FSX ORBX Weather Themes Downloadl
Clarabella Doom
Second, there must be something with the new ORBX files that's blocking all of the other 3rd party addons. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times and nothing is working. AS16 half worked for about 15 minutes once and that's it. It wasn't showing local weather info when I loaded in, but it was asking me to load a flight plan to get weather data and it appeared under the Addons tab, but then disappeared. The REX upper level clouds loaded twice and that's it. PrecipitiFX hasn't worked since OLC was installed. I tried loading a flight in the rain and it wasn't there. I looked under the main weather section in FSX and now there's 'orbx weather 1-7' in there. Could that be what's blocking everything else now? How did ORBX install a weather system without a prompt for me to disable it? This is getting really frustrating.
After messing around some more, I'm convinced that it's ORBX that's interfering with the 3rd party addons. Everything that is NOT weather related works fine (Accu-Feel, UTX, mesh, airports) and everything that IS weather related is not (AS16, REX, PricipitiFX). This started with the OLC install which included the appearance of the 'orbx weather 1-7' options in FSX.
See what that does. Regarding the orbx weather themes, they do not influence at all. I assume you have weather set to Customize rather than an Option since you have been using AS16 to generate weather?
I tried turning off all of the OLC scenery entries to disable the whole thing but it doesn't help any. Previously, disabling the NAMERICA1 & 2 files and leaving OLC Base enabled would solve the texture loading problem, so there's a problem with OLC loading its own scenery and texture files. Now it's not even loading any of the Base or Vector textures. Everything is back to default. All of Washington is a desert. Turned OLC back on and same problem. There also seems to be no way to disable the orbx weather so I can't even test that to see if it's affecting anything. Previously, I could just leave it in 'Fair Weather' and AS16 and REX would do their thing. When I put it in 'ActiveSky' weather, it doesn't load anything at all, the entire sky is blank.
I'm not sure where the orbx weather came from, but I don't see a way to disable it to test and see if that's causing a problem. It would be one thing if it was one addon not working, but every weather related addon isn't working and every land based one is, and them not working started when orbx weather appeared.
The problem is that the weather themes somehow got duplicated in a few of the regions (probably including OpenLC areas, but I don't have any of those). All you need is the copies in "Orbx Libraries", so the (temporary) solution is to open each region folder and delete the "Weather" subfolder inside it. (You may want to check if theme 7 is present in the "Orbx Libraries" folder, I think it was included in some more recent regions only).
Can confirm this works with SU10 and ORBX mesh. You must delete the two files relating to this airport from the orbx mesh (default and airport files). Great place! I usually cheat and make the weather summer time so I can land here in anything I want. Not sure where the author is but I hope they come back, update some scenery and keep making more.

39 weather themes for FS2004.A complete revision of the previous releases, weather1 & weather2.15 new themes have been added.File sizes have been greatly reduced.By Adrian Shortall
File Description:
This new weather theme sets the weather to a windy, cool day with a few clouds. There are slight variations over the whole area, and also detailed profiles of winds and temperatures aloft. The weather data in this theme is a mixture of real data (Melbourne and Wellington)and my own creation. (Yes, this is indeed a weather theme that works like the default FS2004 weather themes).
