Problem with the weather (Majestic Dash 8 Q400)

Hi

 

I have a problem with the weather when I'm flying a Q400 from Majestic. When I fly with a bad weather, the clouds don't appear in the wing view from the cabin . In other views (and planes) , clouds appear without any problems. Can you help me?

If the view in other planes (default) work properly then there is nothing you can do.

I assume you are waiting long enough for the weather to redraw from the new view.

This is likely a defect in how the 3D model in the plane was coded.

If my assumption is correct, that you mean 'wing view' as a camera defined in the aircraft.cfg of the Q400, then look in the camera definition for that view (i.e. "left wing view") for the line which should say:

 

ShowWeather = yes

 

if it is missing or says 'no' then that is the cause of the missing clouds. If it already says 'yes' then I'm as confused as you about the cause.

 

a sample complete camera definition:

 

[CameraDefinition.1]

Title = "Left Wing"

Guid = {3A09FD6C-D406-4d8f-A5CD-FA4F5E0C12ED}

Description = View from the left wing looking at the cockpit

Origin = Center

Track = None

Category=Aircraft

MomentumEffect = No

 

SnapPbhAdjust = Ordinal

SnapPbhReturn = true

PanPbhAdjust = Swivel

PanPbhReturn = FALSE

 

AllowZoom = TRUE

InitialZoom = 1.0

SmoothZoomTime = 0 // immediate

ZoomPanScalar = 0

 

ShowAxis = false

ShowLensFlare = false

ShowWeather = Yes

 

InitialXyz = -11.5, 0.6, -0.2

InitialPbh = 5, 0, 85

 

XyzAdjust = TRUE

XyzRate = 5 // m/sec speed

xyzAccelleratorTime = 0

 

ClipMode=Minimum

Transition = No

;CycleHidden = True // optional to skip in 'A' key press sequence
