Cumulus X Issues

[DB Dronoff 0]

Team,

I have installed Cusulus X twice and have found out when it is activated, I spawn into a mountain, regardless of where I choose to enter MFS X at.

I have installed the Cumulus X program into my main MFS X folder. I also have REX Weather installed, but so far I have not read where this should be an issue.

Any ideas?

Also, is soaring possible without Cumulus X?

Thanks!

Silly question but do you have a joystick/controller button assigned to Slew Mode? Recall this one from some time ago but can't remember the cause/remedy.

You could try the SOAR forum further down as Peter L lurks down there and they have a section for CumulusX.

No buttons assigned to slew mode. I have found the forum area you mentioned and have posted in there also.

Thanks!

Hey, you probably have an outdated version of CumulusX I had the same problem. I jused to spass out over the entire area. Updating CumulusX worked just fine and I have had no problems since.

Unlike Cumulus X, FSX does not provide the option of flying in ridge lift, as it simply is not generated. However, if you tick the thermal box (in scenery I think) it generates useable thermals randomly. However, they are not very realistic and simply provide you with lift up to a rediculous altitude. Once, before discovering Cumulus X, I climbed in one of the FSX thermals up to about 20,000' before getting bored!
