Question about Time Compression and Weather changes

Magic1111 · 12-16-09, 03:48 AM

Hello!

Does anybody know, has a higher degree of Time compression (TC) than 1024 an effect / influence on the frequency of the weather change?

I use the RealWeatherFix and have the TC set via SH3 Commander up to my personal maximum 4096 (Navimap View).

For example, when I crossing the atlantic with TC at 4096, changes the weather too often and too quickly, sometimes up to 3 times in 24 Hours !
Have observed that even with 2048 TC !

With other words: Changes the weather more quickly and more frequently, when I play with more than 1024 time compression?

I hope, you know what I mean and sorry for my bad english !

Any Ideas ?

Thank you and best regards,
Magic

I noted your post a couple of days ago, and started to answer. I really had not noticed your problem with time compression.
My problem always has been the reverse: endless bad weather and 15m/s winds.
If changing the weather with high time compression works, you have made a great contribution to the community.
I'll give it a try later, but I want to try the new Mediterranean Sea add on first.
Your English is very good, concise, and to the point.
I would give you an A-.

If you really want to see bad language, you should see my French or German.

As with the above post, ive always had the exact reverse problem, anything higher than 128x and the weather just kind of sticks, worst i ever had was a whole 2 in-game weeks of 15m/s seas with heavy rain/fog.
Ive never tried the real weather fix though so maybe thats the culprit for your speedy changes.

If you want to see bad language, listen to my friend when he's had a few drinks. Potty mouth.

Hello Guys !

Many thanks for your Replies and your opinion about my english !

What I mean was, the weather on 2048 or 4096 TC changed too quickly and too often, but always between bad and very bad !

Fine weather is the absolute exception!

And this I have observed, even without the "RealWeatherFix"!

I would be very grateful for further reports, whether a higher TC than 1024 really speeds up the change of weather!

Thank you and best regards,
Magic

The best done so far have been incorporated into the NYGM and GWX mods. They help a bit, but the basic weather algorithm is poor in the unfixable files of SH3 (and SH4).

Rubini has a work around: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ht=weather:up:
