Why did they get rid of the water on the windshield effect in FSX? I kinda liked that in FS9.

The short answer is that as the developers updated the graphical system used for FSX, they lost the ability to render the small droplets running on the glass. Perhaps it will come back someday.Jeff ShylukSenior Staff Reviewer, Avsim

Elephants were a priority so rain drops had to go

>Elephants were a priority so rain drops had to go The last thing I want on my windshield is an elephant LOL

>Elephants were a priority so rain drops had to go Don't be hard on ACES, the better looking virtual cockpits more likely required the change to the system that doesn't support the animated raindrops. It's very likely that the raindrops effect will return in FS11.

>Elephants were a priority so rain drops had to go :-lol .
