Unfortunately, not a lot has changed since last preview, very sorry about that. I worked a bit more on rain drops on cars shading, especially the way they look under the light. Also, rain drop marks on tracks should look much better at nights now. But for most of time, I was working on all sorts of fixes, especially a fix for one particular issue causing some major stability issues with AMD GPUs (not that it was an AMD fault at all, just that NVIDIA’s driver was more forgiving to my newbie mistake). Hopefully now the whole thing should be more stable in general.

Weather FX integration is in progress (it’s almost ready, actually, just needs some more adjustments), after that, it would just need new audio for sound and some more physics-related adjustments, and it’ll be ready for public release.

Thank you so much for your support and patience!

UPD: A few more fixes, mainly for dynamic shadows.

I tried it quickly now at Bathurst Wetness and water texture improved on track surface. Wipers trace more realistics! My Nvidia GPU got more 5 fps. i’m glad to support the work you do too

Great news, IIja. Did you take a lot at the VR issue? Where one eye is like 2D (not exactly this, but it looks like), for instance the grass in the left eyes is nice, with shadows and everything else, but in the right eye it looks flat, without life and the floor also seems to be above the grass. It was happening in the lights-patch-v0.1.65-preview1-full.zip. My specs are: Windows 10 pro 64 bit Processor: Ryzen 7 3700-X Memory: 16GB 2666 MHZ Ballistics GPU: MSI GTX 1080 Gaming VR: Lenovo Explorer If you need something more detailed, please let me know. Thank you for always bring something better for us. Cheers :)

Thank you for your wonderful work! I am grateful and looking forward to your work. Unfortunately, even in this version, the wiper does not wipe the rain on the front window of the Mercedes. (You can check it with the unmodified kunos model Mercedes SLS AMG GT3.) But I know Ilja is taking on other difficult tasks. I will continue to wait for you to fix it. I will say it again. Thank you for your wonderful work !!

Has RainFx gone from the settings?

Great stuff. Thanks for your continued hard work...

It might be helpful to give a few examples of which cars wipers specifically do not work (particularly if those are Kunos cars).

The wipers have seemed to stop working on some cars. The first one I noticed was the 488 Evo DLC from Ferrari.

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but will rain sounds be added back at some point in the future? or will it be gone forever? Cheers:)

Things are looking so great, Ilya! Can't wait for Weather FX! Though, I'm finding the spray from opponents is so opaque that even taillights are obscured. Really difficult to drive with opponents on track. Any chance we could get a density slider for the clouds of spray? I noticed that disabling new smoke and dust under Particle FX disables the clouds entirely! EDIT: I found a setting under assettocorsa/extension/config/particles_fx.ini Under [SMOKE_DEV] the limit can be reduced to around 2000 - 4000! Now close racing is possible in the rain! :D Comparison: https://imgur.com/a/uolyT3b

Hey, i cant get things done. i've insalled the path, i do have rain FX in CSP and also SOL, but when i start the game (SOL HeavyRain) i see no rain, only the clouds from SOL app. what i do wrong? tried to change PP filter, and weather script, with no help

i have the same problem, do you have nvidia gpu? Maybe it's not working with new drivers

Hi, the rain effects are gorgeous but...whenever i change the weather ( sun, clear, cloud, haze, fog ) it always rain on my car! Why does it always rain on meeeeeee? is it a bug or is there any chance to set the weather in the right way?

Weather Fx integration, but also sound and other further refinements, will be implemented before the public release. We are here a "small" group accessing preview builds that are not meant to be complete in all aspects.

Still crashing in oculus rift... problem started with 0.1.62 and its still here, all previews tested, all versions past 0.1.61 tested also, all of them crash the same way (crashing the video driver on amd btw I do not have a powerful enough nvidia card to test if it happens on nvidia too). Works fine in single screen, broken in both oculus rift mode and openvr mode. AMD Drivers tested: 20.4.2, 20.8.3, 20.9.1, 20.9.2 Card used: Vega 64

as written before in an answer I noticed that actually the wipers do not work correctly on the cars, I have tried a dozen but the strange thing is that looking at them from the outside it seems that the problem is inside the car as the windows are cleaned on the side external but not internal side. can someone check if the same thing happens to him on cars in which he does not see the wiper working? thank you

thank you very much it seems the optimal setting is 2000 for me.

rain look is improving everytime. Very impressive, Sadly allmost all cars' wipers (windscreen fx) seem not to work anymore like in version 0.1.65 pre1. Maybe there is an issue with creating wipermasks. Some ideas of fixing? Anyway fantastic work!!. Keep on going Ilja :)

For me this version is somehow not recognized by CM

yes for me too but I solved it by installing it manually and not through cm

Okay, with 1.66 and 1.67, my AMD gpu (5600 XT) is now able to run with New smoke and dust active in the Particles FX without crashing, but the spray has a very gray, smokey look to it, as though it is picking up too much reflection from the track surface. Is this a known issue, or can you recommend other adjustments I can try to render the spray more white/clear? Thanks so much for getting this far!

Ilja, good morning before anything. I just had a very weird issue with Content Manager, I was watching videos in YouTube while CM was opened in the background and the videos started to stutter all of a sudden and the GPU started to heat up to 60°(when im watching videos it basically stays at 30°-35°) and the fan started to spin much faster, when I went to see what was happening it was CM using 100% of the GPU... do you know what happened there?

