wip Mach 1 cloud poofs going against the wind near ground. Persisting bug

[Realizm]

Hello,

I've seen this happening for years now it seems, figured it would have been fixed by now. I set the Cloud/Rain level 3 on Marianas map, Mirage 2000C, night time. Moved cloud deck as low as it will go (~2700ft, if I recall correctly). Fog and dust disabled. Wind coming from 247 at 10-30 knots. Soon as you slow down, put gear down and your light illuminates in front of you, you'll see what I'm talking about (mission attached).

Clouds are zooming by at something like Mach 1+ from left to right. Anyone else still having this issue, and any word on ever getting this fixed or a work around? 

Thanks.

PS:

Technical details for devs, if they need it:

Ryzen 9 3950X on an Asus Crosshair IV Hero X370 board, 32GB ram, Gigabyte 2080 Ti, all ultra settings in DCS (whatever I can turned to the max, or close enough).  If specific settings are needed I can provide those. Windows 10 with the latest feature updates and all patches up to date as of this post. Nvidia driver to date as of today (12/4/21). Bios for the motherboard and GPU are up to date as well, but shouldn't matter. All hardware drivers are also up to date.

Yes. I have just done a beam approach into Manston in bad weather while flying the Mosquito.

I was in a crosswind and  the cloud / snow particles  were moving quite rapidly across the flight path.

The cloud / snowing effects are very pretty, but there is something badly wrong with the dynamics.

In real life when you are flying in rain or snow where you can see the particles they are always coming straight towards you as you are both equally affected by any wind.

You are both in the same air mass and at this stage its speed and direction is irrelevant.

It got even worse when I turned 90° and flew downwind. Now I was being overtaken by the clouds and snow. It was passing me and moving away in the forward direction as if I was stationary on the ground.

It looks like ED need to do some revision on their relative frames of refece, and while they are at it perhaps change their wind directions to the common standard 'coming from' not 'blowing to'.

Update:

I have to take it all back!

I flew the mission again and everything looked  perfect.

Even the tower told me the correct wind direction 

( After landing the snow was visibly now blowing 180° different from the first time. Perhaps something randomized in the mission is screwing thing up?)

Update 2:

Repeating the mission several times (LSHFT + R) gave the weird effects and reversed wind direction again each time.

However, a restart of the computer and DCS OpenBeta restored normal effects.

Strange

That behavior has been going on since the 2.5 days, maybe even before. In lengthy missions the rain/snow effects will blow almost laterally in the opposite direction of actual wind by the end of the mission. It also happens if you run missions back-to-back without restarting the sim.
