Volvo window reflections bug

#1 Post by Mecharuva » 14 Apr 2022 04:22

In the Volvo VNL daycab, at least the 4x2 size (I reckon every day cab will be the same), the interior face of the windshield and door windows incorrectly reflects the entire outside world.

In particular this is aggravating/distracting because this results in the road paint lines and signals being reflected through the cab and on the windshield. It's much more difficult to notice in this still image screenshot below, but it is easily noticable when driving. This also results in the reflections of the headlights behind the Volvo being visible on the windshield when they get close, like when a car pulls up behind the truck at a red light stop (albeit this is only when the tractor has no trailer attached, so the car can get close enough).

In the image I've linked below, if you look closely, above the steering wheel and just slightly between it and the GPS, you can see the arrow that's painted on the ground (also visible in the right-hand mirror UI element) and you can also see the line to the right, coming up near the right end of the windshield, just crossing over the end of the right side windshield wiper blade, aiming almost straight toward the dream catcher ornament.

You can also much more easily see one of the lines reflected on the driver's door window, curving up toward the mirror from the corner.

I have driven the T-680, the Peterbilt 379, and the Western Star 49X and none of them have this issue with their window reflections.

I will try to find some way to boost the contrast of the image to make this more apparent, and add that to the post if I can sort that out.

I have attached the game.log.txt file, however I kept getting HTTP errors when trying to attach the screenshot, whether in .png or .jpg format, despite the file being below the 10MiB limit. I uploaded the image to Imgur and made a post image link, right click the image and choose to open the image in a new tab to see it in full resolution. Imgur is weird like that. Please let me know if I need to change this.
