I just installed version 3.2.2 of SkyMaxx Pro and tried to install RealWeatherConnector. However, RealWeatherConnector said I must have SkyMaxx Pro 3.1.1 or greater?

I've been experiencing this same issue. Changing anything in the FMC results in terrible stuttering until I finally am able to hit the EXEC key. I find it strange that Windows Defender would be causing this and suddenly wanting to rapidly and repeatedly scan the X-Plane directories... I haven't had the issue with any other aircraft? Nonetheless, I will try adding an exception to Windows Defender next time around and see if that fixes it for me as well.

I was prepping my plane and turned the decision knob all the way to the left (to try to get -20) and all the displays went black (PFD, NAV, radios, DH, everything). I tried turning the knob back but nothing would happen.

Interesting, so even using the command ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_at_disengage_act 1 (which is what fires when you push the button on the throttles) it trips the A/T arm switch on the MCP. Is that how the real plane works too? Edit: It is indeed how the real plane works. http://www.flaps2approach.com/journal/2014/9/2/b737-autothrottle-at-normal-and-non-normal-operations.html A/T disengage button on throttle thrust lever. Depressing this button will disengage the A/T and disconnect the A/T solenoid switch on the MCP.

Is there an actual command or dataref for auto-throttle disconnect? The best I have been able to do is ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_at_arm_act 0 But that just switches off the A/T all together (disarming it). The default X-Plane one doesn't seem to work for me.

That was me checking out my new liveries. It was done manually through the X-Plane menu and a good 20 minutes before the crash.

I was sitting on the ramp at KTUS preparing the plane for the 2nd tutorial. I had started the right engine and just as the left engine got to about 25% N2 X-Plane completely crashed. This plane seems to be the only one bringing X-Plane to its knees for me. All log files I have are attached.

Hey there, Alright, first off, I have searched and read a handful of posts about struggles and preferences people have had with different tools/plugins. I was hoping to kind of compile this all together in a single post for myself and the future reference of others. With that out of the way... I'm trying to accomplish weather that is as close to real life as possible. I have the latest SkyMaxx Pro and RealWeatherConnector. I also have tried the NOAA plugin, X-Plane's native weather, and some others. I'm wondering what kind of settings and combinations of plugins people have been using that yielded the most realistic results? There are a myriad of settings for all these different plugins, as well as for X-Plane itself, and it'd be nice to have some guidance. It's really nice to have the bottom layer of clouds I'm flying over when I'm at FL300+, but it's IMPERATIVE that I have accurate weather on approach and landing. For example, I was using NOAA + RWC the other day when landing at KORD and had to fight with a 20kt crosswind that wasn't actually there! (The METAR online stated I should be landing into a headwind - so this made things a bit interesting). Is there a way to ensure that below a certain elevation I get updates more frequently or any kind of certainty that they match the actual METAR reports for that airport? I know when I've used X-Plane's native weather, it's done something similar where it hasn't updated for a while, I'm getting around 3000 AGL and I can tell the weather isn't matching up with what I'm seeing in my METAR reports so I go tell it to "Update Now!" and get violent changes in the weather. If this has already been answered before or there are guides out there or something, please just point me to those as I would be apparently inept at searching.
