I've followed this thread with interest, if you do a search you may find other threads started by me about the weather.
I've done lots of tests and played around with the files etc and basically come up with the same results as above without using any generator. I place the player sub with no other ships using the mission editor somewhere on the map, then I go hunting ships.
The ships appear from the campaign files, so this made me look at those files, you will notice there is also a weather reference in those files too, but the values are all set to zero.
If you leave your sub motionless and do a TC and keep looking every now and again you will see the first thing to change will be the wind speed, then the clouds, in a matter of 3-4 days I had varied weather.
I think one of the main problems is only having 2 cloud types, if we could change this whether it be eye candy or not it will make a big difference.
I made a few different clouds myself as I got bored with the stock ones, I manually change these from time to time but it would be good if this could be randomised.
I'm an avid flight simmer too and also had thoughts of (if only we had the weather from that in SH3) how much better it would be.

Please understand I'm not knocking what you are doing but I seem to be getting the same results without the generator.
