  1. Hi, is the real weather suppose to act like this? It image the real weather perfectly but my big problem is the wind. If the wind is 5 kts, it's the same in any altitude, with no wind shear or something. I thought the challenging weather factor setting would make the weather more interresting that the default real weather in x-plane. I had no problem installing it, have installed all the plugins from the installation software and found no conflicting weather plugins prior to installing ultra-vx. I had no error warnings during install and the the software is communicating with x-plane. So why is it setting the wind the same in any altitude with no variation? Am i doing something wrong or is it suppose to act like this? Thanks for any help. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. Think I answer myself This might be the thing i'm looking for: http://ticket-system.org/efasswiki/index.php/Ultra-WX_Weather_Engine Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Im not happy with the "set random and only semi-controlled weather patterns". The visibility is nearly always very, very high, the wind dosn't seem to increase as the altitude increase, and rain often seem to come from nowhere (I see no clouds - at least they are very high).

  4. Thanks. Interresting software. I wish x-plane could have some sort of algorithm that add a little variation to the wind in the METAR reports. I guess I go back to manually setting weather, then. What I would especially love is an addon that create weather simple and realistically that change from location to location. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  5. Hi, I love the real weather in X-Plane 10, but my problem is how static the weather almost always is. Im not a real-life pilot so im curious of imputs from real pilots or someone who simply know more than me. The wind is always constant at, for example, 10 knots, with no gust, shear or turbulence at all. The only variation come from the terrain, making the plane tip straight up or down, never sideways. Its hard to believe thats how real life is. At least some shear, gust or turbulence should appear even at little wind, i imagine. The only time i see those things appear is in very strong wind. And as i have other flight sims like AeroflyFS, i doubt how realistic the "real weather" wind in x-plane really is. AeroflyFS and other sims like dcs and il2 Stalingrad is my reference, and some youtube videos As i mentioned, im not a real pilot, so i appreciate your opinions. I dont have much knowledge of setting a realistic weather manually either, so thats why i like to use real weather and how the weather change from place to place. Simply put: Does the x-plane real weather model the wind realistically? Thanks for any reply! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
