Windy 3D mode is back!
-
@vicb Hi, that is strange, my Mac is around 5 years old and particles work fine, not glitchy and fairly smooth. Did you try with other browsers too?

@flyingrockdoctor It is still work in progress, so we will consider it.
-
Great, very usefull information and reliavle.
-
@korina you are absolutely right - it works much better in Safari 14.1.1. It must be a problem with my version of Chrome. Sorry that I didn't test earlier.
Thanks

Congratulations, you are always reinventing yourself and offering innovative products...

@korina said in Windy 3D mode is back!:
I like it
-
@vicb I have Chrome 91 and everything works well.
-
@korina It doesn't for me ☺I just tried again, and the layer is not updating as the time slider progresses.
I presume the issue is because I'm using "Ungoogled-chromium", and WebGL in-particular seems to (intentionally) not work, so I think maybe Windy is falling back to some other rendering method which is unsupported/untested by the team. It's not a big deal to me anyway.

@lf94 Hello, if you have uncommon browser version, then it might be the issue.
-
Really enjoy the 3d view, great idea and execution. Noted that the south pole didn't have any ISO bars on wind animation.
-
Yes, the 3D presentation is great, keep it around this time, please!
-
You SHOULD NOT be forcing users to become premium members in order to use the 3D capability...PERIOD!

@korina Hello! My name is Martin and I'm 14 years old. Meteorology is my dream job from early childhood.
I'm new at the Windy, but I'm so excited! Very good (in my opinion best) weather data visualisation website I evere seen. I really the custom color scales and 3D globe is just perfect. I also really like the smooth animations and that is very important for me. In next days I will buy the premium subscribtion! Best wishes!
Kind Regards

Awesome work :) Thank you!!
As for charging for it - I think you guys absolutely deserve to get paid. There's no forcing in providing a good quality service with awesome features and qualities such as smoothness and relative simplicity, listening to the folks who use your stuff, and doing it all sustainably w/o going out of business. Keep at it!

@kdog55 Hi, we are not forcing users, 3D globe a an extra feature that is planned to be available for Premium users only.
-
@mikkokaar We are happy that you enjoy our work :)
-
Hi, this is absolutly great imagine of your data.
It is a pity, there is no good conditions for do this even for Satelit and meteoradar :( ... Or you are working even on those variants?
Thx for reply and holding fingers to stay your work excellent like now ;) ... Bye ...
-
@ajkpark Hi, Radar and Satellite are planned to be added in the next instances.
-
super. wszystko idzie w dobrym kierunku
-
Remark about max zoom in 3D mode:
- one cannot get bigger map scale than zoom 6 (screenshot), which is not enough; user has to enable 2D to zoom more, then again 3D to zoom less... which is boring
- if Windy 3D technology would allow it (and I think it does), big map scales should not be limited by 3D
- other 3D web maps don't have such a limit (e.g. GogolMaps), or well allow zooming to much bigger map scales (e.g. MeteoEarth, NullSchool, DarkSky)
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
