Mac, Linux and 32-bit XPlane / Windows versions are not supported.ASXP also features an optional high-performance photo-realistic cloud texture replacement with a simple texture installation wizard.ASXP features high-performance cloud depiction with a focus on conditions accuracy, utilizing the X-Plane internal cloud rendering via a hybrid API approach, with two different modes available.We expect our visual cloud rendering replacement technology to debut in Q4 2019, subject to change based on many factors.We have put our previous XPlane visual cloud rendering replacement efforts on hold (until next year) due to performance considerations and changing API environment/tools that are not yet finalized.

Not a complete visual cloud rendering replacement: Use any device/browser to connect with Active Sky over your network and view and control the weather Optional, for better ground handling in crosswind conditions while preserving headwind/tailwind component for performance accuracy Uses internal XPlane 11.2x/11.3x cloud depiction for maximum performance and smoothness, with multiple weather depiction modes including theme cell “real weather” mode and global static mode – VR compatible and optimized! Īn evolved version of the Active Sky platform brings the core features that made Active Sky the leading weather engine for other platforms: Advanced weather synthesis and interpolation, high-resolution global winds aloft, realistic air and atmosphere effects, a comprehensive weather data network, integrated visual mapping and planning, and much, much more Īctive Sky ATIS and Flightwatch are available at any time by listening on 122.00, 122.02 or 122.03 for closest station, actual/current interpolated conditions and destination weather reports, respectively

Replaces internal XPlane turbulence and air effects, providing enhanced turbulence, drafts, thermals, terrain-based wind effects, surface friction, gusts, variability, wake turbulence, microbursts and more Using a hybrid weather depiction interface through XPlane 11’s weather API, a realistic, high-performance and high-fidelity weather experience is realized. Active Sky XP (ASXP) brings the popular award-winning Active Sky weather engine to the XPlane platform for the first time.
