If you want to wait on weatherchange like a year go on.
For me is no way to play with bug.
You can see in my latest post how it has to be when the simact properly works.

One do not need higher waves an all the other stuff.

If it works right, in real time on bridge(f4) you can see waves changing frequently. And it looks great every bit to see it change

Yeah I know a lot of people have had problems with the stock file. But strangely hasn't happened to me; four days max which for the North Atlantic is easily believable.
Even a little longer is. But no doubt the weather in the game (among other things) is a mess even after patching. I.e, the fog affect/graphic is terrible.
Modders did the best that can be done though I think.

So when it says the four days wind 4 speed 0 all the time.it a bug

But do how you please.....

Umm... I sail from time to time on the ocean and I can tell you the wind does not necessarily have to change several times a day. In certain areas you can have the same wind direction for days or even weeks: Passat / monsun zones. Even further north I'm pretty sure you can have a week of the same wind direction, think constant westerly strong winds in the north Atlantic. Maybe a subsimmer from the coast can chime in.

A wind speed of 0 for long periods seems unreasonable except for the so called horse latitudes between 25° and 35°.

On a scala from 0 to 360 how realistic is it to not change even one degree, please....

[YellowFin]

Of course it changes by a few degrees constantly. As you're in a submarine and not in a sail boat it doesn't matter so much however. Also, consider that somehow these values have to be generated by the computer. Expecting a complex and realistic weather simulation inside a retail market submarine game from 2005 is a bit too much. Also, IRL the 1 WO or whoever took the weather observation wouldn't give you a wind direction in degrees every minute. Please.

My point is that stiebler simact works.
For some reason, on a super mod it's buged....

It is simulating how good it can for a 2005 game.
But not on the super mod.
Don't no what you try to explain to me?

I've never tried his file on 1.4b. That's interesting; it works differently on that vs a super mod version of the game ?

How does the weather act in the two examples ? If it's more realistic in 1.4b with his file, I definitely want to check that out.
