I looked at FSMetar but I don't understand how to install it Is there another, more recent program that offers more realistic weather for online flying with SB4?

Oh...

Sorry about that.

I have been busy the last few days so I missed it apparantly.

If you don't want to invest money, then you need to invest time (in getting FSMetar installed). There is no free lunch.

 

Cheers!

Hi Ian,

 

I'd unpack the RAR file (it's a compression method, like ZIP). You may need a program like WinRAR to do this as I'm not sure if WinZIP can unpack RAR files. Once upacked, you'll see the EXE file.

 

Also, check out his FSUIPC settings file. One thing though, it does look like you may need a registered version of FSUIPC to apply these settings. Not sure if it will work correctly with a non-registered version.

 

Cheers!

FSrealWX lite http://www.hanse-coders.net/index.php?page=self&id=1

 

This was posted in the FSEconomy forum today, seems like a timely topic. Haven't used it personally but trust the guy who recommended it.

Hi,

 

I did run the EXE, but the non-registered version of FSIUPC would explain the problem. I'll try Kyle's solution.

FSrealWX looking good, but do I have to connect it to FS, and, if so, will I have to do it each time I start FS and SB?
