I originally got this idea from somebody who did this for PMIII a long time ago, but things are slightly different for mc360 and so I figured I'd do a quick mod for those out there who might want this.  I actually think this would be a great thing to integrate into mc360, its a reliable, useful script that never seems to get broken.  All it would need was a mc360 style background.  For those who don't have the script already, it can be found here:

Anyway, just open up MyWeather.xml and replace this....

I tried downloading the XRadar script currently on xbmcscripts.com, and it didn't work for me, so if anybody is having problems with that one, I uploaded my copy.  It works great.  It's available here for download:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ADKKTPGV

And, here is a picture of the radar.  NORMALLY, you'd see the doplar radar stuff like you see on the news with big swirly green and blue things and stuff....but its a super clear night and htere aren't any clouds around.  But it always works great, and its animated, shows a like 3 second loop (which actually represents like an hour or something) of the cloud progression.  This is a 300 mile range view, but you can also choose a 600 mile view.  Obviously, it has the PMIII background.  But I imagine somebody could cook up a MC360 background fairly easily...

Can you please upload the screenshots on ImageShack.us?

[timdog82001]

does it not show them or something?

[macmel]

Nope it does not.

[timdog82001]

Weird...I see it perfectly.  Okay, I'll do that in a few minutes here.

[timdog82001]

[TheAgedGamer]

Thanks for this mod,  just tried it out and worked perfectly. Nice little addition.

[mbay]

timdog82001, t.hanks for uploading this

[jspacemarine]

this would be awsome if it was implemented in the final release

[timdog82001]

man I wish i could edit old posts....

Okay, I found one small glitch where if you weren't hooked up to the network the button would disappear but not the divider, so to fix that replace

CODE

            button image 99
            image
            55
            157
            125
            1
            divider.png
            WindowClose
        

with this

CODE

            button image 99
            image
            55
            157
            125
            1
            divider.png
            System.HasNetwork
            WindowClose
        

of course not that it matters much, because how often do you look at the weather screen when you don't have an internet connection

[pceptimus]

is there anyway you can put this mod in the myweather,xml that comes with the livemod?

[timdog82001]

uh what do you mean exactly?  ask them to add this mod into it permanently, or for me to custom add it for you just for this occasion?  What's different in the live mod for weather anyway?
