MWRS about reaching Final stage

It's been almost a year since last update, and to tell the truth, not much have been done. The only thing I've done is bug-fixing, but I haven't been arsed uploading it :P. So, frankly, It's about time updating MWRS.

In the next release, which is planned to be MWRS final release. Will not feature any new stuff. If you have been following this project, then you've most likley noticed the Weather Prediction part, which never got complete, and never will make it. So in the Final Release the Weather Prediction is removed.... read more

Bugtesters wanted

Now when version 0.96 of MWRS has been released, I would like some help from you guys, finding bugs. I'm sure many bugs might appear during usage, and would be very happy if you could report them using Bug-Report function here at sourceforge. Thanx in advance.

Along with many changes, MWRS 0.96 big new feature are the Icon print, which plots the weather with icons. This makes the weather report much more compact, and in many ways easier to just glance trhough.

New features ahead

The next release of MWRS will take a while because i'm working on a new graphical show of the weather, which will make it possible to have more compact and hopefully show everything in one screen (1024x768 pixels resolution, and 4 cities)

MWRS 0.95 released

Metar Weather Report System version 0.95 has been released. Along with many different changes, the main thing is very much simplified usage, and changing locations. It now uses somewhat like an INI file for setup. Also a hudge amount of bugs have been killed. Looks like the Apache server with latest PHP installed is a bit more cranky about array usage than Uniserver is ;)

MWRS next release

The next release of MWRS will include easier setup, and a new way of setting up new locations, using an INI file-typed configuration. The new way of handling location information will be cross-version compatible as much as possible, meaning you don't need to reconfigurate MWRS each time you download a new version. The Next version will also include better temperature graph, with location text. To get a better view of what's new in the next release, visit our homepage.
