Hello.
I moved War Thunder to steam library, but the game launches with Steam account with 0 lv without any other options. What do I have to do?

I did this like 4 years ago so bear with me, but i think i had to use the actual warthunder launcher and then sign into a steam account there. but i think there is now a feature to link steam and gajin accounts?
You’ll likely need to contact support to get the new account you’ve created on your steam account cleared out, so you can link your gaijin account to your steam account.
No idea really though as the support page says it doesn’t happen, but I have no idea on whether this link is even accurate considering the other games on there mentioning how to link steam accounts to existing gaijin accounts
And the fact that I have mine linked to my steam account from long ago.
I’m calling bullshit on you can’t link your steam to your gaijin account because I had a gaijin account then I moved to it to stream no problem before but when u tried it again on a new pc it didn’t work
You can call it whatever you like, it doesn’t change the fact that things have obviously changed.
Hell, I even said that I had my gaijin account linked to my steam account, and linked to the article saying it doesn’t happen anymore.
wait i have been re-installing war thunder via steam instead from there website to i get to use my gaijin account?
I found a way. When you start war thunder via steam you automaticly log in via steam acc, to bypass that you go to gajin website , log in using steam acc and delete gajin account linked to steam. Then you start war thunder an it will hit you with error that your accout has been deleted. Press try again and it will show you log in screen. Log in using your gajin account.

Thanks for your help
have had this problem for so long, having to launch through the gaijin launcher itself and this finally fixed it for me. salute to you
i am thinking of deleting the game for a while but i dont want to loose my progress i have made my gajin with which i first logged into the game is it enough to save my progress?
What you’re responding to is a comment about someone who had made a second account inadvertantly.
If you’ve got the credentials to the account, and still have access to the email address it is registered to, then you should lose nothing. When you link your account to steam, nothing will change but the steam client can login without the credentials, and you can still log in to the vanilla client as well.
Just be sure to establish that you have the credentials and access to the email address and you should be fine.
The only thing you may lose is your control customization, which you could save by making sure you save the My Games folder in your My Documents folder, as that’s where it’s storing all the config files. You can also save your control profile by itself from in the game, so you can re-import them when you reinstall the game.
And this would only happen if you delete the My Games/Warthunder folder, or did a complete reinstall.
Just be careful and be prepared, and you’ll be fine. Hit me back if you need more, I’ll be out for a while but I’ll give more if you need it when I get back.
