I seem to remember this effect. i actually trawled through my old CD collection last night to see if I could find any of my old il2 stuff. Turned up some cool suprises, one of which was the original beta v1 (from June 2001) of the game. i tried this (had to turn my PC clock back to 2001 to get it to work) but the raindrop effect wasn't in it. It was a very lkimited beta as it was the first just the quick mission builder and Multiplay. unfortunately I must have lost all the beta patches I had for the game (shame) But it was a real trip down memory lane (anyone remember that really hideous Phsycadelic green 109 skin :?:
I wish I still had those Beta patches cos I am sure the effect turned up on one of those. Oh well, If someone has the original demo and the effect is in that , that would be great.
