War Thunder CDK

Starting from the Dance of Dragons update, tanks with camouflage nets are being switched to a new shader for texturing camouflage nets. In the Dance of Dragons update, the Vextra 105 and T-80U-E1 switched to the new system, and starting from the Firebirds update, all new vehicles with camouflage nets will be added with the new texturing system.

Since update 1.73 "Vive la France" the default sighting reticle for ground vehicles in War Thunder can be replaced with a custom one, for example if you want to recreate a historical representation of the sight. Custom sights will be created by changing settings in the reticle file rather than in any graphic editor.

If you are bored with the look of your favorite vehicles and the available in-game camouflages are not quite right for your vehicle - a custom camouflage can be a good solution to creating a unique look for your vehicle.

Under the Live WT content creators support program, in every War Thunder major update, 40 user created camouflages are grouped in a special trophy.

With the introduction of update 1.59 "Flaming Arrows", players are able to change the hangar for a custom one.

Localization texts sometimes contain special characters, tags, and other technical elements. Most of them are well known to professional translators and coders, or intuitive, but there is something you need to know – we use the original plurals syntax, see below.

The War Thunder developers periodically refine and update 3D models of vehicles in the game. Custom camouflages for such vehicles may need to be corrected in order to correctly display the custom camouflages created prior to the model update.

You have probably already seen fireworks that War Thunder celebrates important dates with, such as New Year or Victory Day. Now users can define when fireworks will be displayed for them in War Thunder! Create your calendar — add, for example, your birthday or the anniversary of your wedding. And then on these important dates War Thunder will greet you with a display of fireworks that will begin at 20:00 (player local time) until 06:00 the following day.
