    What kind of coordinates should we use for Brookdale? Darlington or Bristol? Or somewhere between them? :D

    Hi,
    Did you succeed or do you still need help? If yes, please detail exactly what you want to do.

    thanks

    Static HMI rFactor2WorldWeather.exe updated v2.1.2
    - fix 7Timer, the www.7Timer.com no more exists and move to ftp.astron.ac.cn
    - Wind speed correctly handled when in mph for uk.weather.com (The data is an approximation as RF2 await an integer in m/s)

    - No the tool update sereral wet files and directories (but only the existing files - the tool still not create wet file if not already exists)
    --> i will try to make another update to read MAS files and automatically extract unexisting wet files.

    Does the API and RF2 actually handle wind ? I honestly didn't think it was working in RF2 yet.

    Thanx Gerald.
    This ftp.astcon.ac.cn in most cases gives us different weather conditions than the uk.weather.com, I tried a bunch of tracks.

    also added: Brookdale (ISI 3PA) v1.0 - Darlington weather until a real Darlington comes (if ever...)

    I was wondering if anybody else using Gerald's toolset for realtime weather on a dedicated server is experiencing quick changes of lighting conditions and/or cloud coverage? We are using a smoothing value of 120 and until a few builds ago had quick and drastic changes only at the beginning of a session when realtime weather was injected for the first time. Recently, we saw several harsh changes over the duration of a session. Anybody else experiencing these?

    We too, independently of the smoothing value.

    Gerald, do you think this could be due to changes in Internals Plugin v7 over v6, released with Build 982?

    Anybody else having problems with Weather Server today? We get an 'unexpected error' on all three servers we currently host: '504 Gatewaytimeout' on the remote server.

    Seems to have been a temporary issue, no more error messages now.

    I wanted to run the 1992 F1 mod and use the actual weather at the tracks from the days the races were run. Weather channel doesn't appear to go back much before the early 2000s. This info seems to be available from weather underground. Is the basic weather tool (non server) locked into weather channel?

    EDIT: Well, it appears data on a day to day basis goes back a long way for U.S. locations, but that's not necessarily true for all locations in the world. Monaco, for example, doesn't go back past about 1996. So my question is irrelevant because the data may simply not exist.

    Since the new build, we are experiencing huge lag and connection losts when the real time weather is updating. I don't know why...
    And I confirm the light transition problem.