Anonymous

1.67 has been interesting, idk if its just my install but rain sounds have just disappeared entirely and every so often by complete random as far as im concerned ill load back into the game and the wipers will just not actually wipe anything otherwise love the new wet maps and everything Edit: the reason the wipers stop wiping anything is because since CSP isnt synced with SOL yet you can't start the game in rainy conditions, you have to start in any non-rainy conditions then you can switch to per say "thunderstorm" in game and it should work fine... not entirely sure how that works but just a note for anyone with the same problem

Just a little heads up: ferrari 488 gt3 is one of the cars with wipers not wiping away rain.

Did you pointed Ilja about your findings on wipers? This is really a nasty bug to find I have 2 PC (a PC on the SIM rig and a Notebook for modding ) and even if with the same identical CSP, SOL and AC settings on one wipers are not working where the other is working with no prob. I tried you workaround and I have to say that now I'm able to have working wipers on both. I think it could be an useful info for Ilja to sort out the problem, even if I can imagine that once Weather_FX integration will be implemented everything should work correctly.

The raindrops in the puddles during replays were amazing detail I've never seen before. Everything is running as it should for me exept doing replays with the wipers active.

Awesome work ! ,on my side, i want to give you my return of experience with this preview : on some cars, totally randomly, some rain drops are entering in the car, like if the wipers are sending the rain through the windshield. Ican't witin the total integration to weather system, 'cause it's a bit weird to cut off the rain when i wanna race in sunny weather. At least, a good point about SOL 1.61 automatic wipers is now working very well ! Keep up the good job !!!

Hi. I love your job! I installed Sol 2.0 with this last build of yours and I have no idea but, game crashes right after loading weather FX. I only play in vr. I had a little glimpse of the game as soon as I installed Sol and the shader. I tried to play this morning but it doesn't load at all. Could you give me any suggestion on how to fix it? Appreciate it! Keep up your awesome job

hello I wanted to know if in the future there is a way to see the puddles without activating the voice reflections in the graphic options because even if set to the minimum it is one of those functions that eats a lot of fps especially in vr. thank you

Hey there good people! Considering I'm an only 2$ per month donor I didn't want to bother anybody with rain not working on my PC after I did a clean install and tried everything I could find here in these comments. Now, I really want to get it working. I appreciate Ilja's work and will be supporting him in the future. So, I have installed all new versions of the CSP and currently, the newest is installed but can't get the option "Debug rain" in the weather effects. Any clues? Thank you so much in advance!

wipers dont wipe the rain away with this update

Works only for some cars in the later previews and will surely get fixed soon, I'm sure it's a priority. If you switch to older versions of csp's rain preview you will notice the wipers will work in some versions. For now I choose to stay with the latest preview and enjoy the rain from one of the cars that works, of which there are plenty.

mine is not even loading after updating to this new version. I know the developer might be busy preparing new builds but, in my case it's unusable. Deleting, reinstalling AC, quitting this build , for now. No support at all!

Илья большое тебе спасибо за твой труд! Ассетка выглядит круто-как никогда прежде. Дождь на стеклах - впечатляет, особенно в VR! Некоторые трассы выглядят просто отлично, промокают, блестят и появляются лужи. А некоторые вообще не хотят "промокать" так и остаются сухими. И это есть на трассах куносов. Барселона - например. Я так понимаю нужно что-то менять в config track?

I have a question. Apologies if it's been asked and answered before. Are the puddles in RainFx placed randomly or are they related to the road mesh? I can see there tends to be water at the side of the track but there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to the water across the track. Does the water flow downhill or across the road camber and if so I wonder how that is modeled in terms of absorption and drainage? I am probably overthinking this but the whole thing of dynamic weather and now the new RainFx seems so miraculous to me, I am wondering where the limits are. This also brings up the tyre model. Someone was pointing out recently about the unrealistic tyre grip in AC needing to be compensated for with the rear roll bar. But water brings up a whole load of new problems. It's certainly not good enough just to treat water as a slippier surface as the old wet tracks seemed to do. There is the question of water dispersion by different tyre profiles - ordinary road tyres, slicks vs intermediates vs full wets etc. This becomes important if there are significant amounts of water on the track. If you try a car with broad racing tyres at say Brands Hatch with RainFx cranked up, it is just about possible to get round and drive with a reasonable degree of realism and fun. This is in itself unrealistic as far as slick or semi-slick tyres are concerned as they would be pretty unmanageable in those conditions in real life. But it's liveable with. if however I take out a road car with narrower tyres (I took the new Ferrari Lusso) I can't even make it round at any real speed as the car gets hopelessly bogged down in the puddles (with a big jolt to the steering wheel - quite good, tells me I've hit deep water!) and spins out very unrealistically. I wonder if anyone's thinking about a new tyre model with water dispersion related to the real characteristics of that tyre. It would make wet races amazing with stops required to put on wets and back again as the rain clears up and the line dries etc.

I have CSP (CSP 0.167) and SOL 2.0 Beta 7. With the rain the windshield wipers do not clean the water from the glass, it worked well the first day (I cleaned them well) and now with the same car and the same circuit (Ford Escort and Silberstone ) the rain doesn't clean me. I have tried deactivating the RSR app, I have uninstalled CSP and SOL, I have reinstalled and nothing, it is still wrong. I have no idea what could have happened. All I did was practice at Silverstone and it worked, then I wanted to do a race and it didn't work anymore, I went back to Practice and it didn't work anymore. Thank you and sorry for my translated English. continue like this with your work

Hi, Amazing work! Mod looks and works great. However I have a couple of problems. First the rain doesnt affect the windscreeen meaning it doesnt decrease visibility and wipers when they are moving dont seem to move the rain drops .. they just move and the rain keeps falling. Second, there is no water spray from the cars when they are moving. How can i fix these issues? Thanks.

yeah same with me. also..

For everyone who have the issue "windscreen wipers function normally, but they do not affect the rain".
