weather add-on for v4.x advice?
Posted: Mon Jul 12, 2021 7:24 pm
Hello,
please could someone recommend decent weather add-on software for my freshly installed Prepar3D_v4_Academic_4.5.14.34698? I keep searching this forum, however search engine rejects my searches because words are always "too common", or something like that...
Right now I installed and testing the FSrealWX 3.0 64-bit for P3D (I use it for FS9/FSX sometimes too), but when comparing to my current, well tuned FSX Acceleration + ActiveSky Next, the P3D v4 + FSrealWX looks worse. Im considering either the current HiFi ActiveSky P3D (for P3Dv5 and P3Dv4), or FS Global Real Weather (for Prepar3D v4 only). Same price.
My PC is a bit outdated Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 16GB RAM, nVidia GTX 660Ti 2GB, standard 2TB HDD, and running @1920x1200 screen resolution. Latest Win10 21H1 release.
I fly primarily with MegaSceneryEarth (or other ortho), with added payware airports. Thinking about ORBX stuff down the road too, to have access to their airports and have generally some variety.
Which weather add-on to get?
Thanks in advance for advice.
