I assume you are manually injecting weather. I suggest posting your x-plane rendering settings and a shot of your weather settings along with the SM ui. Not having this info let me shoot in the dark. 1. Make sure volumetric fog is enabled in the x-plane rendering options. 2. Try the low overcast option this will draw a solid flat layer at a given altitude which may be what you are looking for.

I'm glad you got it sorted
-
A couple of things what kind of hardware are you running? And are you sure you have the crepuscular rays disabled? I ask because smp does not affect the sun that is the x-plane default... You could try testing with the default clouds to see if the problem remains...
-
Thank you for your valuable input
-
This isn't an expected result of course.... A complete set of log files and detailed is and hardware info should be provided so we can help
-
I guess the first thing I need explained what do you mean by freeze? My first suggestion would to make sure you have 2.1 installed, try hitting reset from the smp ui and make small adjustments until you are happy with the appearance and performance of Skymaxx.....

Very cool Peter you always push the envelope with your sceneries
-
Very nice.....pics don't do SM justice you captured the beauty of it all
-
Awesome! That's why we made SMP scalable

Use this as a basic guide: http://forums.x-pilot.com/topic/7093-adjusting-skymaxx-pro-for-better-performance/

I agree they are but a frequent query on the weather system will result in delays whIle it updates. You can also explore the SMP ui some to tweak the clouds for faster loading.....
-
You might want to compare with and without the noaa plugin activated.....If I am not mistaken the weather updates very frequently using that plugin
-
Curious what kind of hardware are you running? Also are you running any kind of third party weather injector or squawkbox?
-
Wow!!! 0_o
-
One thing I noticed in your comparison shots were how much softer and realistic smp is compared to Rex in p3d..... Thanks for putting these together it's nice to have a comparison.....

Cloud Shadows in v2.1 are Affecting HDR Lighting
JohnMAXX replied to Aerospace's topic in SkyMaxx Pro v4
Jim, Yes this has to do with how we apply our shadows in X-Plane. They darken the whole scene and we are unable to differentiate lights from the total scene, our trade off to bring shadows into SMP.... My suggestion would be to adjust the cloud shadow slider down in the smp ui until you get a more acceptable result.... -
Bump for all the new users....
-
Great!
-
With Silver Lining enabled can you manually inject clouds? SM works perfectly in 10.30....
-
What Frank said....lol Skymaxx replaces the default clouds with a completely new system. It also is not a weather engine and is completely integrated withe the default weather generated in X-Plane. Also it works with 3rd party weather injectors....

Well I'm going to have to step up my game here..... Really happy there is competition to help bring focus to my seasons....

I have no idea what Tom is speaking of to get things straight..... I think he may of wanted to rain on my parade....
