Default/Rainhard (had just defaults before). There is also something about blur, in many cases chasing jets is like chasing a shadow as it blends with background. I also turned heat haze off to try to mitigate any such things.

Again?!?
Not sure if there’s any aircraft which has so often had its ballistic computer changed as the F-84F…

It’s also a change that’s getting people killed in ground a fair bit. Seen it a lot.
Used to be when you were shot at you could hit reverse with S and switch to binos or gunsight to find the enemy while you were retrograding. Now when you go out of binos or gunsight it cancels both actions so you have to reapply S or you just stop. (Also causes the same problem if you’re going forward and trying to switch views).
So if you see people just stopping more under fire for some reason these days, that’s why. This was not a good change.

I’ll add that when you set it up so releasing a button on the mouse also releases the button you had pressed on the keyboard, you’ve kind of defeated half the point of “mouse AND keyboard”. Gaijin used to be so good at this, it’s what made them stand out among their competitors, but here they’ve lost the plot, it seems.

Update 16.09.24:
Thx to this update i have to reassign several key bindings every time i launch wt. This significantly reduces my motivation to play the game as it gets even more frustrating - no chance for a few quick matches between 2 zoom calls…
To be fair: Not all settings reset after closing the game - mainly view options and usage of armament are resetting; my MEC settings and stuff like flaps or air brake usage are somehow unchanged.
Thanks to the necessity to this reassigning of key bindings every day i was able to reduce the necessary time to restore them from ~ 20 to ~ 5-7 minutes. Saving those settings still don’t work…

Very much appreciated, thanks a bunch.

I'm completely wrong here, lol
You only get access to secondary weapons from unlocked modules during test flight. and the JF-17 get no stock secondaries (which is honestly weird that it doesn’t).

That impacts all aircraft in the game, not just JF-17.
If you do not own it, you cannot select the default equipment.
but i had access secondary weapons 2 days ago when test flying it

Yes it does, it gets several stock secondary loadouts.
edit - it gets 2, the stock missile loadout and the drop tank loadout.
Likely just a recent bug. You definitely could select the loadouts before when test flying unowned planes.
Just have to wait for a hotfix.
What happened with testing the new APHE change?
It was in the new patch at day one, then the next day it was removed…
:/

Yeah i’m wrong, i misremembered several things which lead to a faulty conclusion (i thought stock ordinance was marked white in the secondary loadout menu even when the plane isn’t owned).
I have looked at more planes and it seems like a universal issue, the only planes not affected are the “pack” ones it seems like.

All good.
as a person who mainly plays war thunder to test drive i am deeply saddened
So, it has been this way for a couple/few years now, you are only able to use the full loadout in a test drive with Premium Vehicles. All other event vehicles, squad vehicles, or tech tree vehicles, will NOT have any researchable/modification weapons available to use in a test drive. I would much prefer if it if you could actually test everything for all vehicles, rather than just premium vehicles. (Even if you select “reference” in the test drive options, you still will not be able to use any ammo or weapons that have to be unlocked through research.)
This issue isn’t about the full loadout, its about the ability to test fly even stock ordinance on non-owned vehicles. Which we have been able to do before recently. i know about not being able to chose non-stock ordinance during testflight, but now nothing is selectable at all.
