WelshZeCorgi Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 They don't seem to actually wipe away the rain. Also, doesn't seem to need them cause ingame rain doesn't buildup on the windshield. Can we get wipers properly working? 2

Kang Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Nice as it would be, I think we only just got raindrops on windshields at all, and as they're not much of a thing for fast movers I don't expect ED to do much about them.
Northstar98 Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 +1 certainly a nice to have. One thing I also noticed (though I imagine it's more accurate) is that it only seems to be low and slow where they render at all.

norbot Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Never noticed any windshield wipers in my modules. Are you talking about choppers?

WelshZeCorgi Posted October 13, 2020 Author Posted October 13, 2020 I think the fixed wing fighters blow a stream of air over the canopy to remove rain, but still applies. Rain doesn't really act like rain, rain-removing equipment doesn't seem to work or have a purpose in dcs.
Kang Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Addendum: as long as clouds themselves simply disappear if you switch cameras once too often, the proper simulation of raindrops is probably secondary.
WelshZeCorgi Posted March 26, 2021 Author Posted March 26, 2021 Any updates on this? Any news on rain effects now that the weather system is starting to get put into DCS? 2

Northstar98 Posted March 26, 2021 Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) I just took another look @ 0:27 - they're not wiping, you can see streaks and drops that don't look to be looking as though they're being wiped away.

WelshZeCorgi Posted March 30, 2021 Author Posted March 30, 2021 Yeah, I don't see it either. Disapoint
bies Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) I remember being small kid i played my first helicopter game, Apache vs Havoc from 1999, it had variable weather like rain and working windscreen wipers. Those times it looks stunning and unbelievable. With more and more helicopters I'm sure ED will make working wipers since they are really big thing in helicopters when not important for fixed wing aircrafts. Edited January 17, 2022 by bies 1
MAXsenna Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I remember being small kid i played my first helicopter game, Apache vs Havoc from 1999, it had different weather like rain and working windscreen wipers. Those times it looks stunning and unbelievable. With more and more helicopters I'm sure ED will make working wipers since they are really big thing in helicopters when not important for fixed wing aircrafts. Brings back memories. Used to fly this single handed with my daughter in the other arm when she was newborn and wouldn't sleep at night. Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk 1
