Precipitation showing up on only have of the screen

Postby flyingfisch » Mon Oct 06, 2014 10:09 pm

In cockpit view, precipitation is only visible on one half of the screen. In other views, it is visible looking at the plane from the right side, but moving the camera to the left causes the precipitation to disappear. Also, precipitation is visible inside the cockpit, which is slightly amusing. Is there a way to fix this?
