    very nice... seems like the telephone wires in the first one have something wrong with the shadow.

    No, there's nothing wrong with the shadow - it just switches to lesser quality further away from camera. That's how cascaded shadowmaps work.
    Of course one could say shadows need higher resolution, but that's just a matter of balance between qality and performance.

    So what you basically see is not an error, but just aliasing resulting from shadow quality dropping (aliasing on the shadowmap itself, not on the screen).

    It had actually stopped raining on that particular part of the circuit...and that lady in the beige dress has a 'cone head' anyway ;). She doesn't need an umbrella;).
    It was still raining at La Source when I got there and on the Kemmel straight. It was a really cool effect. ISI really got that aspect down nicely. I had to really back out of the throttle and feel out the wet bits. Very slippery.

    RIGHT! I wet my pants driving this and realizing I am just an inch to far out to make the (slight) turn and looking at my speedometer, telling me I drive 260 km/h.........the telephone pole is inevitable, nothing you can do.......
    Scares the crap out of me even behind my computer!
    What a balls did those guys have!

    To be brutally honest the wet weather effects don't look that great at the moment. The shiny wet track with bone dry buildings looks really unnatrual. I hope its something that can be addressed at some stage. We really need tyre spray aswell.

    Here are some, but with rain not fully turned on yet (rain drops, spray and stuff?) don't look as good as they could, but am sure things will get better over time :)

    @SimonV6.... Very nice screenshots.
    Those two in-car, really show the nice job ISI did with wet weather effects. That track looks so slick.
    Keep them coming.

    @DJCruicky... Nice comparison. Isn't Google Streets great?
