rjevansuk Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Just did a flight in the Shetlands with the date set to tomorrow and the time set to 09.40 to check if FSX would model the eclipse. Sadly it didn't:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 -Autostar- is an addon that adds the planets, zodiac, and possibly also eclipses. When installing there is a default file you need to back-up. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvieno Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 It does eclipses? I know it can do comets, if set up properly, but didn't know about eclipses.

Stepolano Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 If FSX modeled the eclipse and its effects we could be virtual eclipse chasers. There's a total lunar eclipse (Blood Moon) in 2 weeks (April 4). Solar eclipses can only be seen in a small region of the world while lunar eclipses can be seen anywhere you can see the moon at the time the eclipse occur.
