Hi Pete,
It’s me again with another question. First of all I am using Active Sky version 6 for weather… and again I have a purchased version of FSUIPC.
While reading the FSUIPC Users Guide…specifically page 19 (the Miscellaneous tab) paragraph heading "Apply attempted white-out fix", I noticed that I am getting an exact reaction as describe in this paragraph while coming out of clouds. I get a lot of soup and can’t really see the runway or VASI lights until I am within a few miles of touch down, however, it clears fairly well as I get lower and closer to the runway.
I find this unusual as when I taxi to parking and check the local weather (in this case) it is as follows: Wind-191 @ 3 mi, Visibility- > 20 miles, Sky- few clouds @ 6k-8k scattered, Temperature- 28/14, Pressure- 3003.
As you can see when clearing the lowest cloud layer I should have a visibility of…as advertised > 20 miles.
I also noticed that the last sentence in this narrative states that “It is definitely fixed in FS2004”.
My question would be; why is this happening, I may very well have something set incorrectly, however, I have no idea what that might be.
I am still looking and reading into this, but I thought, to not reinvent the wheel I would ask you, the expert for help.
My Specs: Windows XP-SP2 Professional
ASUS “A8N-SLI Deluxe” NVIDIA nForce Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 FX-57 2.8 GHz 1MB Cache 64 Bit Processor
Dual (2 ea) nVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX 256MB GDDR3 PCI-Express Video Cards
4GB PC3200 DDR RAM
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS 7.1
Dual Western Digital Raptor 74GB 10000RPM 8MB Cache HD
I would appreciate any help you can give me and I will be more than glad to supply additional information.
Thank You
George
