Graphics - Rain wiper moving affects the road reflections (1579386)

When the windscreen wipers move from side to side, they leave behind a strange trail or “ghosting”, as if trying to erase the textures on the track or something. Doesn’t appear to be a visual effect but an artifact.

Performance RT. Haven’t tried it without RT.

There’s no fix for that. That’s caused by the SSR reflection on the track.

Well, it’s terrible and looks cartoonist. I don’t seem to remember seeing this in other Forza games or even racing games I’ve been playing on the Xbox One, One X, series X, etc

look at the Corvette Stingray 2020 and the Forza Edition and probably at other cars too when the wipers go up the rain drops on the glass and when they come down the raindrops where wiped up like the wipers get up, the wipers and drop animation do the opposite of what they should do. :sweat_smile:

Yeh it’s very distracting while driving. I hope they’ve added this to the list of things to be fixed. Hate using cockpit view while it’s raining because of this.

This is an SSR artifact. Not much can be done about it (beside not using SSR on track)

Well, it’s terrible and doesn’t look realistic at all. What are we to do on Xbox then?

Also, the wipers do not wipe off the windscreen like they do IRL. It looks like the car has miniature wipers wiping off only half the windscreen from top to bottom if that makes sense.

Same issue here and it makes the car undriveable from the cockpit. See video below:

This issue seems to have been mitigated in Update 5.
It’s a lot less noticeable now.

Hmm, but still there, unfortunately.
