• A bug when switching to premium piston aircraft in the hangar where the engine propeller might change the position has been fixed.
• A bug that caused the position of the propeller blades to be different when viewed from the cockpit and from 3rd person view has been fixed.

Interface

• Display of the current and maximum allowed mass has been added to the suspended weaponry edit window. Also displaying the mass for each pod has been added to the drop-down suspended weaponry menu.

Photo mode is still bugged for me

Hey folks,

 

can someone tell me, what this means?

AGM-65s seem to have issues beyond their target tracking range, when launching above 15km the AGM-65D will almost always lose track and explode in mid air, is this normal?

[Ub3rshadow 874]

The lofting for AGM-65s is awesome, but is there any chance of increasing the render distance when using targeting pods? The range increase is mostly nullified by tanks only drawing within 13-17km or so, and this also means that you're extremely vulnerable to pansirs if you try and do popup attacks from long range to avoid getting swatted by a SAM. The AGMs are still extremely slow by the time they near impact from this range, and can be shot down, but increasing draw distance would even the playing field somewhat so that strike aircraft can reliably eliminate inattentive SPAAs.

Please for the love of God give us the option to turn it off

I'm still having issues with moving my camera with Nvidia Ansel.
I can open it up just fine the first time (With some movements stuck a bit), I can take my pictures and all. Just after closing it and keep playing the replay and if I try to open Ansel again it won't let me move the camera, or use keys to move within Ansel menus and settings. and if I press Escape to close it, it opens War Thunder's Escape menu instead (It was like this even before the update tho).
