White clouds / storm

Changes in the weather system from the latest FP update.

Since this update, the white clouds do not disappear during the "storm" preset. The atmosphere becomes darker, but there is no longer any difference between the clouds during the "clear" and "storm" presets. So, it rains, thunders, lightnings... but the sky is filled with white clouds.

I have tried everything with the settings in the 'storm' preset, but I just can't get rid of those white clouds anymore during a storm.

Is there a fix for that ?

Hey, my sky  looks like this (try to remove old storm preset so after plugin reload it will generate a new one with correct values

I have the same issue. When i unload the Weather plugin and load a vanilla storm via console, it looks like this for me:


This is during daytime. Quite the difference. Any chance you can make your plugin do the same?

You are using client's side command the "weather.load Storm" ?
I can't replicate this one because it overlap current weather like you have server weather + clientside weather

Client side? I use "weather.load storm" in the server's console / rcon, it changes the weather immediately for everyone on the server. The picture was taken on my 2nd server that no longer has the weather plugin loaded. Here are two more examples that make the difference clearer, both vanilla weathers loaded via server console:

How it should look a.k.a. vanilla with no modifications
console:

weather.load clear

console:

weather.load storm

2nd example

console:

weather.load clear

console:

weather.load storm

Your plugin used to do similar storms up until last forced wipe, when Facepunch enabled volumetric clouds by default.

Other server, with loaded weather plugin, after the volumetric clouds change:

[Weather] New Weather Preset - Clear (changed via plugin UI)

[Weather] New Weather Preset - Storm (changed via plugin UI)

This is after I followed your recommendation to delete the preset(s) and let the plugin re-generate new ones. I waited 5 minutes to let the weather transition - it is already in full swing on that picture, thunder and lightning come, but out of the blue sky most of the time (hard to capture in a screenshot...)

This is happening as i said since the last force wipe (September 4th)

My bad, didn't know there also was a server command. Will look into it.

The client side command that i meant is the command that makes changes only for you when you type it in the F1 console.
