This includes: Cloud detection features, in-cloud motion effect, in-cloud visibility reduction, high-resolution radar/precip accuracy, and some ASCA-integrated enhancements/dynamics. Some features of ASP3D are not compatible with EA mode.

The new Enhanced Atmospherics (EA) mode in P3Dv5 is new and undergoing constant improvements.

Includes the most advanced version of our award-winning core weather engine and weather data services, being refined now for over 20 years.

Major enhancements to the data network, weather synthesis, interpolation, and other core weather simulation and depiction technologies – now with much increased performance, stability and availability.

Includes ASCA integration for cloud and sky graphics enhancements with dynamic cloud and sky texture variation, now working fully outside the P3D folder using the new add-on specification design.

New EA-mode integration with new interpolation, depiction, synthesis and parameter control for a more accurate experience.

ACTIVE SKY XP INSTALLATION INSTALL

New networking design that eliminates the need for SimConnect configuration or use between clients and server – Just install ASP3D on the client, the included AS P3D Connector Installer on the server, make sure your networked shares are configured, and go.

New Universal XGauge design that works for all aircraft at any time without requiring panel additions.

New P3D add-on specification design with all items installed outside of the P3D folders.

ACTIVE SKY XP INSTALLATION UPDATE

New 5.3-specific EA enhancements including better visibility tuning, additional cloud transition smoothing, volumetric fog smoothing, and volumetric cloud depiction configuration options (when used with ASP3D update 021422 or later).

Works in both standard mode and new “Enhanced Atmospherics” mode with P3Dv5 – See below for EA limitations.

New Prepar3D v5 integration with all the standard functionality you’d expect from the ActiveSky weather engine.

Wind smoothing redesigned for higher frequency force actuation and organic feel.

New XGauge universal design that works for any aircraft without needing to install into panels – New reworked airborne radar mode visualization with radial signal processing + multiple radar usage capability (you can now use multiple AS Radar API add-on radar displays together along with XGauge airborne radar mode all at the same time).

New networking design eliminating the need for SimConnect configuration in networked environments – Just install ASP3D, install the included Connector on the server machine, configure your shared paths, and go!.

New P3D add-on folder specification/design, with everything installed outside of the P3D folders – Includes ASCA support (with SP3 Update).

New 5.3-specific EA enhancements including better visibility tuning, additional cloud transition smoothing, volumetric fog smoothing, and volumetric cloud depiction configuration options.

New P3D Enhanced Atmospherics (EA) integration for improved synthesis, depiction, interpolation, and flight plan awareness.

ACTIVE SKY XP INSTALLATION SIMULATOR

ASP3D evolves realism-based weather simulation, building upon the ground-breaking and proven features of ActiveSky while integrating with the latest simulator platform update from Lockheed Martin: Prepar3D v5.3 HF2.
