Not that I know of.

You can still use Google Maps, it's just that VRS now defaults to Leaflet and OpenStreetMap. If you have stuff that will only work with Google then go to Tools | Options, set the map provider to Google Maps and then reload the map page.

Yes I have another similar script that works with Open Weather Map, but I preferred Aeris personally. I’ll look into combining the two scripts sometime.

I put the contents of "Put these in the VRS folder" inside

C:Progam Files (x86) Virtual Radar

and I added the html files via custom plugins as per attached screenshot
