Okay for some reason fs2002 has never heard of daylight savings. Because i put in my loacal time and it's night at 7:30pm when it's broad daylight in the 'real world'.

And the weather. i turn of wind and turbulence and there's wind and really heavy turbulence Angry

Some help me please.

EDIT: It only happens when i'm under the cloud line.

I Like Flight Simulation!

I think it's more likely that FS doesn't know the difference between the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. According to my rough observations sunset in Melbourne is 8:30 pm but the sun sets in the sim at 5:30 pm, about when it sets in the northern hemisphere at this time of year. I can't see any quick fix for this except to make sure that everything in Windows and in FS is set to your local time and location.

As far as the weather thing, do you have FSUIPC? That will fix a lot of weather and other problems. For FS02 get version 2.975 here. DO NOT get version 3.x if you are using FS02.

Yes thanks for that Wink

And with the weather it did that because i had real world weather on and I'd turn it off in game play and i pass through that zone and get into a new simular to the first one Grin

Edit: And i'll think i'll get active sky Wink

Active Sky is for FS9 and above...At least I think it is
