wait, if it's this simple to fool the game into putting weather on tracks that don't support weather... why didn't PD just include weather on all of the tracks? :odd: So strange! Nice find!

This weather glitch can work in GT5 as well. I wanted to find out if it will work on GT6 as well, and it did :D.

I was the only one (EDIT: some people) who founded this glitch working in GT6. Want me to create a room of this glitch?

thanks to the Let's Race video, i've been driving 'round London, in the p***ing rain all afternoon, having got back from driving around in the p***ing rain in London at work all day today :) Realism at last ! :p:tup:

Seriously tho, the rain in London was going SIDEWAYS at certain points today haha :lol:

I recommend going to Tsukuba, then doing the weather switch to Charmonix, taking your in car brightness ( EV +/- ? ) option down to -1.0, making sure you set your weather to 100%, fixed with 100% track water ( tho not sure if that registers, i might be wrong ) for a really atmospheric race :)

Haven't been able to do time, as of yet, ( London - using Nurburging 24hr options ) as the rain works, but even though you can change the time in the options ( Nurb options ) it doesn't affect the London track.

I guess, of course, we're "glitching" weather in, but a day/night cycle must be a whole other set of coding rules that can't be affected by this ? Hope that someone does find a way 'round that sometime tho :) IF it can be done at all. But A snowy London at night would be aces.

I'm guessing that there are no textures for lit buildings and streets for London, so the game would just show a powerless ghost town, if you could "glitch" day/night cycles :lol:

Forgive my ignorance on this too, as i have no idea, how they change the textures ( if at all ) during a day/night cycle in this game? Is it just lighting effects or do "night-time" textures load in during the race, as it were ? I genuinley have no idea, but would like to know how they do it :O

I sometimes turn the EV to -1.0. It's more realistic. The lighting effects of the car will be on while it's raining.
 
I've been testing several tracks but none reflected the changes in the time. I guess you can only enable rain/snow but not move the sun.
Has anyone been able to change the daytime?
 
24hr Nurburg, with Chamonix 100% settings looks pretty great too :) It cancels out the 24 hour day/night cycle unfortunately , but is stuck on a time, that is pretty dark, so you can simulate racing in snow, late in the evening :)

My time setting for 24 hour nurb, are 11.30 ( am i assume ), but it looks a lot later in the day.

I never thought to set the Nurb time before i switched to Chamonix settings, so maybe setting the Nurb time to late at night, THEN switching to Chamonix settings will keep it late ? I assume not tho, i imagine it will revert back to 11.30, as is probably the Chamonix default time setting...

Still looks great tho :)

Also appears that the track stays at 0% wet setting, no matter how you set it.
 
This is a picture of the GT Arena with Matterhorn weather settings.
My TV's brightness is a little low.

The time settings work correctly, and it makes this track more darker than usual :D
