Hi,

is it possible that the real world weather server is down? Haven't been able to get a weather update in some time now.

Well, I checked my side of the internerd and everything seems fine. Ports are set on the router, firewall is set up right. FS9 re-installed but still no real world weather. For now I'll fly user defined, maybe it'll come back one day...

Hello Micro...

I remember I did a search for it...

It came up...I downloaded "Weather Maker Pro 4.9", (old version from somewhere), and installed it, and I use it daily....for free...which is nice....

...!

The only one I had to purchase recently was "Ground Environment Pro"...£35!... Shocked

...

...!

Paul...Whether the Weather is willing or not... Cool

...!

I did have the REALLY OLD, simple version of "Weather Maker" at one time, when it was free, a long time ago...but it was then discontinued and I lost it!

Have a poke around for it... Wink

...!

"Real Environment" is nice as well.
I start every session off with the two programs.....which is lovely... Kiss

Hmm. Just looked at the payware version on simMarket (only 9 euros!) and it does indeed look good, so I might give it a go, to sit alongside the fab ISG1 FMC etc. that I got from there a couple of months ago.

Any downsides? I hear you have to have 'render to texture' turned off.

Can someone provide me with a downloadlink to Real Environment? Tried to google it but only get forumthreads or screenshots of it. There seems to be a download available from Avsim but that doesn't work yet. Many thanks in advance.
