Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Everything else seems normal, just black rain.

I think you could give Gauges Recovery a try anyway, the worst thing that could possibly happen is that it doesn't help with your issue.#But since that file helps to recover missing/corrupt default effect texture files, it is very likely able to help you resolve your issue. Here's a link to the download: http://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=gauges+recovery&CatID=fsxutil&Go=Search

I'll give it a go and let you know, thanks.

Downloaded and started to use the program when I discovered it wants you to revert back DX 9 from DX 10. Not happening, I use Steve's fixer and it is not that simple to revert. Will have try something else. I actually am considering disabling rain effects since the are awful in FSX anyway.

Fixed it! It was the "Rain Brightness" slider in Steve's "DX10 Fixer" was set to "50%", moved it to 100% and all is better.
