Dust on windscreen

08-07-2003, 04:27 PM

When racing in for example Australia, I can see a great gradual build-up of dust on the windows of the car (and the car itself), including the windscreen. That is, however, I see it in the replay in the outside views and in the backseat camera, but not when the camera is in the driver seat (either when I'm driving myself or during replay). Is there anyone who does see dust during driving?

By the way, the same goes for damage to the windscreen. Great in outside views, nothing to see when behind the wheel...

Nope I don´t see any dust either when in Carview in Australia.

By the way there is no way I will drive the car from the drivers seat!

I like the perspective behind the car, because I get a better feeling for the proportions of the car.

I think they left any dustbuilding out, because it costs to much graphic or processor power.

I think you're right about the dust build-up eating processor time. But I would have liked it as an option

Of course then the windscreen wipers have to be able to be switched on as well, to get the dirt off the windscreen again

Anyway I agree that driving with the view from the driver seat is harder, but that's why I like it

And I think it gives a better impression of what rally driving feels like

But that's just my 10 cts...
