Please download Pure 0.180 again. I fixed some bugs and uploaded it again. What you experience is a lua code error, therefore it is so slow. This is fixed in the new upload....

Peter Boese updated Sol with a new update entry:

Small change in Sol 2.5 controller to use for challenges

Please note, that update is all about the new Content Manger and CSP preview from Ilja's Patreon page. If you don't use this, you don't need to update Sol!

Hello,

With the new Content Manager (0.8.25) and CSP preview (0.1.80p218) the selection of the now called weather style is changed:

You don't need to select a weather controller in weatherFX settings. You select the weather in the Drive menu, via the...

Peter,

Just to inform you that the wind direction has been rotated 180° for a couple of months now (I assume a CSP issue?). When you select 0° North, the wind is coming from 180° South.

Also the "rain rumble sound" that you have fixed in a previous version of Pure can still be heard when moving around with F7 Free Camera at high speeds.

Would be nice if we could set the humidity in Content Manager before starting the race...

Thats ok. red is just the CM "not default" color. So if its red, this setting is not default. You can change this color in

So if you change this to green, it would appear in green. This color has no "warning" or "error" meaning.

Please read the manual or watch the litlle install movie. You need to extract the whole "Pure 0.180" folder to Desktop and then you run the install_pure.bat in that folder. You can't run the installer from the 7zip app, because it does not extract all files before or the installer is not related to the temporal extraction folder.

Then files are missing, then error occur while running the scripts and the lua interpreter goes crazy and you have poor fps.

Does anyone know how to set Sol as random weather in a custom championship? I assume if I choose "random" here, it will use either Sol weather plan or OE Kunos weather plan? I'd like to just use Sol random weather here.

You could use Sol Planner app. Set the weather controller to "Sol 2.5" and go ingame. Then open Sol Planner and select a preset. Then you select a random weather and then you check the checkbox left to the preset button. Then it will load this preset at the start of your session:

Sol already controls my weather, see below, I don't have the same options you do in your screenshots for the guide, but I am on the latest stable version of CM: 0.8.2467.39678 (x86). From my research and what I've been told 0.8.25 is a preview/beta build via Patreon?

I have the paid version of CM and it's not showing any updates. I've already done a clean install which made no difference.

Is there an option or revision you have on your radar perhaps that has a random preset within Sol? i.e. If I click weather, I can choose Random, but I believe that's the OE Kunos random. I don't think it takes into account yours. I then have Sol and I can manually choose different weather.

I'd also like to use that functionality within my custom championships. I appreciate it may not be on your radar but would be good to have.

Thank you for your tips, I'll definitely keep that in mind for my quick drive/quick race sessions.

Actually the newest CM is only available on Ilja's patreon right now. But it has some nice new features like the weather, wetness and puddles you can set to your liking.

You set it in drive menu via the Sol 2.5 sub menu and if you start a challenge, it will use those settings.

But you can already do it with the latest public of CM. Just do what i describe. You use Sol Planner and force it to load a preset.

The challenges have their own set weather. You can't change it in the drive menu with the older CM versions.

Therefore you could use a Sol Planner forced preset. Or you get the newest CM from Ilja and change it via the menu. idk when, but it will come to the public after the tests and bugfixes.

Thanks for the response.

Yes, that's what I heard over on Reddit.

It's not a challenge as such, but a custom championship, in that, you can choose the weather, like in the first screenshot I attached. Currently set to random but I might do what you say and set it to clear and then use Sol Planner in each session.

I'll wait for it to come to public release, I'm sure it will. I emailed him about a CM issue I had, but sadly, no response.

Thanks for the advice, keep up the good work.

Hello! my sol planner 4.0 is not working, it says that Sol 2.5 controller is not running even though that I chose Sol 2.5 in weatherfx controller script. How do I fix it? Thank you.

There is no error. So you are not in a replay or in an online session, right?

Your sky is black, do you think the weather script/style runs properly?

Could you please open CSP lua debug app ingame, switch to the tab with the red dot and expand the error. Then please make a screenshot.

Yes, I am in singleplayer mode.

Didn't realize that cause I was in night time and thought it was normal, but I tried playing in day time and tried different weathers and it keeps giving me the black sky.
