This release and source code are the last offerings from Steve Loft before he handed the project over to "the community". [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/CumulusMXDist3043.zip Cumulus MX v3.0.0 build 3043, 20-Jan-2017] Cumulus MX, a cross platform version of Cumulus which runs on Windows, Linux (including the Raspberry Pi) and Mac OS X (Steve Loft - final release). [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/CumulusMXSource.zip Cumulus MX Source Code] The original source code from Steve Loft. This version of the code is post b3043 as it includes some changes that Steve had made, but not yet released. Offered completely '''without support''' in the hope that it might be useful. The code is very badly structured due to the 'Frankenstein' way it was cobbled together from various places. Some of it is a machine translation of parts of Cumulus 1~~. This version of the code is post b3043~~. = Legacy releases = == Cumulus 1 == We do not have copies of old versions of Cumulus, so please do not ask for them. Only the current version is supported. If you obtain copies of older versions of Cumulus from elsewhere (e.g. web archives) please do not ask for help with them. We strongly advise against using an old unsupported version, if only for the fact that it is likely to have bugs which have been fixed in later releases. The installer for Cumulus 1 is available here [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/CumulusSetup.exe Cumulus 1098 installer]. Note that if you use certain anti-virus software -- in particular Avast or Symantec -- you may find that they flag the Cumulus installer, or Cumulus itself, as a ‘threat’ and block it, for a few days or weeks after a new version has been released, even though it does not actually contain a virus of any kind. This is due to a system they call ‘reputation’ where they automatically block any versions of software which have recently been released. You may want to consider complaining to the provider of your anti-virus software about this ridiculous system, or better still, use some better anti-virus software. *[//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/cumulus.1099.12.zip Cumulus 1.9.4 build 1099.2 patch] Patched version of Cumulus.exe, allows date entries on NOAA reports and Snow Index up to the year 2030 (updated 28 Jan 2020).

In 2020, some of the menu items with year choices will not display years beyond 2020. This will happen on manual generation of NOAA-style reports. The NOAA reports should continue to be automatically generated, but the capability to create them on-demand will only work through 2020. It is '''STRONGLY RECOMMENDED''' that users of Cumulus 1.9.4 and 1.9.4 variants migrate to Cumulus MX, which has ongoing support by mcrossley. == Resources == [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/Cumulus%20basic%20installation%20guide.pdf Cumulus installation guide] Instructions for installing Cumulus [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/readme.txt Cumulus readme.txt] Please read this before installing or updating Cumulus [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/CumulusRealtime.zip Cumulus Realtime] A Silverlight application for displaying real time Cumulus data on a web site (no longer developed or supported) [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/CumulusFR.chm Cumulus help file in French] The Cumulus help file translated into French == Utility for Fine Offset Stations == [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/SetLogger.zip Set Logger Interval] A utility to set the logger interval on Fine Offset stations == Weather Display Converter == This utility was provided by Steve to convert Weather Display log files to Cumulus format.
