Im not sure if this is a historical weather issue or not, but i know for a fact the day i went back to from a week ago had alot of cloud cover for miles, as i took off the cloud cover was there, then a few miles out it went poof and was clear skies.
Is there a setting im missing to prevent this? Anyone know.
I also experience clear sky after a while.
And I also experience drastic change in cloud depiction if I put msfs in active pause…
curious… do you get clear skies after awhile when using just active sky live weather or just historical?
Was it really just a few miles? Did you have a flight plan loaded, that was picked up by ASFS? The reason I ask is it will interpolate METAR’s along your route, based on the loaded plan, but I’ve never seen it do such abrupt changes over just a few miles.
yeah it was a few miles or maybe within say 7 mins of taking off, i didnt have a flight plan loaded however
It’s possible ASFS hadn’t actually initialised, and the switch you saw was when it did. It shouldn’t take 7 minutes though, maybe 30 seconds or so to start up, then maybe 5-10 seconds for initial injection.
I know this topic is about Active Sky historical weather. But I just wanted to chime in and say that Real Weather (MS/Asobo) weather was not working for me again yesterday. I started a flight in KDEN and there weren’t any clouds. The metar showed 3 levels of broken clouds. I switched to Rex and I then had clouds. Seems to be a common problem in KDEN. I’m not sure if Real Weather being broken has any bearing on other weather programs.
