[Forwarded][08/11/2019] Launcher freezes on a blank page

[Pirillo 99]

After 1.93 version, the game lancher freezes on a blank page.

 

It works only ONE TIME if the game is deleted and downloaded again. At the second launch the loops starts again.

I've already tried to delete the .yup file without success.

 

I Attached the laucher's log along with a screen's hardcopy at the moment of the error. There is no .clog because it happens before I start the game

 

The file error.zip contains the log and the screen's hardcopy at moment of the error. The other two files are the lancher's and the client log of the first run after the game's reinstallation. I prefixed the files with the suffix "File_" to preserve the order of creation.

 

The laucher's log is flooded by messages similar to the following:

Hello @Pirillo,

 

This issue has already been reported however I have added your files and info to the report.

 

As a workaround for now however you can keep your install up to date by using use the old "updater" launcher which should still work, So this command in your main "WarThunder" directory:

./updater

This will also launch the game after updating. If you do not have this in your main "WarThunder" directory, I have attached it to this post, Just extract the two files into your main "WarThunder" directory.

 

WT-updater.zip

 

This is not a recommended way of keeping your WT install up to date and is not officially supported. This is just a way of you continuing to play the game for now.

Thanks Apemax!
