On request of BuckeyeBob, here is the newest version of ME 1.4.2link Revision changes: 1) Weather Manager (WM) - added "special treatment" for two new BB's Mist and Fog files - thanks to BuckeyeBob for his continual weather magic; 2) fixed ME error caused by non-English Windows regional settings (unrecognized decimal point); 3) WM - Added a test version (WIP) of weather overlay map icons to Weather Manager (just be warned - the weather forecast is not reliable but what is difference with todays meteorological forecast ? Thank you very much to BuckeyeBob for his tremendous work of assigning a weather icons to each of (104 at the present time) weather files. Enjoy!
To anyone that uses the cloud mod, I highly recommend updating to this version of the ME. The current cloud mod has a few clouds that were specifically designed with this version of the ME in mind. Also, in a few days I plan to update the cloud mod to version 2.7. The new clouds in 2.7 will look their best only if the user updates to version 1.4.2 of the ME.
Note: the cloud mod can still be used without using the ME. However, some of the additional features and graphics improvements that have been part of the cloud mod since version 2.5 are unavailable without the ME.

Thank you Triple-J and BuckeyeBob. I can't fly without using your mods anymore. I want to see the weather girl in ver. 1.5!

Just starting to try it out now. Flew two missions and things look good so far. Problem for me is that I am just tuning a G-sync monitor so I am not sure I have the best setting at the moment to properly evaluate your work.

Cracking idea, Fullofit! Do you have anyone in particular in mind? Maybe her: [img]https://goo.gl/images/4xyaHc[/img]
Robert, I hope to have a new version for you to test on your brand-spanking new monitor in a few days. Not a lot of big changes, but I have managed to reduce the banding issue in a few of the heavier cloud types, at least. However, cloud popping is another matter...

Triple-J, that’s awesome! I was going to PM you with this issue I encountered yesterday, but it’s fixed already. What a service! Thank you!

WOFF UE_Mission Editor v 1.4.7 released - ME1.4.7 This version fixes some small bugs, adds few enhancements and is fully compatible with the latest BuckeyeBob's Optional cloud mod v2.8. Thx Bob for his devotion to cloud modding, suggestions and patience with ME testing. Enjoy!
Thanks Triple-J and BB, now go and start enjoying the Holidays. Yes, start early. You deserve it!

There are several enhancements users will like with this update, I think. First, the weather overview window has been updated to give more information about the weather forecast, as well as current cloud conditions.
Second, on the main screen, Jara has added some pop-ups to give additional information about cloud conditions over different parts of the map, as well as information about distances for each waypoint on your mission.
Third, several "under the hood" enhancements, including one that really improves the look of several foggy and misty clouds in the cloud mod.
Jara really does deserve an early holiday!

Thanks as always for your continued work on this brilliant ME Triple J

Mission Editor HotFix ME1.4.8 Althought not critical, version 1.4.8 fixes the issue when one of BuckeyeBob's cloud file ("OFF_BB Overcast with Light Saturated Clouds.xml") has not been recognized by Mission Editor and kept unmodified. Thx BuckeyeBob for pointing it to me. My apologies for this inconvenience. Installation Instructions: Copy, pls, above executable file to your Mission Editor folder overwriting the old executable. Enjoy!
Thank you again Jara for this outstanding mod and for your continued updates and improvements on it. This one along with BuckeyeBob's cloud/fog mod are both "must haves" IMHO.

Jara, I haven't forgot about keeping your "readme" file updated. I just haven't had the time. I will do so as soon as I can and then forward it to you as usual.
Cheers mate.
