[QUOTE=Buckie;393254]why should the sim struggle with clouds when every other sim manages clouds that look 100 times better than this? I really question the coding in this game.[/QUOTE

It's not just cloud graphics but a whole weather system generator. Lots of stuff going on behind the curtains. Not sure if that is a smart thing with todays hardware but if they get it to work properly it could be brilliant. Weather related accidents killed more pilots in WWII than enemy action. It also altered targets and screwed up missions in progress. Realistic weather will make, transport, recon and other "non combat" missions more interesting. Be fun making a mision and putting in historic weather including high and low pressure areas and warm and cold fronts with the coresponding cloud formations. Probably 5 years away as far as hardware is considered but nice to know it could be done at some point.
