[Released] Realistic Rain Storm

This realistic rain storm is a collection of effects to create a highly realistic, atmospheric thunder storm.

The rain particle effects consist of a dense downpour of rain along with ground splashes and puddle ripples. Simply drop the effect into your scene.

The lightning is scripted to be completely random so the lightning bolt’s size, timing, duration, animation and location are never the same. The light direction from the bolt flashes is accurately simulated too.

Sound effects are also supplied, including the rain and different thunder claps (these are also scripted for variation on type and volume).

A large collection of assets that make up the demonstration scene are also included, consisting of tile-able road pieces (straight, curved, crossroads, crossing, etc) and lamp posts, along with the night sky with animating clouds.

Additional effects such as smaller separate splashes to put on top of scene objects are also supplied.

WOW! Excellent job!

Yeah this looks real nice, my only crit is the water splashes are all the same, there is no variation.

Very nice, however, the splashes are too high. I live in an area that has frequent torrential rainfalls, and I have never seen splashes that high! :slight_smile:

Thanks for all the feedback. Much appreciated. Will take a look at the splash variation and size (although I will say that the camera is very low in the video whch does make them look extra big).

Version 1.2 is now available which includes a local version of the rain effect, only showing particles near to the camera.

For a great complimentary effect, the Camera Lens Rain is now also available: Unity Asset Store - The Best Assets for Game Making

Version 1.3 is available, now including Unity 5 support.

Version 1.4 is available, now including an alternative version of the rain effect that collides with the environment.

Does this work on single pass VR???

It got removed from the Asset Store and now I cannot download it =/
What happened? I bought it a long time ago.
