    Hi,

    I’m new to German trains but can activate the wipers. However, whenever precipitation falls it doesn’t clear off the window screens and just blocks the view with the wipers on. Is this a known issue?

    thanks,

    James

    Sorry the 423 and 430.

    Not too sure if the photo shows the issue clearly

    DTG, how is it possible that such errors slip through your checks?

    Someone else has already mentioned this in the feedback thread for Frankfurt S-Bahn.
    Something so obvious should have been the first thing to be fixed in yesterday's patch.
    It's outrageous, because it means you can't drive in the rain.

    Thats is a bug for sure should have been fixedin yesterday's patch. I mean £30 for a route in such a shittttyy state is unacceptable.

    It makes it really difficult/impossible to drive. The only way to clear the window screen is to go to exterior cam and then return to the cab. I’m really disappointed in DTG. I spent a lot on this and the layer packages to have this very basic issue. Surely something as basic as wipers is tested before a product releases?

    Perhaps DTG Matt can comment or at least one of the moderators to explain how such a basic function is not working post release and post patch?

    I can't reproduce this problem with the 430. I didn't notice anything like this prior to the last patch either,
    my wipers have been working perfectly since the Frankfurt S-Bahn release.

    Have you installed any (outdated) mods that could cause problems on this route, even if they are not directly related to
    Frankfurt S-Bahn?

    Hi,

    No mods specific to any of these effects.

    I take back what I said about the Frankfurt 423, it does indeed have broken wipers (I accidentally selected the Munich 423).
    My bad, sorry for the confusion.
