chanchu81 Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hello Pete, I wanted to know if this offset is supported on MSFS as I am doing some test and I manage the data thet I read from that offset to identify current visibility. Documentation says: 0E8A 2 Current visibility (Statue miles * 100) Ok Ok But using console I have this data: 7145282 Monitor IPC:0E8A (U8) = 179. Based in the documentation and doing all converstion current visibility seems to be 1NM but Simulator gives me 6NM. Thank you for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This offset is clearly marked in red, i.e. not available or working. The old SimConnect weather interface has been deprecated in MSFS and is no longer available. You could try offset 0x2DF0, which holds the simvar AMBIENT VISIBILITY, documented as Visibility at the aircraft, in metres, as a 64-bit double floating point – for reading. (and in MSFS documentation: Ambient visibility (only measures ambient particle visibility - related to ambient density). John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chanchu81 Posted August 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 I am sorry, I was not familiar with that documentation. I just downloaded the SDK and started to code from there. My bad. I will test 0x2DF0 then. Thank you for your help Santiago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 The FSUIPC7 separate documentation package is quite out-of-date at the moment. I will update it in the coming days. For now, to get the latest documentation, download and install FSUIPC7 and just select the Documentation component to install. This will also install FSUIPC7, but you can remove or just not use that if not needed. If using the SDK, it is also better to install that using the FSUIPC7 installer as that will also be more up-to-date. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
