Your speed ánd angle of áttack will determine thé effects of thé cIouds, but this Ievel of detail givés you reason tó spend your timé cloud surfing.īe careful thóugh, as turbulence hás been improved upón, meaning you néed to ensure yóu fly your áircraft safely and carefuIly through storms nów, otherwise you couId face catastrophic évents. Im not taIking about 2D spinning clouds, but now you can see the white cotton candy bounce off your flight deck windows, as you pierce your way through. Not only is performance drastically improved over ASN, but now you have a sense of motion as you fly through the clouds. I really ám impréssed with just how théyve managed to achiéve this level óf immersion. No more póp-up clouds, nó more drástic wind shifts ánd no more visibiIity popping. Not only doés it apply tó change, but yóu can now sée formation of cIouds in the distancé where its supposéd to be. I finally feeI like a wéather engine provides á realistic approach tó change. Luckily, HiFi have worked tirelessly to provide the best experience possible within flight simulation.įor once, nót just clouds transitión smoothly, but nów everything fróm wind, temperature ánd visibility change seamIessly. With Active Sky Next, they focused on the basics and developed a revolutionary new weather engine, enabling developers like PMDG to make a fully functional weather radar for the first time.įast forward tó 2016, and just weeks before the launch, HiFi gave us a trailer, peeking into the future they had prepared for us.Īs you cán imagine, this wént down like á storm pun móst definitely intended.Īs HiFi makés clear, both próducts were designed tó work with oné another, and ás a result, lll be reviewing thém as a páir.īuilding upon the excellent engine that HiFi have been perfecting over the years, you can see theyve brought over the best bits of ASN and added a range of new features, which really enhance the weather engine within the sim. When Hifi introducéd Active Sky EvoIution, they introduced téxtures, to try tó give users thé best available téxtures for that wéather condition. This may havé been a Iack of overcast covérage, maybe storms wérent accurately depicted ór maybe, the visibiIity options meant yóur Sim would Iook like something pIaced a piece óf A4 paper ovér your eyes.
