Rain as advertised

Why is that?

hold on, because something doesn’t make sense to you, you’re telling @camargo24 to not try a possible solution that has worked for other people?

I’m all for trying to make logical sense of things, but telling other people not to try possible solutions just seems counterproductive.

@Camargo24 just try that HDMI cable. You can’t break anything by trying. Just plug it in, and see if it helps. If not, go back to your DP cable. Again, nothing wrong with trying.

Right, one last try!

First. We always fear what we don’t understand eh?

And yes I agree, it is a bug. But a software bug not a cable bug.

And whilst, of course, you are free to continue with this madness, so too am I free not to
So when I said “one last try” that is exactly what I mean’t.

I shall leave you to your magic.

There is Rain, but it is more of a Dizzle, than “rain”


There was a LOT more in FSX. (which was totally unreal)

It’s actually quite realistic in MSFS, for medium / light rain for small GA.

The Big Boys can take a lot more !!!

Need MORE rain !!

At MAX, I would like to see this :-

Well well well
 so I connected my HDMI and it seemed to fix the rain issue.

I just connected back my HDMI and I am shocked!
Why doesn’t it work with a DP cable ummmmm.

How about a of rain. I get rain but it is soundless against the windshield.

I am using an HDMI port for my main display, so I’ve seen these rain effects all the time. What I find annoying is that the rain effect on the windshield is very sparse, it really doesnt do anything to obscure your view at all, even in heavy rain storms. And windshield wipers are there just for decoration, they have no function what so ever in actually removing rain from the windshield, something that has been working in games for probably close to a decade, at least in racing games. I think this should be implemented in a better way, the current rain effects and wipers are somewhat disappointing.

I agree. The rain looks like drizzle wherever you go. Not seen heavy rain yet. The cockpit windscreen effects can certainly be improved. I miss the Zibo 737 in X-plane. The lib rain effects with windscreen wiper effects are superb.

weird isn’t it? I have no clue why.

im running display port and no issus with rain

Try it with an HDMI and see if that’s really true.

Quick question for everyone as this could be down to drivers, somehow. What video cards are those with the problem running?

I’m on a 1070ti.

Mine is RTX 2070S

A quote from a post I made elsewhere:

Do not take any advise [including mine] at face value. There are many purveyors of snake oil out there who will tell you with absolute conviction that they possess the miracle ‘fix’ that you need, when often, it doesn’t even exist!

Stay on Topic ???

We are discussing RAIN in MSFS and the lack of it .
How is showing a Real World Video of what it should look like “OFF TOPIC” ?

To me, it would seem to be a valid comparison between MSFS and Real World, and highly relevant to any discussion about the lack of rain in MSFS,

I do not see why this is a COC violation 
 please explain ???

Agreed. It’s a mad, mad world.

RTX2080 for me.

I’d want to see even more, like this:

Or at least this:

Where you would need to use wipers
