Some of the vehicles introduced with Update 1.77 are still in service today. Noteworthy here is the special cannon of the T-64B that allows it to fire ‘Cobra’ guided anti-tank missiles and the AMX-30B2 Brenus’ powerful reactive armor. All of them boast powerful weapons, armor, high speed, and mobility. M1 Abrams, British Challenger 1, German Leopard 2K, Soviet T-64B and French AMX-30B2 Brenus. Several next generation main battle tanks of the 1970s and 1980s now reinforce the arsenal of War Thunder on Rank VI: the U.S. Further improvements are also planned for future updates. Aircraft sounds are more vibrant and powerful. The effects themselves received additional details, so players can now hear the sound of cases dropping as they fire, or the working loading mechanisms of their cannons. Thus, experienced tankers are now able to determine the caliber of the cannon that fired the shot, even from distance. Each shot effect is now created from several layers of sounds that correspond to peak and residual effects. These landscape changes are visible to players on all graphics settings.Īccompanying the visual improvements is a complete redesign of in-game sound effects. As a result of Gaijin's continual failure to meet my own standards of sound design, I took it upon myself to make a mod that would accomplish this objective.

Roads, for example, now have potholes, ruts and may show puddles of slush, water or mud – with the latter depending on the current weather and type of terrain. War Thunder sadly lacks this level of sophistication, though efforts have been made over the years to improve it. Main change: Future-proofing by updated to Patch 1.77's new sound formatting, including the newly added music.

Furthermore, the creation of landscapes was improved with the addition of visible reliefs via displacement mapping, resulting in much more visually diverse environments. Posted Ma(edited) To my faithful subscribers and users of Kiwi Aircraft Gunfire Sound Mod, KAGSM v1-3-3 is now released. Also new is Temporal Anti-Aliasing (Variance Clipping TAA), an anti-aliasing algorithm that greatly reduces the visible “noise” on distant vegetation, smooths the appearance of objects, and adds more detail to surfaces. Together with photorealistic weather effects, volumetric fog and smoke, War Thunder is now visually more much more life-like and detailed. The update also adds nearly two dozen new vehicles, including five next generation tanks on Rank VI: the M1 Abrams, Challenger 1, Leopard 2K, T-64B and AMX-30B2 Brenus.Īmong the graphical improvements introduced with Dagor Engine 5.0 are technologies like Global Illumination (GI) and Contact Shadows. “Advancing Storm” introduces War Thunder to Gaijin’s new and improved Dagor 5.0 engine. Gaijin Entertainment today announced the release of major Update 1.77 ‘Advancing Storm’ for its vehicular combat MMOG War Thunder.
