weather controlled cannot change

hi
why every time i try to change season cannot but weather controlled
is this normal or some thing is wrong
-
@sheref it’s locked to weather controlled. You now have to change the date of the mission to change the season. The temps will also change to match
-
No, from the user manual, I think we should able to select a season but there is some setting that is forcing it to “Weather Controlled”.
From page 3-34 of the user manual for 4.36:
Season
You can select one of four seasons directly or if it should be weather
controlled. In this case it is automatically selected by the date and is
depending on latitude.
➢ Weather Controlled (default)
➢ Summer
➢ Fall
➢ Winter
➢ Spring
The different seasons are mainly processed through shaders, thus shaders must be activated to change
the seasons; otherwise only tiles will change with seasons.I have checked my shaders are active in the config program but I cannot select a season. It always reverts to “Weather Controlled”.

you cant use the option in SETUP, you need to setup the correct date to get the correct season
the main point is to get the temperatures and atmospheric conditions matching with the season.
If you reall want to use the shitty old season design that gives only GFX and not atmosphere, you can use
set g_bDateControlSeason 0

@Mav-jp OK but can’t selecting for example “Spring” give us the appropriate temperatures and atmospherics for Spring ?

no, you need to do it with the DATE
doing it in GRAPHICS SETUP changes only the GFX shaders
that’s the whole point.
what is the problem to setup the date ?

OK going with what you said, let’s say I load a training mission, is there a way to change the date in the training mission (please forgive the noob question) ?

no, because a traning mission is supposed to be flown in the date and seasons set up by the guy who creates the traning mission
or you can rename it to .tac instead of .trn and will get access to the weather page

OK thanks, that’s what I suspected.
