Hans, one more report before I leave ;-)
Actually, I don't see the weather problems that you have. (I tested on my MacBook Pro) I chose "Thunderstorm" from the Weather Scenario dialog and closed it. When I opened it again, it still says "Thunderstorm." even with "-- enable-real-weather-fetch" option. When I added "--enable-real-weather-fetch" option, the dialog says "none" as you mentioned. but when I choose "METAR," then the weather changes to METER mode. Plus, when I manually adjust the weather conditions in METER mode, the numbers that I adjusted were still there when I open the weather condition dialog again. When I select "METAR" manually after I selected "thunderstorm," the weather is still thunderstorm even the dialog shows "METAR." In this case, I didn't add "--enable-real-weather-fetch, " so this could be normal behavior. This is what I got. Is this what you expect or not? I also want to know the weather related behavior on other platforms. If you don't see the same thing on your Mac, please try all the patches that I have. these can be obtained from: http://macflightgear.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/macflightgear/branches/0.9.11/patches/ FlightGear-0.9.10-MacOSX.diff is the patch for the sun gets rendered properly as I posted before. SimGear-0.3.10-MacOSX.diff includes the patch that I posted on the last email on the list. This also contains the patch for missing OpenAL on Macs. so you can apply the patch that I enclosed on my last post instead of this if you already have your own version of OpenAL patch. SimGear-0.3.10-MacOSX-Splash.diff is only for PPC Macs to avoid getting broken splash screen so you don't probably need that. This is due to (I guess) a bug in gzlib on PPC Macs since this bug doesn't occur on Intel Macs. I'm very happy If you give me any feedbacks on these patches. I'll reply when I'm back.
