Prepar3D Metar Reader (P3DMR) is an application that translates the Prepar3D-specific metar strings into English. It requires the dotNet 4.5.1 or later framework to run. There is no installer; just copy the contents of the archive into a folder of your choice.
Please note that this is designed for setups that do not have third-party weather generators installed (e.g. Active Sky). The information injected into Prepar3D by third-party weather generators may cause P3DMR to return incorrect information. The initial idea was driven by the need to watch updates from multiple weather stations within the reality bubble, but this utility can be used by non-developers.
Additional Requirements:
The latest versions of:
Makerwys by Pete Dowson http://www.fsuipc.com/
Lorby Scenery Export https://www.lorby-si.com/
Both makerwys.exe and LorbyScenery.exe must be copied into the same folder as P3D Metar.exe.
