quite smooth out. Are you running any other add-ons that might be affecting the weather conditions X-Plane sees? Quote
Maverick51 Posted January 28, 2021 Author Report Posted January 28, 2021 I'm using Active Sky and Xvision 2, nothing else. Quote

Active Sky has a special mode for SkyMaxx Pro you have to enable... if you refer to the manual for Real Weather Connector 1.2 it walks you through the steps. Might be something's not configured quite right there. Quote

Well I have a feeling ASXP is doing more harm than good in your case for some reason. Try setting RWC to "always" instead of FSGRW/ASXP mode. That will force it to use raw METAR data from NOAA instead of what ASXP is generating (but ASXP will still control your winds, visibility, etc.) You might also consider upgrading to SkyMaxx Pro 5; it ensures overcast and broken clouds look consistent at least.
