OpenCPN grib plugin displaying rain & 500mb

My May, 2013 build of OpenCPN 3.2.2 has a grib plugin that doesn't display rain or 500mb files available from saildocs. Where is the best available download for the grib plugin with this capability? Win 7 64bit and Win8. systems Thanks

alloy...
The best and only place is the download page of opencpn.org
There is a lot of changes in the grib plugin in the 3.3 beta version.
I'm not too sure we want the whole zygrib integrated in opencpn's grib plugin though. If you have an overwhelming feeling something is missing, express it in a feature request in OpenCPN::Tracker All Projects: Tasklist and sooner or later someone might implement it.

Thanks for the response. I'll try the 3.3 beta. We're offshore and don't need or use clever graphics, but rain and particularly 500 mb data is important for forecasting.
