Hello
The weather change does not work with monogame versions (Rev93,95 and 96) nor with version X1.3.1-342-gf793f152f. Is this normal?
With the stable version 1.3.1.4328 it works
Here is the code

Events (
			EventCategoryTime (
				EventTypeTime ( )
				ID ( 1 )
				Activation_Level ( 1 )
				Outcomes (
					ORTSWeatherChange ( "Brouillard Tombant" )
				)
				Name ( JMF_PCA_Essai_meteo )
				Time ( 0 )
				ORTSWeatherChange (
					Name ( "Brouillard Tombant" )
					ORTSFog ( 80 50 ) 

Best Regards

Hello,

the weather change is working fine, but the speed of the trains seems to have an influence on the precipitation on front view. At the rear, everything seems normal.

What is the problem?

If my guess is correct, it's not elementary to solve this. Raindrops and snow flakes are generated within a "box" that moves with the camera. Raindrops need some time to fall from the top of the box down to the bottom. If your camera runs fast, most of raindrops and snow flakes are still near the top of the box in front of you, and so you won't see many of them.

My question to the original poster is have you modified the size of the precipitation box?
The log would show this but . . . no log . . .

Since I have the same problem as Pascal, here is the information about the precipitation box

Quote

PrecipitationBoxHeight = 100
PrecipitationBoxLength = 500
PrecipitationBoxWidth = 500

How to change these parameters, possibly
I just saw how to change the zones

Hello
The weather change does not work with monogame versions (Rev98) not with version U2021.05.06-0921.
With the stable version 1.3.1.4328 it works OK .

I found the issue and have to decide which is the cleanest way to solve it. It occurs only if the activity is created with TSRE5, and what disturbs the actual versions of OR is this line

ORTSWeatherChange ( "ThisIsANameForThisWeatherChange" )

added by TSRE5 within the Outcomes block.
If this line, which is unuseful for OR and is useful only for TSRE5, is removed, the weather change works.
