Rain fix


Recommended Posts

This fixes absence of rain.  Also adjusted lightning.

Updated 3-18-2022: 

This was temporary mod until ED fixes the rain.  They have.

However, I'm leaving it because this mod still does offer lingering lightening, smaller and more water droplets, faster rain fall.  File below is compatible with latest as of 3-18-2022.

Also fixes Rain 3 preset not having sound and droplets.

 

 

DOWNLOAD:

INSTALL: Extract to main DCS install path. OvGME or other Mod Managers recommended.

Not IC Safe.

I finally had a chance to try this. The next time CCR asks me, have you ever seen the rain, I will say YES! Thanks Mister Taz! Another great one! 👍

Strangely, "Overcast and Rain 3" could be described this way!

It doesn't seem to work for me. Plenty of rain on the cockpit, but none from external views.

I installed the mod in the main game folder as instructed, but no change. Have I done something wrong?

AFAIK, Ed has yet to fix it.

The fix does not work with the latest OB 2.7.7. I find that the load screen stuck at 23%.  Please kindly note and help and fix it.

Yup, I had the same thing happen. Game load freezes at 23%. Thanks!

Just delete MissionEditor folder from the mod.

File is updated too.  May have to refresh or delete your browser cache.

Didn't realize I had an NVG mod.

😀 Perhaps I've gotten confused but I have a MOD in my MOD manager that for some reason I've called "Taz NVG MOD" could have been a late night!

 

OK, mystery solved, it seems I still had this additional MOD in my MOD manager, have been using it for ages (rightly or wrongly) without issue until todays patch @speed-of-heat referenced it on the first page of his modded VR shaders post:

 

Actually just tried it again and I didn't get a compile error when launching  DCS so not sure why it bombed earlier. Could have just been bad luck. Please disregard

 

 

"An additional MOD also provided by @Taz1004 for those wanting additional clarity in NVG,  this mod can be applied to the other Mods before applying them to DCS or after they have been applied (it will need the other mods to work, I have not tested it on its own)DCS VR Shaders mod for 2.5.6.50321 (NVG Clarity Only).zip"

With rain fall and rain drops on the canopy, I am a happy person again!  Thanks!

The metashaders folder encrypted  with 2.7.7 release.  The path is now ..\\Bazar\shaders\metashaders.edc and no edits .
For this reason, I think that all mods with a folder metasheiders - will not work properly!

This mod doesn't touch metashaders.
