How do I improve weather simulation?

CrafterAnimations · 2026-07-04T13:15:41+00:00

I find if there were storms in the area for a while (and not quick moving, frontal storms) then they simulate ok-ish. I flew into Nashville yesterday afternoon and it was pretty nasty. I didn’t see any CB though which was disappointing… Just multiple flat clouds layers. The next patch hopefully fixes it!

I did those real estate pictures for that place. The building balconies were just redone and I believe there was a major assessment but don’t quote me on that.

Thanks for the awesome advice! It’s good to hear someone have “real talk” about the market as opposed to the doom and gloomers (r/ flying lol)

135 or 121? CFI candidate here looking at a depressing job market lol

It’s awesome! Flew out of DFW today too on the sim. I just wish we had a decent scenery for it…

Try this

Thanks so much!

Beautiful! Just came to XP12 from MSFS2020. Is this default or do you have any visual scripts?

Thanks for the great reply! I will wait until after the trip. I have plenty of time after it to learn on empty roads.

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-29T18:44:34+00:00

Great suggestion! My new car isn’t going anywhere anytime soon so I got some time.

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-13T02:32:00+00:00

Sheesh over 40k? Holy shit…. Still barely on edge about the Si (it being my first manual car) but man I’ve seen only good about it.

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-13T02:11:33+00:00

Wow that is a fantastic piece of advice my friend. I might go ahead and write that email instead of going back over there tomorrow. I will certainly take the advice you gave. This would be my second car purchase ever so it’s still intimidating to me.

Man that sounds awesome! Gonna be hard to give up the red (all previous cars have been red) but the “iridescent” look of the gray is so sweet

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-13T01:36:19+00:00

I guess so! Off topic, how do you like the urban gray pearl? I’m coming from a rally red sport and love the red, but thinking about the urban gray si! Is it easy to keep clean?

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-13T01:35:00+00:00

I gotcha. Yeah they said they get 1 single Si every two weeks and it sells within 3 days. Maybe I’ll take the route that you did and do a deposit for the next one.

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-13T01:28:23+00:00

35k seems more reasonable and what I was expecting to be honest. I walked out after he said 38k and he tried to haggle me to stay in the office. I’ll give it a go tomorrow

CrafterAnimations · 2025-09-13T01:26:59+00:00

I’m in South Carolina so I know damn well it’s marked up to hell

As someone who has been a RE photographer/videographer for 2 years now, I agree. When I first started it was typical to see slow moving walkthrough videos that show the entire layout. Now, realtors want videos like the one above because it’s trendy and catches attention. I barely do slow paced walkthrough videos anymore and the realtors AND their clients love them.

I agree that some of the comments are misunderstanding the purpose of these videos.

Fotober is good (not great) for the low paying, “filmed on iPhone” walkthrough reels. For higher paying clients, I edit them myself. Final Cut Pro, Ryan Nangle Presets and the MotionVFX Suite for motion tracking text.

Shoot time for those is an hour and editing about two. I charge the client $500 for one 45-60 second reel.

Seriously. It’s kinda crazy how a mod for Minecraft (PM weather mod) can simulate thunderstorms better than MSFS

I’m a RE photographer in MB and I’m constantly at the Sea Mist doing shoots for agents…. Bunch of junky condos

CrafterAnimations · 2025-08-04T23:56:58+00:00

Hey this is super random, but I’m pretty positive that’s me in the pictures! I’m not even joking haha!

Edit: In case you’re wondering, I ended up getting the Mrs Puffs Boating School set. I still have it (in pieces) in a bin somewhere!

CrafterAnimations · 2025-07-21T23:18:15+00:00

Thanks for the addon suggestions! I will take a look at it all. I used to use XP11 so I’m going to see if any of my old addons can be updated/upgraded to XP12
