Game Update 1.0.7

Оригинал · русский перевод пока недоступен

Dear Tankers and Mechanics!

Sitrep

Hello, we are releasing the seventh game update. We have fixed some major bugs when driving a tank in the multicrew mode as a commander and the fact that the game could load the wrong mission as it should.

We have added dedicated armour for the StuG III G and the PzKpfw III Ausf. M, and we have made a few cosmetic changes, including improvements to the X-ray view. By default, the tank modules are represented in a uniform grey colour and turn red when there is penetration/a hit, to represent state after being destroyed.

Development Status (kinda)

In the background, we are working on the tutorials further, and we are adding the Flakvierling 38 anti-aircraft gun to the game, which will probably appear somewhere in the new missions in the mini-campaign.

Sebastian is developing a prototype for a new way of rendering periscopes using the same camera, one instead of rendering several cameras to so-called ‘render textures’. With this procedure we will achieve a sharp real-time image in the view from the inside of the tank without any drop in performance - because we won't have to render several cameras at once which consumes resources heavily.

Thank you for your support, we are working. See you next time!

Known issues:

Chinese localization is under heavy improvements currently
missing tutorial - bigger subject
Currently, everything is sitting on one processor core, which means that the rest of the resources, e.g. the GPU is waiting and only for example 20% of the graphics card can be in use. So there is a lot of potential to free up, which will result in an increase in FPS, better textures because more can be allocated, etc. So in basic words - no matter what GPU you have, the better CPU the better game will have performance - This is huge thing that we need to address in upcoming updates
of course there is more...

Thank you and have a good one! DeGenerals
