I can't see rain on the windscreen and wipers do not work. Who can help me?

[Rubenking890]

I have a problem in assetto corsa. I installed sol wheater mod, the latest costum shaders patch and the wet track mod. I also installed the shaders extension rain app. When i go into a race(launched from content manager) with rain enabled, i hear the rain dropping and there is a trail of water behind my car when i drive, the track i quite slippery as well but when i go in to the car behind the wheel, i cant see any rain drops on the windscreen. My wipers also don't work. So i opened the shaders extension rain app, but in the app the rain is already set to max and my wipers too. But in the car i don't see any rain or wipers. Does someone have a solution please? You would really help me out of this...

I've NEVER gotten rain to appear in the car. On the track, nowhere. I don't really drive AC or any sim really just for fun so I never bothered with it. But it's really bugging me now that I've tried for the past half an hour to get any sort of rain effect anywhere in the game and it just seems non existent to me.

I am not a Patron, I just have the latest version of CSP installed and as far as I know the latest version of SOL as well.

enable car instruments in csp for wipers,and particles for rain drops

Could you check in Content Manager if the Windscreen FX is well enabled in the Settings/Custom Shaders Patch ?

( Windscreen FX is used to draw rain drops ).

 

[Sascha Guenther]

Ahm this only works on certain modded cars. I think you tried it with a mod car? Try Kunos ones instead.

I had the same problem atm.
Windscreen FX was on, but no wiperblades cleaned the windscreen.

The solution: untick Use new windscreen effect in Rain FX settings panel

As been said and mentioned a few times in different answers, Rain FX is only still beta and reserved for only the people of Ilja's Patreon.

Only those who made a donation in this patreon have access to this beta.
The free version will be available later when everything's ready ... hopefully.

Rain was for the moment taken out of CSP in its latest versions.

So are rain drops no longer available in SOL? Been struggling to get this to work with no luck.

PS

I have the full version of Content Manager

 

[Jempy]

With the latest updates ... they are not available any longer.
If a message I saw somewhere else is correct, it shouldn't take too long before public RainFX is available with a new CSP version.

For now beta version is still only available with Ilja's Patreon if nothing changed recently.
And I suppose it's only working on some already modified tracks.

Wiper blades and rain drops always worked without a donation ( only puddles and rain fx on the cars etc. needs supporters version. )

I'm not talking about FREE version of CSP I've got the latest 0.1.72-preview1 installed on my PC
Some cars have trouble only for one side of wiper blades - one of them for the left , sometimes for the right, sometimes for both.

I have the same issue. Do you know how to solve it? I mean the trouble with one side of wipers not working!

No, still no one answered it. I have no clue how to solve it or avoid to see this malfunction

To get wipers to clear rain drops:

Under assettocorsa/extension/config/cars/loaded open the cars .ini file.

Open content manager and open the car in the cm showroom. Click on the wiper and click on the windscreen and get the name of each mesh.
Add these lines to the ini file:

[WIPERS_TRACE_...]
SURFACE = name of glass goes here
WIPERS = name of wiper goes here

So, for example, I added

[WIPERS_TRACE_...]
SURFACE =EXTglass001
WIPERS =GEO_Wiper

to the rss ferruccio 55. Maybe you can add it to the extension file under content instead, I don't know. Maybe there are 2 wiper meshes for cars that have 2 wipers and you have to add both names? Maybe seperated by a comma? I don't know. But this works for 1 wiper.

 

[suby56]

Example. Although wiper doesn't show in the screenshot, you can see the cleared area.

I can't adjust the rain strength on Shaders Extension Rain.
Can someone help me please?

So, first make sure you have SOL 2.0.2 installed by following the guide here https://www.dropbox.com/s/7c1zklm806xbmy3/Sol 2_0 install guide.pdf?dl=0 if you just tried to drag and drop SOL into CM it won't work as I had the same problem. Basically you just need to uninstall and reinstall SOL the right way, and just to be safe, reinstall CSP (I'm using the latest 1.73 preview version). Also if you want rain PHYSICS (which I didn't know existed until a few days ago) activate these.
First is a box under Drive in CM settings and then tick this box. Rain Tires should now show up as an option when setting up your car. Also, have fun......cause it completely changes how the car handles as well. ATM only a few have actual textures for the tires.
