Just bought Activesky for P3Dv5 yesterday (have used active sky for years on FSX, but recently started using P3D)
I have a problem with the wind system…
In general the problem boils down to the simulator wind doesn’t match the wind on the debug page (the wind that should be send to the simulator?). The wind in p3d will try to follow the wind on the debug page, however it does this very slowly (over minutes), which makes gust, variable wind and wind shear impossible to simulate (as the debug wind, have time to change back before P3D reacts). The mean wind is what Its supposed to, however gust, variable and windshear only makes p3d react with maybe 2 kts or 2 degress.
it seems to me like some excessive wind smoothing, however I do not have anything else installed which should interfere with the WX in p3d. The active sky setting are set to realism.
thanks
edit: btw all other wx (vis, clouds etc matches active sky)
