Thanks for the positive feedback Aaron and Molly, but I actually didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Since it is a powerpoint file all I had to do was change them from XL icons to the 4000 icons and tweak the sizes because they did come up more larger than the XL ones. I always wondered what that version of the XL would be like if it had the 4000 icons to start off so it was another one of my random ideas.  :P

XL v1 Warning Tone Test #2

WeatherStar XL v1 Warning Tone Test - March 11, 2010 6:30pm


Test #2 - I'm not sure why it took so long for the text to appear like it did, it was set to appear at the same time of the warning tone. I also changed the font for the title bar to the right font from the first test last night.

NOTE - ALL WEATHER DATA IS FAKE, ONLY THE TORNADO WARNING CRAWL WAS REAL (The warning was from a county in Central Florida.)

4000 Warning Crawl Test #3

WeatherStar4000 Emulation - March 12, 2010 4:35pm (Warning Crawl Test)


Test #3

NOTE - All weather data is fake, only the information on the warning crawl is real information. I know the crawl is moving slowly, but it's also smoother than the last two tests on the XL. I'm gonna work on that because I'm still tweaking with the timing. Flood Warning Crawl is from Atlanta(Fulton Co.) in GA.

Ok, due to my test playlist and other STAR emulations I was doing this year, it's been a while since I've done a 4000 emulator recording so here's one on the Summer-like temps coming our way.

WeatherStar4000 Emulator - Goodbye 50's, Hello 80's!

Features "Rising Moon" by Doug Markley which will be featured on my April 2010 Overnight Test Playlist on my Youtube channel. ;)

WeatherStar XL V2 Emulation with Errors!

8 years ago in April 2002 TWC began departing ways with the NWS for local forecasts and began making their own home bred forecasts. Because of that, I removed the NOAA logo and the NWS text from the 36 hr forecast screen and the Current Condition narration is still being pulled from the airport obs. instead of the downtown area obs. There are also some more errors; can you spot them all out?

Also I can't take any credit for the animated Isolated Thunderstorm icon that was made by Martin I just wanted to see if it would lag under the recording program I used to record this emulation.

This is an emulation of the current version of the IntelliStar without the metro maps, schoolday forecast, and the traffic flow map. I also experimented with something once the Getaway forecast comes up. ;)

The audio and narration was ripped from one of my IntelliStar recordings.

The song featured is "Starburst" by Bryan Steele. :dance:
