The very first time that I used ActiveRadar, it worked just fine. But now, the radar won't show any of the clouds around me, non of them.
Has anybody had this issue? Or does anyone has any ideas of how to make it work again?
I'm sure that I haven't erased any file.
Thanks in advance

MW: ActiveRadar worked in the end of my flight, though I didn't touch a thing. Clouds were displaying, etc....
BUT .. my PC froze and when de-frozed, I was not getting anymore above 1 FPS ... in the end, this thing crashed. Might be a bug or something, because I had never gotten below 1.5 FPS and those times it wouldn't last anymore than 5 minutes. But today, 1 FPS with no sound, no traffic, slides all the way down, only AS running.
What's going on with FS ???

are you running the latest build? B175 is the latest and it works the best.

The concept of the weather radar is commonly misunderstood. A WX radar does NOT show clouds, it shows precipitation only. So having clouds around you doesnt mean they will appear in the radar. Instead if its raining there, you will get that displayed in the radar.
Hope this can help!

David: I'm using build 174 (I just checked www.hifisim.com and a B175 does not show up )
Nick: I didn't know about what you just told me, might that be why my clouds are not showing up?
Thanks everyone

If there is no precipitation of any kind around you, nothing will be showed up in the radar.

Look on the forum on www.avsim.com. The next build is there, or a link rather. Fixes a lot of the AR problems.

Keech is absolutely right. I just started AS and set my plane in NY JFK as we are getting a downpour right now and sure enough, all of the precip is right there on AS's radar. I thought that this thing was not working either but there it is.
Best Regards.
