Ah, I only have one monitor so didn't come across this. Maybe the AutoHaze window is opening but off screen. I'll have a test version for you shortly to see if I can fix this.

Yes, always re-install the lua script and helper with each new release.

V2.1 released. Haze is now consistent up to the BLH (Boundary Layer Height), then starts to clear. This fixes the clearance starting as soon as the aircraft leaves the ground.

Thank you, glad you are enjoying it. In the next version I am correcting how quickly the haze clears. What should happen is the haze level is consistent up to the BLH (Boundary Layer Height). Once above that altitude the haze will clear. I have mistakenly started clearing the haze as soon as you leave the ground, slowly clearing it all the way to the BLH.

The latest version has fixed all the issues you have read about. Place files in the scripts folder and you are done. A couple of checks you can do to stop the most common issues are... You may find your system 'blocks' the download. If this happens (you will see 'not yet queried' in the window) right click AHHelper.exe, select properties - look for an 'Unlock' check box, tick it and click ok. Add an exclusion for the scripts folder in your anti-virus. It has only been a few days since I released it so I am very thankful for all the bug reports here and on the ORG. The script is stable now so you shouldn't meet any of the bugs you have read about.

Sorry about that - V2 is now uploaded!!

Oops. Let me know if your pauses are solved.

That looks far too local an effect for AutoHaze to be responsible. Perhaps others have seen this in X-Plane - I haven't.

Version 2.0 is now available - no more pauses or window flashes!

This problem fixed in the next release - no pauses or windows opening.

I think I have solved this pause issue by using Python for the HTTP API calls. I'm testing it now on my PC and I see no flashes or pauses at all in XP12.

Only problem is any haze won't thicken up if you above BLH altitude. I have tried a couple of ways to fix the paused but unsuccessful so far.

I still don't know the answer to this - many don't see this at all! In the latest version I have a tick box allowing for separate API calls or combined - let me know if the combined option is an improvement for you.

AutoHaze v1.9 is now available. This update brings some significant improvements to the atmospheric physics, and I'd like to thank @Maya2 whose expert feedback was central to the changes in this release. PHYSICS CORRECTIONS The most important change in v1.9 is the replacement of the empirical AOD-to-turbidity lookup table with a physically correct conversion based on the Koschmieder and Linke turbidity equations. The formula is scaled to account for X-Plane's own base atmospheric scattering, giving a much more accurate relationship between real-world aerosol optical depth and the rendered sky appearance. The visibility-to-turbidity curve has been updated to match, using the same underlying physics throughout. Both curves are now physically consistent with each other. The practical result is that regional variation is much more convincing. California with low AOD looks genuinely clear with distant mountains visible through light haze. The UK with moderate AOD looks appropriately hazier. The Indo-Gangetic Plain with high AOD looks dramatically hazy. This variation was not possible with the previous approach.

# As you have 'Use Cams aerosol data' ticked, you may want to untick 'Fix BLH altitude' (unless you are testing). further investigation and a very helpful post from @Maya2, I would recommend everyone untick Single and Multi. I was using them mainly to tune flying into and out of haze. However, those settings do introduce some colour issues. I left them in because this script is a follow on from HazeAdjust.
