FrostHydra 5 Report post Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) I was playing war thunder this morning perfectly fine, and after I came back later in the afternoon to play it agian, the game couldn't even launch. The loading bar says "checking files" and takes about 1 min to completely fill up (which normally takes around 5 seconds for me if there's no patches/updates), and then it states "an error occurred". Ive hit the wrench icon at the top right and hit the "check files" button as I read on an older thread this resolved the issue, but it did nothing for me. Ive restarted the launcher (from steam) and my computer multiple times and I'm frankly confused on what could be causing the issue, as it just appeared out of the blue. After about 10 min of being stuck in this state, the launcher crashes and gives a blank crash log.

relliK 3,227 Report post Posted May 9, 2020 maybe it was related to the new patch that has just been released ?! (https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/486077-update-09052020-197188/) it may not have been distributed to all CDNs at the time you tried to launch / update the game... so i'd say 'try again now' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostHydra 5 Report post Posted May 17, 2020 Here's the log from today. I can't really interpret anything from it, but I hope it can help someone solve the issue. 2020_05_16_21_18_50_2946.txt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relliK 3,227 Report post Posted May 17, 2020 hmm... to me this looks like there is an issue with EasyAntiCheat (EAC). Quote LT: game stat (/Users/headadmin/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/War Thunder/WarThunderLauncher.app/Contents/WarThunder.app/Contents/Resources/game/EasyAntiCheat/easyanticheat.bundle/Contents/Resources/easyanticheat.icns) error: Not a directory File system error 20 Stats "error.disk" sent An error 5 occured 87.44 [D] Downloader status: An error occured 87.44 [D] LT: game ERROR: Not a directory unfortunately i dont know anything about the Mac file system and error codes but i would guess that the easyanticheat.icns is indeed not a directory but a file instead (EAC file / menu bar / task manager icons ?!) and if i understand the log correctly i'd say there is no EAC at all since Quote Couldn't get stat for file /Users/headadmin/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/War

file is not present at all or the access is restricted / denied. so no clue tbh =/ since there is no EasyAntiCheat option / tickbox shown on the Mac Launcher (just above the play button where the 'work in progress' option is located) i thought EAC is implemented in a different way on Macs (or even 'not at all') Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostHydra 5 Report post Posted May 18, 2020 Well that sucks, they must of removed something in one of the patches then. Because the only thing I have ever added/removed from war thunder's files are user made skins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
