A question, are the interior and exterior icing visuals generated automatically my the sim, or do they have to be created by the developer for each model, by creating and placing textures etc?

Regardless, they look great on the default aircraft!

 

I was messing around with rain and snow while sitting on the ground in the 172 and it was pretty cool watching the ice from. I opened the cabin heat but didn't get enough time to test to see if the windows would thaw out. Does anyone know if they do?"

The physics that handle icing conditions are in the sim and so are the default texture and animation assets. Third party developers can choose to use those assets or create their own.
