[Equest-users] LEED Compliance - Weather File

Hi Peter,

I was having some issues similar with a weather file that I was not able to
download from the weather site.

What ended up working for me was that I placed the desired weather file
(.bin) in the general weather directory for the version of eQuest I was
running (different folders for version 3.63 & 3.64...)   Instead of placing
the file in the appropriate folder (i.e. TMY, CZ, etc.)  it seemed to be
able to find my weather file when it just sat in the general folder for
weather.

You'll need to double check the specified (defualt) path in your project
site info screen, sometimes it will have "TMY\Denver.bin" for example.
Remove the TMY\ part and see if that works.

This was one of those stupid minor issues, but when I couldn't get it to
work it seemed more productive to 'bang my head against the wall'...
