hey all. so i'm flying around bombing things in Nevada, when out of the blue i begin flying through a super thick snow blizzard.

 

temp: 0c

cloud: 2 density

 

and its only isolated in a small area above my targets. i fly through it in about 15 seconds, but it's consistently there. is this normal behavior?

I think they're working on an effect that allows precip. under clouds only so you can fly in and out of rain/snow. Hopefully new cloud system allows for making more realistic cloud formations and creating isolated storms.

That's not dust, that's a precipitation shaft.

 

You can find the same affect on the Normandy map. Unfortunately, you do not see the coolest part of the whole thing, which is the precipitation shaft.

 

Your simply flying along, when suddenly you have huge rain drops/snow flakes racing past you. If you look up, you will see a cloud, but not see the rain/snow actually falling, neither from outside the rain shaft, nor from inside it. It makes the affect really stupid, because the important part is the shaft, and not looking like you're driving through rain, which never touches your windscreen.

exactly buddy! but here in AZ, we also get Haboob's. I was just highlighting that with a fellow 'Zonie (who's experienced them too).... :)

C'mon now. Are you being sarcastic or is this really a preview screenshot?

That's real world pimp.

 

Though once 2.5 has been out a while I am sure we can expect all kinds of wow factor effects.

 

Regarding the phenomenon of precipitation under clouds - The whole cloud engine is under development, and we are told the current clouds in 2.2 and to come in 2.5 are a modification of the old cloud system, and a new one will follow. Presumably the precipitation is just one feature we can expect along with that package. I hope rain/snow obscuration will be part of that package.

 

Time - as always - will tell.

Ok. Thanks Neil for the clarification.lol I honestly would not have been surprised with all the other great additions ED has done with this sim.

+1 would love this as a fellow Arizonan:thumbup:. I don't think people would know what to do though lol.
