COMPATIBLE WITH
All available (even already installed) cloud textures
At the moment we are not aware of any incompatibilities at all.
In my opinion, the best weather program for P3D4. Very easy to setup, no performance hit whatsoever. I'm guessing that this is because you aren't installing all kinds of textures. It uses the existing game textures (I think?). P3D4 looks beautiful out of the box, so no need for extra textures (again this is just my opinion).
You simply download the latest weather one time before your flight, start your flight, and it will keep the weather up to date for your entire flight. I simply forget that it is still running.
Importing a flight plan allows you to view all of the winds and temperatures at each waypoint.
If you run FS Captain, this program integrates very well with it.
Support is great, and response is fast.
