Yeah, I tried that. For now, the work around is just to go back into flight configuration and change the weather back to automatic. It's a very strange bug and doesn't happen every flight. I can't figure out how or why the sim changes from real world weather to manual by itself. I have RWC set to automatic when not using FSGRW and FSGRW external injector when I am. I have decided not to use FSGRW, what a waste of $50. Using FSGRW, I don't get turbulence and the weather pops in when it reloads. Part of the reason I got Skymaxx was because the weather doesn't reload like it does with default. Plus I get better frames, which is nice. Overall, I like Skymaxx. Performance is way better than XEnviro.

The issue is, I was having this problem with Skymaxx and RWC ALONE. I got FSGRW thinking it would solve the issue.

I'm doing a flight this morning and encountered the same problem again. Weather changes to manual and shows storm in the xplane weather settings. Convinced this is a skymaxx issue again. After disabling skymaxx things go back to normal.

That makes sense, thank you!

I'm cruising at FL270 in the middle of no where and it's 7:00pm local and absolutely dark, yet I can see the clouds as if they're lit. Is that normal?

Just in case, here is my log.txt. There not being any clouds is not the problem, the weather didn't call for any clouds. When necessary, it draws the clouds just fine. I had another idea - perhaps it was this XVisability LUA script I was using. Perhaps that was messing things up. So, I deleted fly with LUA and did another flight this morning. Everything seemed to work out okay. Must have been that. I'll do some more testing today and make sure everything is okay and let you know if not. In the mean time, please look at my log.txt and make sure there's nothing out of the ordinary. Thanks for all your time and help! I sincerely appreciate it. Log.txt

Here are those screen shots as requested. I was able to get the correct weather back by stopping FSGRW and reinjecting the weather. It seems to start out fine on the ground but changes sometime during climb or cruise. I noticed in the default XP weather settings it's suppose to be on "from customer METAR" but changes over to "Manually Configured" at some point which is what causes the issue. Just another note, this happened without FSGRW (I bought FSGRW to see if it would fix the issue and give me better wind aloft) and PilotEdge does not inject weather. So I think it's safe to assume Skymaxx is the culprit. Your help is much appreciated.

I use Skymaxx pro with RWC and have noticed some weird weather conflicts. For example, the weather will be clear skies and beautiful, yet I am hearing thunder and even sometimes seeing rain. I look at the default xplane weather and it shows stormy, which must be why I'm hearing thunder, yet there shouldn't be any. Okay, I thought, maybe if I up my game and get FS global real weather. That should fix it, since it's injecting the weather into xplane. Nope, same problem. It's even showing up on the weather radar, yet there isn't (and shouldn't be) any storms. What's going on here? I don't remember having this issue before. I've also noticed sudden abrupt winds aloft changes that don't mesh up with what FSGRW says they should be. For example, 45 knot winds instead of the 25 it should be. I am using pilot edge, but I don't think that would do anything, would it? Any idea what's causing this?
