Did you copy SH3Weather.exe into your SH3 root folder and run it from there? Did you get the confirmation "updated" message in SH3Weather after you pressed "GENERATE"? Were you in base before starting a new patrol (SH3Weather does not work mid-patrol)?

At the moment (that is, prior to SH3Cmdr R2.6), you should run SH3Weather.exe first, then SH3Cmdr after SH3Weather has closed. Don't forget to backup your campaign .mis files prior to first ever use of SH3Weather, just in case, as it doesn't back them up.

SH3Cmdr R2.6 will automatically run SH3Weather (if it exists) just prior to launching SH3, so it saves you the need to run both individually. Hopefully Skweetis will resurface at some point, because, whilst SH3Cmdr tells SH3Weather what the date and Flotilla are, SH3Weather hasn't been coded to accept and use the information. If it was, then SH3Cmdr would be able to run SH3Weather "silently" without the need for any user interaction.
