Sorry my friend but i think i gave you false information, regarding the clouds issue,it was a while back that i had this problem. but i managed to dig up an old cfs3 install i had kept for back up. and the shots below are how it appeared, Here is how i solved the prob. At the time some of my installs had this problem and other installs were ok. so i copied the contents of the folder "weather" from the effects folder, from a good copy of cfs3 and pasted them into the corresponding folder into the install i was having problems with, let them overwrite. BACK UP FIRST. and that solved the issue.
 
thks the same jaycee, I think I do have that issue in some of my installs apart experiencing troubles as explained in "clouds" thread so your tip won't be wasted at all!!!
 
Any suggestions for those of us who don't have an install that is working? I thought maybe the original clouds just weren't big enough for a modern widescreen monitor, and that maybe some replacement package or other might have bigger ones...

Hi nwp,
the white squares indicate that you are missing a .dds texture file needed to render a particular cloud. cloud textures are located in the effects/weather folder.

That is why sometimes one install works, and another is missing a requisite texture. You could try using an add-on clouds pack and see if that helps.
