No rain around aircraft

[Petermuc3 8]

Hi,

I just installed the demo of OpusFSX with only the weather option active.

A/C position EDDM, metar was very correct (wind, qnh, overcast, rain), but there was no rain

around the aircraft. When going into towerview you could see the rain.

I then loaded AS2012 to make sure there is nothing wrong with the simulator and everything

was there as it should be.

Does anyone have the same problem? From everfything what I read in the forums Opus seems to have a superior weather engine and I am really interested in the product.

Ok, rain shows up now. Not sure what was wrong in the 1st place.

I have RexE as textures and can hear the rain outside but not in the cockpit (PMDG 737NGX, QW Avro RJ100). I seemed to remember that I was able to heare the rain also inside.

Does someone know a solution?

Hi Peter,

 

The only time I've experienced 'no rain around the aircraft' is when I tested FSX under DX10 preview a while back. But now with the new DX10 shader(s) available, that may have been fixed but haven't checked lately. More info is available at http://forum.avsim.net/forum/569-dx-10-discussions-hints-and-help/. I don't have a solution to the sound issue if in fact it is an issue. I can't remember whether the pilot can hear rain inside the 737NGX cockpit.

 

Regards,

Perhaps it was raining at the Tower but not at the aircraft?
