I have found a way to add windshield wiper bounce.

[Tim_Fragmagnet]

In other news, I confirmed that the huey cockpit's front panel isn't using specular maps even though it has them.

 

I don't know if anyone has found this before, but it's a pretty simple lua edit.

 

It does come at a price however, if you do this edit, you will no longer be able to use the windshield wiper modes.

 

Theoretically, the devs could attach the windshield wiper gauge onto another gauge, and then we could have both bounce and wiper control.

 

in DCSWorldModsaircraftUh-1HCockpitScripts there is a file called mainpanel_init.

 

On lines 670-680 it refers to the windshield wipers.

fantastic! thank you, great find! never using wipers modes anyway, its not realistic without rain animation on windshield.

Does this mod fail any server integrity checks?

Does this mod fail any server integrity checks?

 

It shouldn't because cockpit edits are clientside.

 

But I do not actually know.

Nice mod. All we need now are rain effects on the windshield.
