    Thanks for the info. I tried a few things and even checked for any additional ports that rF2 dedicated may be listening.
    To be honest I haven't a clue what I've done to resolve it, but at least when it was working I can see the plugin in the named pipe list now.
    Also, the Auto Save feature now works too! So double bonus.
    Better now leave it and not fiddle in case I break it.
    Thanks for your assistance Stefan.

    Guys,

    I have same ChalkyWIS' problem but I can't solve...

    CustomPlugins set 9 and the plugin 9 too... Says connection timeout (DarkSky and OWM)

    Pipelist don't appears the plugin listed...

    Since I changed the server from W Server 2012 to W Server 2016 the plugin not works..

    Any ideia?

    I don't know.. I verify this in Server PC..

    EDIT:

    SOLVED! It was vcredist 140! Thanks @lagg for info (and the plugin creator!) :)

    PS: Have you an information about track temperature? If there's some feature (or other plugin) about this...

    It's not possible.
    The rF2 doesn't allow currently that

    no change - applying data skipped means that the weather is the same than 3 minutes before and the plugin doesn't have to change anything in the rF2 server.
    It's ok.
    The plugin will change the weather in the rF2 server, when the weather changes

    Hello and thanks for the job.

    I try to install the plugin and it seem to works, but not.

    I copied the .dll to my bin64\plugin and rfactor recognize it, the server is connect but in the game i don't see the rain

    I tried to change the option simple weather to scripted, but the result is the same

    Perhaps I forgott something?

    Thanks in advance.

    Check if rf2WeatherPlugin.dll is in ...\rFactor 2\Bin64\Plugins\ and launch rF2
    Check if appears a section called rf2WeatherPlugin.dll in ...\rFactor 2\UserData\player\CustomPluginVariables.json
    If the section doesn't exist, install the vc140 redist, launch again rF2 and check if appears the section in CustomPluginVariables.json.

    Could you make this also set the time of day as well based on real time? I would say have it as a toggle option :)

    Have a dedi server on windows 8.1
    And its litraly just got rf2 on it.
    (I dont play from this pc)

    I have the rf2weather.dll in rf2 bin64/plugins
    I have my api key iv made a new mod just incase it was my other mod and its still not working.
    Vc140 redist is up to date as i saw above i made sure it was. Iv loaded rf2 and closed checked the custompluginvariables and nothing shows up what am i missing. In the rf2weather plugin download there is also 2 other files ionic.Zilb.dll and rf2GeoData do they need to go somewere.

    I'm glad it's working.
    The plugin makes a call to the weather provider every 3 min and if the weather changes, it's applied to the server at this moment.
