Good show! Can't wait to try it out.:rock:

I'll leave this one for a bit, then close it with another re-direct to
your main thread for this :yep:

Again, nice job here.

Gott en himmel..! You did it!! :up:

Looks quite promising http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...s/thumbsup.gif

I don't see the Realweatherfix.zip in there. Only the NYGM Weather report.:hmm:

GWX2 - RealWeatherFix: Problems
 

If you are using GWX2, do NOT use RealWeatherFix mod.

As Blacklight said, nothing there, only the pdf file!:-?

There is a problem with RealWeatherFix and GWX 2.0, so Stiebler has taken the file down. He is currently working with the GWX team to resolve the problem so it should be back up in a few days--hopefully!

RWF works with all previous versions of GWX, however.

Rats!

Well, I hope you get it sorted out, since I decided GWX 2 is the GWX for me, but I would like to do something other than spend 4 weeks in the "perfect storm"! :)

GWX-2 + RealWeatherFix mod: problem resolved.
 

The problem with GWX2 - RealWeatherFix mod lies in the fact that I was testing with the wrong file scene.dat for GWX2. The real one is *twice* as long! As a result, maximum buffer size allocated in the mod was too small for GWX. The GWX-2 file is an incredible 905 Kbytes. The cause of the problem was that the GWX-2 file was being truncated. [So why not use a dynamic buffer size? Static buffer sizes are normally much more robust.]


I've fixed this problem - trivial enough - and am testing now. The GWX-2 file loads uneventfully now.

A single patrol from Kiel with GWX-2 was also uneventful.

Apologies to all GWX-2 users for my blunder. A replacement mod 'RealWeatherFix2.zip' will be available from the previous filefront address by the end of today (UK time).

Will this work with GWX 1.3?:D

Dueling Weather Mods
 

:rock: :rock: :rock:

I have been using SH3Weather for some time now. How do these mods compare and are they compatible with SH3? Would I need to remove SH3Weather before using these new mods?:shifty:

RealWeatherFix2 released - now compatible with GWX-2
 

I have placed 'RealWeatherFix2.zip' mod on File Front.

I've tested this with GWX-2 and NYGM, and completed a single patrol with both uneventfully. The mod certainly should work with earlier variants of GWX, since the original RealWeatherFix mod was successful.

Problem (with GWX-2) solved! (I hope).

Thanks. I am looking forward to trying it on my next patrol.

I wonder what it will feel like playing SH3/GWX2 without having to stock up a dramamine before leaving France? :)
