Weather mod v1.8.1 for DCS

[Scal]

Hi bandit648 ! 
First of all, thank you for this great mod witch permits splendid atmosphere and game-play !!! 
I use it as much as possible during multiplayer missions. But I'm facing a little problem: Some player does not have it installed and do not want to loose time before we start as it is not mandatory. What happen, for example is that mod user are in the clouds and the other in a sunny day.

Is there a way to detect if the mod is installed through a script or a piece of lua code ?
If not would it be possible that if the mod is not installed it uses a dcs preset similar/close to the mod preset ?
Or would it be possible to make the mod mandatory ?

@bandit648 Very cool!

Does every client need the mod installed or only the mission creator?

Yes, every client need to have the mod installed to see the effects.
Unfortunately the mod is not mandatory, so if a client does not have it, the weather will be a default sunny day.

Thanks a lot, when in MP with dedicated server, and all the clients have the mod, we all see the same cirrus change at the same time?

Yes, we all see the same !!!
