i had the same issue i uninstalled everything you have to do it manually bc the uninstallers doesnt delete everything, you have to delete from roaming, program files and community everything that named hifi or asfs after just reinstall the 8881 version and it should be fine

i had to guess... but where i can found i uninstall again, but have no clue where to go for kill rest of files
found this, but this is empty c:\Users\maname\AppData\Roaming\HiFi\AS_FS\
programfiles\hifi there was something... but i don't sure, may be somewhere else...
ah see... community... you said
looks like from community the uninstaller made the job

Here you can see at 1h4min50s
Live Weather with simbrief flightplan does not match reality.
I clear flightplan then clouds appears.
Something is wrong.

I haven't updated to latest Beta as I have the previous one working 100% with awesome transitions and turbulence dialed in. Going to hold on this version for a bit.
Clouds look great, precipitation is accurate and awesome looking (both rain and snow). Low level fog when reported and low level clouds have been spot on.

Ok, trip from KORD to KBWI in the PMDG 737 800. No flight plan loaded. Using ASFS preset. No issues with excessive turbulence or loss of control. Several mild turbulence events occured, no problem. Arrive at KBWI with this METAR which is accurately represented with dense thick overcast breaking out at about 3400:
KBWI 272154Z 15005KT 10SM FEW020 OVC034 14/10 A3036 RMK AO2 SLP279 T01440100
Shortly after landing there is a sudden change with only partly cloudy skies. There was no change in the METAR. Actually looked like FEW020 was being portrayed without the overcast.
After about 8 minutes or so, the overcast slowly drew itself back in to resemble what is was on arrival. Again METAR did not change.
I saw this in the log which corresponds to the time after I landed and when the weather refresh occurred:
3:31:32 PM:0790-New weather theme generation is complete...
3:33:02 PM:0141-Sim location changed. Enabling instant weather reload..
3:33:05 PM:0194-Sim location changed. Enabling instant weather reload..
3:33:05 PM:0542-Aircraft appears to have teleported, forcing smooth theme reload...
3:33:05 PM:0542-Building the theme...
3:33:05 PM:0546-l=752, r=784, u=496, l=528, centerX=768, centerY=512
3:33:06 PM:0169-Time elapsed for building the theme: 00:00:00.6253867
3:33:06 PM:0170-New weather theme generation is complete...
During this time I had landed at KBWI and was taxiing around to the gate. I did not teleport anywhere or use GSX Pro to reposition me. In fact when this occurred I had not launched GSX Pro yet.
Very interesting, hope this might be helpful to Developers to understand what happened.

This is supposed to only be triggered by a location changed simconnect event. I just verified to be sure, there is no event like this sent at all in my testing landing at various airports with or without a flight plan. It happens only when location change event triggered by MSFS when actual location changed by menu selection. So the question is, what triggered this event? Did you use an add-on or other MSFS menu action to change locations?

The only add on I use is GSX Pro, which I called after this event to get a gate set up. GSX Pro can teleport the aircraft to another location, but I did not use it for that. I recall I had landed, and exited the runway to the wrong side, and had to taxi back to the main terminal side, and that was when it happened. KBWI is a payware airport. I did not access the MSFS menu at all. Very strange.
Took the beta plunge yesterday and i am really enjoying the results. going to do a long distance tubeliner flight today to see how that looks to me. The depictions seem accurate as i am using metar-taf.com to double check things

i found some strange thing. when you fly away from your start weather change and this change all around you can see by same way, and as long you fly the weather go with you and changing so you see to horizon same the weather depend where you right now, then go fly back and when you landing weather same as was at take off. so would be really cool if weather will not depend of user never. just depend of geographical coordinates. this looks really really strange.

With ASFS B8883 I flew from KMCI to KDFW to test any differences between the ASFS and Msfs weather.
The weather conditions predicted along the entire route, as indicated by SAT and Metar, total cloud cover up to 10,000 feet with TSRA areas and cumulus clouds up to 33,000 feet.
Already at KMCI there was a difference between ASFS and the Msfs weather because if the METAR indicated RA, ASFS did not display any
rain while MSFS yes.
After departure above 10,000 feet, the display of total cloud cover, as per METAR, was the same between ASFS and MSFS but after approximately 8 minutes of flight, ASFS began to display more and more areas with no clouds while MSFS remained with the total cloud cover.
After closing and restarting ASFS, the full display of the clouds returned as in Msfs.
After about 16 minutes the METAR indicated TSRA with cumulus clouds up to 33,000 feet on both ASFS and MSFS but while MSFS displayed them, ASFS remained with total cloud cover at 10,000 feet.
Shut down and restarted ASFS consistently displayed cumulus clouds up to 33,000 feet with the addition of lightning missing in MSFS.
Practically when the Metar changed, Msfs adapted while ASFS only if I closed and restarted ASFS.

will cool if weather will instantly update 200nm around player, so if above sky clean but at 50nm clouds there clouds, above player clean and if it update instantly constantly there will not confusing stuff. and flat bottom of clouds back and looks really ugly. let make clouds 3d in all directions if they aren't stratus cirrus virus
if they aren't stratus cirrus virusSame here
same also here
This is impossible for the locked weather api of the sim, if you like this variety try asfs in passive modewill cool if weather will instantly update 200nm around player, so if above sky clean but at 50nm clouds there clouds, above player clean and if it update instantly constantly there will not confusing stuff. and flat bottom of clouds back and looks really ugly. let make clouds 3d in all directions
