What’s new in version 2.45.0.18
Note: The downloadable file is an installer that will install the product when opened.
Aircraft
- F/A-18 (all variants) — a bug where the aircraft did not sink in water has been fixed. (Report).
- F/A-18C Late — a bug where the player had to press the key for changing NVG mode twice to turn off thermals has been fixed.
- Su-30SM — the hardpoints for the R-77-1 missile, available without researching modifications, have been changed from 5 and 8 to 2 and 11. This means you can combine more guided weapons with them before researching the R-77-1 modification.
- Sea Harrier (all variants) — a bug where the air-to-air missiles did not select after switching to the AAMs HUD mode has been fixed.
- Su-27, Su-27SM, Su-33, J-11, J-11A — missile launch distance indication markers on the HUD have been made thinner.
- Do 217 E-2, Do 217 E-4, Do 217 K-1, Do 217 M-1 — a bug where some of the upper 50 kg bombs in the bomb bay could be dropped through the lower ones has been fixed.

No silicon not even a Universal? Is this 2022 or 2006?

Nice one. Probably, one of the best online games ever.
For those, who can't run War Thunder on Mac: the problem more in macOS, nor hardware part (but your Mac must be a good one; otherwise it might be buggy; or you will be able to play it on low settings)
The solution will be to install Windows 10 as the second OS through Boot Camp (quite easy) and that's it! Work amazing, performance much better than on native macOS. And you can switch between (but beware newest M1 Mac: Boot Camp won't work here)

The requirements marked in MU are incorrect: according to the original website, it needs at least 10.15 and recommends 10.16. Perhaps the people for whom it does not work, the problem comes from the fact that the application can be installed on systems where it does not work. This requirement is not always indicated correctly in the application package, and in many cases that happens: MU does not warn and updates it without actually being able to function correctly.

Don't waste your time with this app. I've had multiple issues trying to make it work on my high spec iMac. Security issues, sign in issues, password wrong issues..etc... I spent a good hour on trying too make it open and run on my iMac with zero success.
