December 19, 201312 yr Is vc rain making a comeback as i was having a look in the texture folder i found loads of the vc rain textures with a newish creation date on them which makes me wonder.. are we going to get vc rain or are LM going to provide the tools for addon developers to use ?? I really hope we get vc rain back as they will really push the sim over the edge for me -Paul-
December 19, 201312 yr The most interesting thing is the file size.. I just went and looked.. The FSX VC rain are 8x8 textures.. The ones sitting in v2 are 512x512 ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING / i9-9900k @ 4.7 all cores w/ NOCTUA NH-D15S / 2080ti / 32GB G.Skill 3200 RIPJAWS / 1TB Evo SSD / 500GB Evo SSD / 2x 3TB HDD / CORSAIR CRYSTAL 570X / IPSG 850W 80+ PLATINUM / Dual 4k Monitors
December 19, 201312 yr That would be fantastic news yes. Let's hope it's true Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
December 19, 201312 yr FSX has these files,too. Texture folder. David Zambrano, CFII, CPL, IGI I know there's a lot of money in aviation because I put it there.
December 19, 201312 yr Commercial Member Probably No. FS9 VC rain textures relied on texture animation which FSX and P3D do not do directly. P3D has introduced a Render to Texture feature which may be able to be used to create rain effects though (still trying to get my head around the exact nature of this feature and what it can do). www.antsairplanes.com
December 19, 201312 yr Moderator Anthony, the Render to Texture feature can only be done via a C gauge using the DirectX API... Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
