In Linux the game work perfectly fine

16

Same for me, game crashing on startup. Drivers up to date.

17

the game crashes as soon as i launch it on opensuse tumbleweed, what distro are you using?

19

I think the game update broke it, see Update 2.27.2.20. I have installed the windows update AFTER the warthunder update and it started breaking on the NOT-upated windows as well.

Wt worked till 4am UTC and crashes now 12am UTC on startup, no changes on Windows in this timeframe, PC was on the whole time, only WT+Launcher was closed startet again

openSUSE Tumbleweed

the only thing maybe you need do is go to WarThunder folder and delete a folder called “cache”

Same, to me it said that an Avast file wasn’t relaiable, uninstalled the anti-virus and the problem remains but it doesn’t says what is the issue now.

24

This worked for me:

Workaround: delete folder \WarThunder\cache\

25

thnx, this workaround worked for me, WT started and loaded into hanger sofar

26

C:\AppData\Local\WarThunder\cache del worked thanks bro i been stressing for half an hour yay

27

Same happened to me but looks like it works again if you delete cache folder so i don’t think it has something to do with a windows update.

28

nice to see more openSUSE Tumbleweed users playing btw : ) @dank_memz

29

the cache delete worked for me as well
thanks war thunder devs

  • Workaround: delete the folder \WarThunder\cache.
  • Workaround for PS4 and PS5 : you can сlear your save data on PS4 (Settings → Application Saved Data Management → Saved Data in System Storage → Delete → War Thunder). Please note that the process of deleting save data or saves does not delete the game.
  • Workaround for Xbox: need to press the Live button, scroll to the War Thunder game, then press the “menu” button on the gamepad, go to the “Manage games and add-ons” section → saved data → on the gamepad you need to press the A button → delete all.

Please note that data that has not been synchronized will be lost.

Sorry for the temporary inconvenience.
