Hello everyone,
I recently learned how to add my own Camouflage Designs and patterns to any vehicle I want and thus got more immersed in War Thunders vehicle customization.
But I soon noticed a limitation of War Thunders customization feature:
The Limitation
While the option to create a Camouflage Template is in the game to allow for custom Camouflages to be made as well as using Camos from WT Live, there is nothing for Decals.
- No Slider to “Enable User Decals”
- No Magic Wand symbol to “Create Custom Decal Template”
- No WT Live Decals to download and apply.
While it is possible to apply Custom Decals, this can only be done by creating a Skin Template of the desired vehicle, put the .TGA file of the Skin Mesh into a Photoshop program and then manually paint over existing Default Decals on the Default Skin, to apply your own. But then you have created a whole new User Skin that has the Decals Photoshopped on it.
There is no dedicated in-game Feature that would make this more accessible and User Friendly.
I Suggest
- Adding a “Create Decal Template” function
- An option to “Enable User Decals”
- A dropdown field with the Decal name

Note that this is just an improvised Prototype based on an Old War Thunder Wiki picture that I edited.

Functionality in game
The overall functionality would follow the same principles as User Skins. Only the User can see their Decals and WT Live Decals.
Here is a picture of the EF-2000 with User Decals applied:
