default mapmods - snow in normandy? - vampire_pilot - 11.07.2008

Hi,

I am using the vp default maps Mod (which I enjoy very much!), now I am flying a mission in Normandy (load1.ini) in June, weather is tunderstorm but instead of rain I have snow falling.
is this a known issue and is there a fix?

fix is rather simple ...for any map .... look for month and temperature data in load.ini ( of desired map)

if you don't want snow ... make sure month is set to 4 ....10

example:

[MAP]
ColorMap = map_c.tga
HeightMap = fly_Z_map_h.tga
SmallMap = map_M.tga
TypeMap = fly_Z_map_T.tga
FarMap = map_F.tga
ReflMap = map_R.tga

[LIGHT]
LandLight = LandLight.mat
CloudShadows = CloudShadows.mat

[MAP2D]
ed_m01.tga
ed_m02.tga

[WORLDPOS]
CAMOUFLAGE = SUMMER
MONTH=7
DECLIN = 0
PRESSURE = 745
TEMPERATURE = 25

cheers
Z

What about Temp? Should we change that to or does it matter? or is the 10 for the Temp...

no, because it is the month of the year that matters, the temperature only counts as a vlue regarding engine performance (I assume)

from april (4) to october (10) you get rain, in novemvber (11) to february (2) you get snow. easy once you know

if you set temp below 0 on summer maps you'll get funny texture over water ( perfect mode)

temp determines water/ice conditions ( among with other variables )
