  1. I get what you are saying, however it happens to me from one second to another, without changing perspective or circumstances. And it's been like that on 2 systems (Mac and PC) and with 1.3 and 2.0 ...
  2. I think the real beauty of SM only shows in windy conditions (something that's non-existant in X-Plane's weather presets). Make a cloud layer (cumulus scattered) between 6 and 8 thousand feet. Then a wind layer, 150kts at 7 thousand feet and you will see what I mean.
  3. Hi there. First of all thank you for transforming the skies of X-Plane! I am happy to be able to almost max out SM2.0 with my system and results are great - especially having moving cumulus clouds (everybody should try that adding a 150kts wind layer right on the height of the clouds!) - they even look way better compared to non-moving cumulus. Add the shadows - boom! However, I have two little issues. Under bad weather (using X-Plane's start screen presets), the clouds remain white for me. So the sky and the fog will be grey, but the clouds are shiny white as always. I can't test right now to confirm if it has to do with the angle of the sun (or post a screen) - but the way I had it, it's kind of ruining the bad weather experience. Default X-Plane clouds would turn even darker than the grey sky - here the illusion of bad weather is intact. Is this a missing feature (fair enough) of SM 2.0 (rain clouds), or am I seeing a bug here? My other issue is the unreliability of the God Rays. I turn them on, wow, but after a while they would be gone. So the checkbox remains checked, but but's pure luck if I get God Rays or not. They turn on and off as they wish - making me turn them off to get a more consistent and predictable experience. This is a bug I guess? Any hope for a fix?
