HiFi released Service Update 2 (SU2) for ActiveSky FS (ASFS), delivering a comprehensive package of improvements and full compatibility with the latest MSFS2024 SU2 (1.4.13.0 or later). This update enhances the realism and control of weather simulation, with new options for cloud density adjustments, direct wind control, and ground snow handling. A key focus has been refining turbulence behavior and addressing unit inconsistencies, especially with wind speeds and precipitation visibility across different sim versions and language settings.
SU2 also introduces improved cloud rendering with reduced graininess, enhanced toolbar integration for both MSFS2020 and 2024, and better handling of historical weather settings. The update ensures smoother transitions, more accurate wind depiction, and finer control for users looking to tailor their atmospheric experience. Active Sky for MSFS2024/20 is currently on sale 20% OFF at SIMMARKET until June 02nd 23:59 CET.
