Windshield Icing - unable to see. Xplane 12.

Hello, 

On several occasions now, I have found the windshield has fogged up or frozen, and have been unable to see outside. 
I have worked through the icing procedures, but have had no success - only option is to fly at low altitude with above freezing temps. 
 

Tonight I was attempting to depart from KDLH and they had freezing temps with snow. I deiced as per normal procedure and ensured the icing system was working and turned on but the windshield would not defog or deice. 
 

Does anyone have any solutions? 
 

thanks

Right now it looks like a recent version of the simulator introduced the issue and Laminar Research are figuring out what happened. Hopefully we’ll see a bug fix soon.

Is there an "official" bug filed that can be tracked?

Wow … this was reported for X-Plane 12.05 already. We‘re now at 12.07 and no fix yet? Is there any possibility to disable the windshield icing effects? This makes the sim basically unusable during winter time.

You can try this untested script as a workaround https://github.com/pilsnerish/FlyWithLua-Scripts/blob/main/CL650_window_heat.lua
