Thats just terrain mesh. I have nothing else, no addon airports, no ortho, nothing.

I dont have any third part scenery. Just planes and default airports. I might try reinstall just in case

Its the wilkie one. I took 2 screen shots, first after i went through all the colours than selected wilke and second same setting after restart, Seems a refresh fixes it, but comes back after restart. Vulcan b17 also in 16, 2xAA i think second notch, and HDR I love my light. Log.txt

Yes all upt o date, and i did notice if you move around you can make it dissapear, don't think i have any sky color set.

Hi, not sure this is your or a laminar problem, we get a nice square around the sun, noticed in b16 and now in 17, had pretty miserable weather lately so first time to really look.

Nah, its an xplane thing, it seems xplane Atis, just uses some random weather report on initial load, after about 15 minutes it refeshes and uses the one in the Metar report, you can test it for yourself, pick a runway with clouds etc, and listen to the metar, it will change, this morning at YSBK its saying weather is clear, but it is actually over cast and raining, after 15 minuets it updates and weather is correct, of course skymax already has clouds displayed as it is reading the correct Metar report.

I think it may also be based on the refresh time, i had it set to 60 min changed it to 15 and it updated the weather next load in about 5 min. Need to play more

Hi, I am not sure wether this is an Xplane or skymax issue. But when Xplane first loads. the weather seems to always be the last weather received before shut down,. if you sit long enough at the airport it will change before you leave to what you expect, even doing a force refresh wont fix it. So i am not sure if Skymax is producing weather at the very start when xplane is loaded or later.

Is ok found it. Big red button, ticket submitted.

Being looking around to see where I can raise a ticket, it isnt obvious. But I just had a windows update and so far after an xplane crash and just after a retstart I have being asked twice to re regsiter my software, I havnt even changed any of my hardware nor anything else, Thats in the last 2 hrs on the beta Gizmo. Help

someone mentioned reinstalling both skymax and rwx fixed it, i dont have teh issue, in b15

not sure its Gizmo seeing a few planes do it, that dont use Gizmo, and I dont use reshade or anything like that.

Win 10 did major update, today I had to re register machine and remove and older one. But went ok so far.

Laminar have made it clear not to play with shaders, they will cause crashes.

I will put it here. As stated, and just to confirm, I downloaded an installer from your store. 250 Kb, running installer gives me same down load speed, lucky to top 275 kb. Down loaded from another store 3Mb. Tired 4g phone tethered to bypass all my network, same thing. So it is not my provider because 4g bypasses all of that and other store I believe in US worked fine. Now if it is true that you have servers in different countries, is it possible in your installer to allow us to select which country to down load from, it may solve this issue since I have no idea where your servers are. And if we have a known bad one than we can pick another. Australia in Sydney NSW dont know how other sates are doing not sure if VPN will fix. DOnt use VPNs Thanks

I have done everything, reset IP, flushed DNS internet reset modem, it is only the installer thats dying. Im am in Australia, tried 10 times to run an installer and never completes. Starts at 333kb ends up around 270 and times out when it reaches teh end, Never completes. Thats 44min to download file should do in like 5.

Yes killing me cant get higher than 270 KB and never completely lately, times out right at the end. All i have being doing is wasting bandwidth.

Skymax seems to cause a huge pause in xplane at start up, a few times xplane hasnt started. like this 0:05:57.847 I/ATC: Heading 0 6 0, vectors for the visual runway 30R, down to 4 thousand, 228 134. 0:06:00.174 G64: debug: MAXX: METAR dl complete: https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/observations/metar/cycles/08Z.TXT 0:06:00.174 G64: debug: MAXX: Writing METAR to: (G:/X-Plane 11 Beta/MAXX_METAR.rwx) 0:06:09.987 D/ATC: p=4 (N816NN): Fly Heading: 157 0:06:09.987 D/ATC: p=4 (N816NN): Maintain 3999ft 0:06:09.987 I/ATC: 737-800 6NN, Fly heading 1 5 0, vectors for the visual approach runway 30R, descend and maintain 4 thousand. SkyMaxx Pro: Found new MAXX_METAR.rwx file of size 2889150 SkyMaxx Pro: Parsing METAR data SkyMaxx Pro: METAR parsing took 130 ms. Think thats with Skymax on always

Ye im enjoying this too, especially in QLD where clouds ten to sit low on the hills, its a huge improvement

Another minor issue. When fist loading XPLANE it seems to grab the sim to download weather and thats fine, Better to have it done at beginning of flight, but I lost my internet, and if left in auto it simply pauses the sim every couple of minutes had to force it to use XPLANE weather, than it stopped. Thanks again.

On the ORG in the h11.5b9 topics its being discussed by multiple people.

@Gildahl this appears to be an xplane issue as it seems others have same issue using default and other clouds.

Saw teh previews looking good.

Wouldnt it just be easier to assign a slider or knob on your joystick to the breaks for when landing

IAS is for controlling vertical speed, the plane will change pitch to maintain the speed you set, this is common on a lot of planes
