Status: offline 		Written this elsewhere in my mod thread, but I can't see any weather.
2 reinstalls and opening unmodded scenarios, no effect.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
It's really frustrating.
(Running 1.05)

Can't see in the game?
Can't see weather on a train?
Elaborate please to keep me sane!

Thanks Dr Seuss.
Unfortunately most of the above.
First I thought it may have been an alpha/ opacity issue with my terrain or tiles.png files.
Then I noticed it was not working in the unchanged scenario folders.
Did a fresh install into the default folders.
Same issue: no weather.
All other overlays work fine.

What software are you using to do the images?

Are you sure you have the weather toggle on?

Status: offline 		You are using PNG files for the weather correct?
You are putting them in the scenario you want the custom images?

Post up the error log so I can get a hint at what is happening. I wonder if this is an access issue.

The error only occurs once.
When I restart it's gone, but the weather issue remains.
Will get that error log.

(When reinstalling, I have also cleaned out any references to warplan and Kraken software via regedit.)

Status: offline 		I can concur that with 1.00.05 and a brand new fresh install before updating to 1.00.05 using Magpius's mod made the weather not show up, even though his mod did not have a weather.png file in it.

I then removed all of his .png files form the 1939 folder, and it reverted back to the normal map but the weather still does not show up in game.

I even moved the weather.png file from the folder called "_New Custom Images" into the 1939 campaign folder and this didn't do anything either.

I think you are right in thinking it's an access issue, for some reason the game is no longer looking for the weather.png file

As far as his png files they all look fine and work in the game and he never modded the weather.png file to begin with.

Status: offline 		OK.... I think I have some idea what is happening, for some reason there isn't any adverse weather, everything is showing "clear" and so that would be the reason there isn't any weather graphic being shown.


I've started every campaign, ran them through a few turns from the hotseat and no matter what the weather is clear in every hex every turn, this is the issue. Is it possible to turn the weather on or off for a campaign?

Status: offline 		If you are meaning the button on the very top row, the one that is controlled by the hotkey W then yes, I've clicked it many times.

Please understand Alvaro that when I move the cursor over EVERY hex the weather in the window at the bottom left shows "CLEAR".

The problem isn't in the .png, the issue is that in EVERY campaign, in EVERY hex the weather is CLEAR. And since every hex has clear weather there will be no weather graphic shown either way.

What could become corrupted to make every hex and every campaign clear?

As far as my installation, the main game folder is under D:\Warplan and the Campaign folders are under Documents\mygames\warplan\Campaigns

Status: offline 		Yes I downloaded the game from the matrix servers, installed and updated to version 1.00.05. I added the custom .png files from Magpius to the 1939 scenario. Now there is ONLY CLEAR WEATHER, in ALL of the SCENARIOS. Basically I have no weather at all except CLEAR.

The issue is that I have clear weather in every hex and in ever scenario.

I then tried the Beta .061 and made sure to download the scenarios associated with the beta, no change, still every scenario has CLEAR weather in EVERY hex.

I am using Windows 10 on a PC.
