While we find Real Weather Connector to work astoundingly well with X-Plane’s default real weather download, it also is compatible and works to compliment FSGRW, FSrealWX Pro, and any other weather based program which downloads and writes the METAR file format. Yes! Real Weather Connector is very versatile, and it will work with many real weather add-ons out there! It is meant to compliment programs and not replace them entirely if you don’t want it to. Real Weather Connector will help you experience weather more true to what is out there in the real world at that very moment! Does this work with my favorite real weather program? They are: cumulus, stratiform, cirrus, towering cumulus, and cumulonimbus.
In addition to more accurate placement, you will also be able to see up to five different cloud types with this product. With Real Weather Connector you can experience up to 6 layers of clouds for an insane amount of realism, and because we are able to parse through real weather data ourselves, you will find cloud placement to be even more precise than that of X-Plane’s own system (which is just a rough approximation). It’s better in a number of ways! X-Plane’s cloud system is limited to 3 layers of clouds visible at any given time.
It will literally change the way you visualize weather in X-Plane, and once you experience it, going back to the old way of flying without it won’t be an option in your mind! What it does is looks at real world weather data and then tells SkyMaxx Pro v4, “I need these type of clouds to go here, and these type here, and some others here, etc.” What this means is rather than having a scene of just something like overcast clouds everywhere, you could instead be flying over clear skies and see various layers of clouds ahead or around you precisely as they are in real time around the world! How is this better than using default clouds and X-Plane’s real weather feature? If you’re a SkyMaxx Pro v3 or above user then you do not want to fly without Real Weather Connector. With Real Weather Connector you’ll be able to actually see weather fronts ahead, behind, or on either side of you without abrupt changes to the weather!
