These configs add wiper animations and wobbly wipers to the most of the URD cars that don't come with a pre-baked wiper animation but still have wiper mesh in the model.

This pack includes configs for the following cars:
urd_egt_am, urd_egt_ferruccio, urd_egt_ferruccio2, urd_egt_venom, urd_egt_venom2, urd_jt5_2016_shiro_r1, urd_jt5_2016_shiro_r2, urd_jt5_2016_shiro_r3, urd_mercedes_clr_lm, urd_px1_aura, urd_px1_darche, urd_px1_darche_s1, urd_px1_revolution, urd_px1_revolution_v6, urd_px1_shiro, urd_t5_aura, urd_t5_aura_2015, urd_t5_bayro, urd_t5_bayro_2015, urd_t5_maures, urd_t5_maures_2015

There are some URD mods that don't come with wipers at all which I'm trying to add wipers via CSP extension as well in the next days or weeks:
URD has released wiper configs for their T5 2018 mods a while back, the link to their official Dropbox folder can be found in the README.

This only works in-game, it won‘t animate the wipers in the showroom. Rift CV1 users are known to have problems with CSP wipers but it seems that there will be a yet to be released CSP version addressing this issue.

Prerequisites:
The configs were tested and confirmed to work with CSP v0.1.77 and v0.1.78preview1, however you'll need to have one of the CSP preview versions installed to get any rain into the game. Subscribing to Ilja Jusupov's Patreon gives you access to the preview versions plus you'll get a key to unlock Content Manager (the link to redeem the CM key on itch.io will be included in the Patreon subscription confirmation mail).

Installation:
There are two options to install the configs:
  1. All configs in a centralized folder:
    The downloaded ini file goes into [drive_letter]:\[path_to_steam]\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\extension\config\cars\loaded (make sure the file name is equal to the folder name of the car plus the .ini extension).

    Beware:
    This is the shared configs location where content manager downloads configs to automatically from the Custom Shaders Patch Github and there is a potential risk that the files might get overwritten by Content Manager at some point or that Content Manager skips downloading any extension configs available in the Github repository because it thinks the one installed is already the newer one.

    Example:
    Copy urd_egt_am.ini to [drive_letter]:\[path_to_steam]\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\extension\config\cars\loaded\urd_egt_am.ini

  2. Mod & config in one folder:
    Copy the [mod_name].ini into the mod's extension folder (might not yet exist) and add a reference to it in the existing ext_config.ini. If there's no existing ext_config.ini you can either create one from scratch or just rename [mod_name].ini to ext_config.ini. This circumvents the problem with Content Manager automatically overwriting configs from the CSP Github repo. Please note that when updating the mod using the "Clean installation" option in Content Manager the extension config will be deleted/overwritten as well.

    Example:
    Copy urd_egt_am.ini to [drive_letter]:\[path_to_steam]\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\content\cars\urd_egt_am\extension and insert the following line into ext_config.ini:
    [INCLUDE: urd_egt_am.ini]
Tweaking the wiper wobbling:
If you don't like the wobbly wipers you can either disable it completely by removing the [WIPERS] block completely or tweak it to your liking, just play with the values. I usually load the car into a practice session on the Kunos Drag strip to tweak the wipers.

INI:
; wobbly wipers
[WIPERS]
WIND_THRESHOLDS_KMH = 110, 220 ; speed for wipers to start vibrating and for maximum vibration
WIND_AMPLITUDE_MULT = 1.0      ; multiplier for amplitude
WIND_FREQUENCY_MULT = 1.0      ; multiplier for frequency
WIND_OFFSET = 0.03             ; base animation

Brilliant and thank you so much for breathing some new life into these. It's a shame URD did make a little effort to update their older mods, but I guess that's what the community is for. That being said, I wish I'd known you were doing these earlier, then I wouldn't have gone the challenging route by doing all of this in Blender for the PX cars and the EGT AM LOL. At least now I can skip the others and just enjoy your work :)
Hi - good work ! I still have two URD cars, and the windshield wipers don't work either. Is unfortunately not part of the great work of yours. 1. urd_egt_darche 2. urd_egt_bayro - Maybe you could take a look and see if there's anything you can do about it. Thanks very much ! Rob

Thanks for the kind words. URD have "official" wiper configs for their T5 2018 mods in their dropbox. Link can be found in the readme or on their socials.
Great job, hope you can do more in the future
