VC Rain making a come back in v2 ?

Recommended Posts

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 :)

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

I know there's a lot of money in aviation because I put it there.

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).

Anthony, the Render to Texture feature can only be done via a C gauge using the DirectX API...
