HC_Official Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) Hello. I posted this yesterday but deleted it because I wanted to confirm. The weather is being pulled from its source correctly and placed into the mission. However, I find on every case the winds are been generated 180 degrees off the actual forecasted wind. Example metar at KLSV was indicating conditions at 170/ 17 SKC 32 degrees and alimeter was 29.72. In the sim itself the conditions were 350/ 17 SKC 32 degrees 29.72. So everything things is been generated except the winds are always been generated 180 degrees off. Any ideas why? Cheers The weather is pulled from the internet from the entered airport, I think DCS does wind direction arse about face if I remember correctly in the ME Hi Wood. Whose solution are you using? HC_official's? Deadpool I would guess he is using our one, since this thread is specifically about that, barring some posts were someone has tried to hijack this thread to promote his own stuff ..... not cool by the way Edited May 2, 2020 by HC_Official No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .

Biga42 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 @Wood and @HC_Official this is because in the metar the values are "from where" the wind blows and in Russia "to where" the wind blows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimiC Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 hey guys. trying to put this onto a dedicated server. i get the following. Error seems to be about the mission file created by the bat file using 7zip, python then can't open or find it? is this a privilege issue? dcs_weather.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimiC Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 edit: I appear to have fixed the above by elevated priv for python I'm curios on the time settings? Is there a setting to adjust from Zulu to local as the missions are being set to Zulu but the theatre is +2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know it works, but since it's not going to use DCS 2.7 "cloud preset" only one cloud layer will be rendered. To get the most beautiful looking clouds at the moment the only way is select one of the cloud preset. 1 FlighRIG => CPU: RyZen 5900x | RAM: 64GB Corsair 3000Mhz | GPU: nVIDIA RTX 4090 FE | OS Storage: SSD NVMe Samsung 850 Pro 512GB, DCS Storage: SSD NVMe Sabrent 1TB | Device: Multipurpose-UFC, VirPil T-50, TM WARTHOG Throttle, TrackHat, MFD Cougar with screen.

HC_Official Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 1 hour ago, Poko24 said: Can't wait already! Thanks. ok I took a stab at updating it to use new clouds (see first post) there is also a new feature with the date, there are still presets available but I have also added a parameter of new eg dcs_weather.py D:\DCS_Missions\Weapons_Training_v2.11.2.miz KLAS UGSS new ^ use 2 airports and use the current month BUT pick the night with a FULL MOON this was designed for our use we run the server for 6 hours at a time before restarts, so you get about 4hours of evening as it gets darker then 2 hours of dark with a full moon see the read me for more info see how it runs for you I have done some basic testing ............ 2 No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .
