Apple MacOS client interface display bug. Error in red translucent texture map

ModelerTer · August 4, 2025, 10:01am

After updating the current version of the client, when entering the garage queue interface, the options and dynamic icons will display a red translucent texture error, and the item interface will show broken icons. Sometimes, the aiming crosshair will be covered in red, obscuring the gun sight and telescope.
My Mac：
27inch iMac 2014 late
macOS Big Sur 11.7.10
CPU: i7 4790
RAW: 32GB DDR3
GPU: AMD Radeon R9 M290X 2GB
SSD: 1T

Please check and fix it.

press the wrench on the War Thunder launcher. I got this after the levithan update then it got fixed so you shall try it aswell. There is a button called “check file”.

(And if present, clear the cache folder, and the compiledShaders folder while you’re at it) ((Both in the game folder))

(((Then verify files again)))

I have done it two times, the interface still red. (T_T)

I wonder what files they are, and where to delete and verify to bring them back… xD

(Maybe try empty the UI folder in the game folder and re-verify game files)

Try downloading the game again aswell. and also software update your laptop. My War thunder run pretty much better after the software update. Your very outdated.

I didn’t even check the version, if that is different, something not working right at all.

O_Warrior0 · August 4, 2025, 11:07am

This is the version I played on before levithan update. Lot of problems after the levithan update drop and also my computer started spamming me to update it so I did it and everything is fixed. After the software update.

FlyingDoctor · August 4, 2025, 11:08am

lol I thought it was a game version descrepancy.

Good thinking.

O_Warrior0 · August 4, 2025, 11:11am

follow my step of how to fix the issue and is that traditional chinese simplifed? or Korean or Japanese???

O_Warrior0 · August 4, 2025, 11:12am

current update gaijin is 2.47.0.77.

Gaijin has terrible integration with macs, at least intel based ones.
Try bootcamp maybe

FlyingDoctor · August 4, 2025, 11:15am

OS should be up to date though before going all crazy on it xD

O_Warrior0 · August 4, 2025, 11:16am

Bootcamp got discontinued for Intel macs.

O_Warrior0 · August 4, 2025, 11:17am

My normal game is about 55fps after that software update… it now over 180…

kitsune_qq · August 4, 2025, 11:18am

I still have it(IBMP A2141), maybe for older ones tho.

ModelerTer · August 6, 2025, 9:24am

Yes. I had finished update my MacOS to Sequoia 15.6, with OpenCore patcher. (Because my iMac too old. The official normal upgrade did not support upgrading to this version of the system) Mostly bug had been fixed, except for the aircraft damage schematic diagram in the lower left corner, which still displays errors.

ModelerTer · August 6, 2025, 9:28am

It is Chinese. I also have tried English and Russian client, they all show display bug.

FlyingDoctor · August 6, 2025, 12:47pm

You may need to look at a newer mac if you can’t figure this out.

I hadn’t noticed it was 2014. I just installed the game on an old laptop last month and it didn’t handle it.

Could try linux if you’re confident and could dual boot, but I’d definitely look into an updated pc/mac.

I think you can also make a ticket to the Gaijin page not here they can help you and give you more information.
