Hi all, I am also looking into this issue like Nik.
the needs are:
1.Rain drops must appear on the screen when in fps (car driving) camera mode
2.They dont need to move, but their numbers will increase in time and make it
difficult to see the environment.
3.When activated a wiper will rotate on
I'm going to preface my comment by saying I've never done an effect like this
before. I am, however, interested in how this could be accomplished.
Adding in the wiper effect adds a particularly difficult layer of complexity to
an effect like this.
I would still suggest using a shader to do

Bring a laptop to Scotland and sit outside. Right now you'll get an

I'd use a pixel shader for the effects. Pass in the texture that represents the
snow overlay and have the shader scale the alpha up and down as it accumulates.
Rain would be handled the same way but you'd have to come up with a way to make
the water droplets move around on the screen. That
Thanks Steven .. good hint!

actually, not a a bad idea ... people with John Nesh fortune could probably
figure out the algorithm then ;-)

A company I used to work for which did driving sims, mining trucks in

Pixelmaps or billboard textures might be the OpenGL terminology. Animation
studios might use the term Particle Systems. 1980's game programmers would
probably use the term sprites, especially if their motion changed when you
moved. In this case blowing off as the vehicle moved.
For snow, they
Thank you !!!
Andrew, your approach was the first that crossed my mind But not too
much of a fan of it. More into what Michael is proposing ... Thanks again
