New Orbx Weather addon

Why doesn't the UI in the sim allow us enough flexibility to do this ourselves without an add-on?

Sure but then what is MeteoBlue's involvement. Aren't they supposed to be providing us with weather upgrades?

I have an idea for another addon: MagentaChild's Airport Picker: Picks an interesting airport for you from a selection of over 100 airports! Only 9,99!

I'll take two copies please.

They had/have a set of presets for P3D too. If you like the ease of just clicking a theme, it's handy. But MSFS has their own presets already.

Meteoblue is where the weather data is coming from. Asobo use the data for their weather engine and it's Asobo who would provide upgrades for the weather experience in the simulator.

Another weather add on (after REX) which I'm struggling to comprehend a use for.  I can already set manual presets in stock sim so why do I need this?  Either way I almost always fly with Live Weather anyway.....

True be interesting to know why this would be any different than setting up your own weather - settings in sim make it pretty easy to do yourself

I should have said, are they dynamic themes such as those included in REX WF?

Looks to me yes Buddy what else can it be really - hope all is well Pal

I'll probably add this as there are only a few default themes and these look very interesting.

Nobody has mentioned the fact that ORBX has had the unmitigated gall to introduce an previously unheard of concept for MSFS .... A Manual for their software???? 20 pages of what??? Instructions??? What is going on here?

I am considering sending an email to ZenDesk asking them for an immediate probe and a temporary stay on this until we can find out why ORBX felt justified to defy all previous MSFS policy regarding manuals.  MY goodness, The next step is going back to the caves. This HAS got to be STOPPED before it gets popular or out of control.

This is, of course, a social comment and is not intended to be taken seriously.
