did you leave your Mac with WT working or did you start from the beginning

from my perspective WT bounces for 2 mins then it stops bouncing but without launching
It says that it isn’t responding and then I force it to quit

It just started working normally again for me. No change on my end, other than trying again after 30min.

Same and the same issue is happening to me

I updated the game last night and it didn’t launch after many attempts. I deleted the game off my external SSD and redownloaded the launcher. I then waited for hours for it to finally download full HD and it just finished. the same problems are happening on my mac.

FWI: My Mac is a 13 inch M1 2020 running Sonoma 14.5

gaijin fix this pls I need to continue the grind

The newest newest patch also doesn’t resolve this issue. Ive seen someone say it was fixed after they let it sit and load but that doesn’t appear to work on my end

Same issue here, I deleted the game and redownloaded it but still nothing…

Same issue here, War Thunder didn’t Launch at all after clicking play button on the Launcher. Running Ventura 13.6.3

I also thought WT would not start on my M1 after the update yesterday.
Went to do something else and what do you think? After 30 Minutes or so the game started. Now there ist no issue (at least with starting WT) any more.

Maybe its the game verifying again after the update? Maybe the verification progress bar just doesn’t show up like usual which is why the game shows app not responding?

It still won’t open here. It bounces up and down for a couple minutes then just stops bouncing without even opening… did you do anything to make it work?

21

Damn! that sucks!
Didn’t do anything but watching youtube.

22

aw man are you lucky

23

same here as well, reinstalled 3 times and cleared out all old files, its because the metal driver is not working with the game and gaijin needs to fix it. i made it to the hangar but it freezes when the first frame renders. please gaijin make it work im losing my premium…
