[RELEASED] for UE4: Complete Sky and Weather System

[Haoris]

@DannRees

I’m sorry to say , but considering is supposedly one of the “leading sky and weather middleware” options, the support and overall professionalism is pretty shocking.

When the plugin actually works, it is without a doubt, very impressive indeed…when it works. But anyone who has used it will know how unstable it can be. Fine, I accept software has bugs, I’ve been programming for 18 years and I’m well aware of the difficulties involved. But when you are selling your product, the customers deserve to know what’s going on.

From what I can see, there’s no official release notes or announcements and the blog was last updated in October 2018. Forum updates or sporadic at best.

The documentation is generally poor and the last UE4 video tutorial was released four years ago! Adding Ocean systems before fixing the core Sky/Weather system and providing professional documentation is just absurd.

I’m a hobbyist when it comes to making games and every penny I spend on assets/plugins is seriously considered, and I’m sure that goes for a lot of you too.

My experience with /Simul thus far has been extremely disappointing, I honestly expected much better.

Same . Many questions on thread and 99% of them never has an answer.
plugin is one of the most expensive of the UE4 market and is just NOT production ready as too many things just don’t work/lack support and updates.
It looks like the creator has left the boat and the plugin is maintenained by someone else (michael_simul) but doesn’t have much time.
Guys, if you can’t/don’t have time to make a plugin usable in a commercial projet, just don’t sell it as all you do is making people waste time/money.
