Hi all! Thanks for the answers. Yes, I'm enjoying it! Just because these shaped cloud was a little bit special, it was an eye-catcher. By the way, on the next flight I did not see this shape again... so there is a huge random in cloud shape, which is very good. best regards, Thomas

Hi ! first I have to say that the 4.5 version is really beautiful. But I have a small little problem: clouds are repeating very often. I have attached 2 images where I marked the repeating clouds... am I doing something wrong ? best regards, Thomas

Hi ! Thanks for the info. Thomas

Hi ! I think there is a drawing bug, sometimes I got clouds changing color from light to dark or vice versa. I just moved the camera a little bit up and down. Sometimes there are small areas flickering, sometimes bigger. It's inside of the cockpit or outside. Thomas NVEExport.0001.mp4

Hi ! Maybe it is worth trying and see if you can reproduce it yourself. It's very simple: 1) Go to Lima SPJC airport 2) takeoff. 3) set course to 25000 ft, 90deg, autopilot 4) wait. At me it happens within 15 minues. And don't care of the weather :-) At this season in Lima there is 24h the same weather. So you can try whenever you want to. best regards, Thomas

Hi ! I'm really not sure what the trigger is. First pic shows the view to the right just before it happens. Second pic after effect. Next pics show the different settings of SMP. Please look at pic 5 (no clouds) and at pic 3 and 6 (red arrows). There was even a different cloud height just switching between representations. 0:03:02.272 I/ATC: Changing SPLP CabState from 0 to 1 0:03:02.272 I/ATC: All departures are done at SPLP.

Hi ! Thanks for the info. Some remarks: 1) If I set it to "sparse particels", it's working, but it looks like a usual cloudy sky. 2) If I set it to "dense partices", I don't have clouds at all. Clear blue sky. -> (edit:) I have to correct that. If I'm below the clouds (here 1400 ft) it looks perfect. While climbing through the clouds, they began to fade out. reaching the top level of the clouds, they vanish. Blue clear sky. 3) If I set it to "solid stratoform" it's working like before the jump, low-layer clouds. If there were new localized cumulus clouds, where are they gone after setting it back to "solid stratoform" ? best regards, Thomas

Hi ! I don't think that the cumulus clouds are moving. I like to show you 4 photos: This was the situation after start below the clouds. Perfect :-) Above the clouds: wonderful And here we are some seconds before the jump: It's cloudy in the valley, no water to see And here we are some seconds later: we are below the clouds, can see the ocean.

Hi ! Hmmm, I could not really confirm that, but maybe I'm facing a different problem.... Yesterday I've made a short test-flight with V3.2.1 from SPJC (Lima) to SPZO (Cusco). Usually Lima has low-hanging dense clouds, which go until the mountains. It looks perfect, below the clouds and above the clouds. Very good. But as I turn around direction to Cusco, the clouds are jumping several times up, as the ground level changes. I'm using SMP 3.2.1 and RWC 1.0. best regards, Thomas
