October 24, 201411 yr Commercial Member Hi guys, Keven here, from FSFX Packages. Thank you all for the inspiration, we released some previews on our Facebook page this evening of our work on PrecipitFX for Prepar3D V2. I hope you all like it! Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.
October 24, 201411 yr Looks pretty sweet. Bizarre that after all these years that this is a breakthrough for fsx/p3d, whereas this is run of the mill for other games. Now we just need to have that rain and snow sliding down the windshield in streaks, and have the wipers actually wipe the drops away like in TS. Why is it not possible with DX11 in p3d to do that? Is it the individual aircrafts that would enable this feature if it was possible, or is it a global effect that would be within p3d? Hopefully that happens one day.

December 18, 201411 yr Here is a quick demo showing rain effects that I made. I'm enjoying the product, very nice add-on.

December 20, 201411 yr Yeah, it's great product, works well in P3D V2.4 ... the rain drop FX already exist in P3D (and FSX I think) when you go to Cockpit view (full screen no-cockpit). It would be great if the FSFX Packages crew could figure out how to make that happen in VC. Cheers, Rob.
December 20, 201411 yr Author Just did a new install of P3D - used the P3D version to check all was good wow what a difference Precipitfx makes day and night difference money well spent and looking forward to future projects - thanks Keven Interesting find here.. at least in the P92 Eaglet (Ant's Airplanes).. i'm getting rain drops beading on the windshield... pretty exciting stuff.. i've got to take some screen shots and video in the near future. (v2.4 Prepar3D) Hmm I am not seeing rain drops on the windshield in that video ? maybe its me ah thats not an eaglet Rich Sennett

I also tried unchecking rain effects in the installer and the droplets were still there, so its not added by PrecipitFX as far I can see. As Rob said, yeah when you goto full screen cockpit view, you get droplets on any aircraft.

December 21, 201411 yr was reading another thread on this product dating as far back as October with impressive views but also concern regards up to 10% drop in fps when using this product
December 22, 201411 yr regards up to 10% drop in fps when using this product I haven't noticed any change in FPS using this product ... it just makes the rain and snow look much better. The contrails extend pretty far and still no hit on FPS. (at least in P3D anyway, don't know about FSX). Cheers, Rob.
December 24, 201411 yr thanks for the update rob was hoping for such feedback, would complete my new p3d install quite nicely cheers
