Hi, I've searched a lot but not been able to find anything.

Every time I go to a track with wet conditions selected, I only see the spray from the tyres for about 10 seconds, and then it disappears. In fact it disappears just after the pit messages in the top right disappear, but I don't think it's related since I disabled those by turning off automatic pit works.

It happens in replays too, if I fast forward immediately I still have spray, but again, the ten seconds or so.

I've tried turning off AA, different resolutions etc, but always the same. Quite annoying. Anybody able to help?

Running 7 64bit

Intel G860 cpu and HD7770 with 9.2.0.0 drivers

Unable to help, but I can confirm the issue (in my case, KS2 at Misano with 100% rain, spray only during the first meters into pitlane, then nothing - I didn't check replays though).

This glitch is really bugging me, does nobody have any suggestions? Surely we can't be the first to have experienced it.

The only solution for now is - I guess - using the "old" netKar version for wet conditions. Here you find a handy tool to select the netKar version of choice (really a nice utility):

This bug annoys me to, all rain atmosphere is gone, no sprays behind vehicles.

Is any change to fixing it from KUNOS if we send them report? It looks like simple thing, just something bad configured. I have read somewhere it is maybe something with tires heat, but I don't know.

hi guys, noob here just popped in from GPL.  Want to purchase the full sim but thought i better try it first. Everything loads and I can start an offline test, I can see the trees the sky the steering wheel but not the track or the walls etc?  Any ideas?

 

cheers

Without knowing your PC configuration it's difficult to give any suggestion. Please post it.

You might need to update DirectX or use different video driver. If I recall correctly minimum requirements increased a bit during time. I'm not sure your card supports DirectX 9.0c.

I suppose you definitely need to update your hardware, it's really obsolete now.
