Good stuff....Hail him! yep

I'm also hoping that one day 777 include a 'save quick mission' option as well like IL-2 etc (IE a saved plane set, different flight alts, plane alts-load outs-fuel, type of mission, weather and time etc that you can save in the QMG) and this more detailed weather generator could eventually be incorporated officially. That would be the business! smile



Bloody lovely! Going to have some fun with this. thumbsup

Definitely a step in the right direction, much appreciated, and will install to give it a go.

Does anyone know what the limitations are of the 'weather/cloud' system? The screenshots here present nice rearrangements of the 'cotton balls', but is there potential to get something other than cumulus types? Yes, we have complete overcast, but... well, you know...

Wow! Thank you, Elephant!

The game can look better. I make some steps to diversify the weather in the game. The ways to the engine are quite high, but require further development. The developers do not consider it an important issue. Very few people pay attention to the weather. The forum is not the people who said the developers "give us another weather." For the game, you can create a cloud, and static. But this can not be controlled. I can not even change the position of the clouds relative to each other. Randomization of the location of clouds in the sky runs by its own rules. To me they are unknown. I really want to create different kinds of weather, but I can not do anything. Limitations of randomization and the inability to control it leads to bad results. If users want a new weather they need to create a wish for the game and bring them to the developers. Changing weather is many hours of programming. If the developers are confident that you need it, they will include it in the work plan. I very much hope that this will happen. All in your hands.
S!
