windqaz Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Hi Everybody. I am having problems with Real World weather. When I click on it, it tells me that I "don't have internet connection, please check your internet". Yet I have internet connection to any other site. What can be the problem?

tgibson_new Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 If you mean the FS2004 real weather, it no longer works. Search the forum here for multiple threads on potential replacements.

djfierce Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Interesting, I miss having real weather, I'll have to check out FXReal.

Dijon76 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Ok change tact, is version 3.0 payware? So confusing with this add-on. If its the same as v2.0 its free for 30 days with all features, after that the weather part still works. John KFRG New York Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoratioWondersocks Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) Ok change tact, is version 3.0 payware? So confusing with this add-on. Hello JSMR You are right it is very confusing . I use FSXreal weather PRO which is in the archive section . I have used this particular version for many years until recently when it got deleted during a reinstall of W10. Sadly it had disappeared from the downloads at the FXreal website(archive section).(Much hiss and boo)...But! HOORAH it became available again quite recently. In my opinion FXrealweather PRO is better than LITE ,AND 3.0 as well . VERSION 3.0 is i 'believe' payware and on first use it shows a thirty day trial period...however on using the program a number of times that thirty day trial doesn't decrease it just stays at thirty days. FXrealweather PRO Is Iam sure the freeware version ,but that does display a fifteen day trial period and that DOES decrease with daily use .I am not sure what happens when i reach zero days, but I 'THINK' you can still use it . Confusing or what? Anyways FXrealweather lite is definitely free. Fxrealweather PRO i am pretty sure is free. FXReal 3.0 is i think the payware version. IMO opinion having tried all those versions FXrealweather PRO is my favoured choice. One criticism of all versions is the some times ultra wild wind changes in speed and direction and consequently rapid instant drops or increases in aircraft speeds which can lead to you being hurled around the sky in a most disconcerting manner (i don't believe this is meant to be simulated extreme turbulence/wind shear either but maybe....) if it is then i would not like to experience the real thing. All in all a good weather addon though and with improvements i would probably be prepared to buy. Gawd ! What a carry on. :) Cheers Andy Edited October 15, 2020 by HoratioWondersocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSMR Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Ok I have the 3.0 version which I downloaded. So far still saying 31 days left but maybe it started at 32 days. lol. Yeah confusing how it works. But I believe with one I had in the past - maybe it was PRO too? Or Version 2.0 - you needed to get a serial key by joining the support forums. Which I recall meant the payware version then became a free payware version or something?? Its always been a confusing product. But it works mostly but I always have SOME issues with it not displaying the METAR correctly. And I can never get the flight plan to display the info of any add-on aircraft in my sim. Using the aircraft editor. Is that payware only? https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
