I'm also getting random crashes while in the garage... the video goes completely blank... alt + tab can't switch to another running program.. can't see anything. If I shut down, the computer restarts and shows no video. I need to hold the power button until everything shuts off the second time, then I can restart and continue.

Have to quit and restart, but when I do, I still can't use arty - keyboard no longer functions, mouse wont focus a target on the minimap either. It's done. 


Fangsuei_17, on Oct 07 2016 - 01:57, said: So, I downloaded the new update, but now whenever I fire at an enemy tank for the first time, the game freezes for a few seconds, and then continues on. I fiddled around with the settings, thinking that the problem maybe there, but it wasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this, or is it just me? I'm running World of Tanks on my MacBook Pro and it is running Yosemite.

zhymm, on Oct 06 2016 - 18:50, said:   Are you able to run a WGCheck Diagnostic? I'd like to take a look at your system and game files. Are you running a Windows OS or Mac OS?         Running WoT with Play On Linux (POL).   I have not been able to run the WGCheck.exe file.  It's odd, too.  I can run other .exe files with Wine, but I haven't sussed out why this one fails.  The main thing is the emblems function worked for me using POL prior to 9.15.  I was hoping the new patch (9.16) would bring a "fix" for it. But, alas ... no luck, yet.

Nuclear_Ferret, on Oct 06 2016 - 15:05, said: I would like to see the red directional arrows for incoming damage removed from the game.  For me, this just seems absurd since tanks would not have that information and (in my opinion), it uselessly clutters the game screen and makes running TDs less effective.     One other thing I would like to see removed is the notice on the screen about which tank and username killed your tank. To me, this information is both redundant and annoying since a player can see that information in the battle details (if they wish) after the battle has ended.  I mean, come on, does anyone REALLY care about who killed their tank??  When your tank is dead, it is dead;  Force-feeding that information to everyone's screen is an unnecessary annoyance.

Hurk, on Oct 06 2016 - 11:04, said: i like the new features, but im not using any of them.    garage carousel, i need 3 rows, not 2.  damage angle stickers. they are in the middle of the screen and blocking my view, i prefer my old ones that were closer to the edge where they actually help my aim.  damage panel, data is too sparse, cannot set them side by side like XVM always has.    i didnt really need a tank compare tool, though its nice to have.  I would like to see armor inspector integrated into the game instead of being a phone app.

zhymm, on Oct 06 2016 - 14:14, said: Can not add emblems to any tanks.  When I click on the "emblem" box in the exterior garage the game client freezes and locks up my computer.  I have to power down the computer to regain control.  For me, this "bug" started with patch 9.15.  It persists with the latest patch, 9.16.  Prior to 9.15 I had no problematic issues with adding emblems to tanks.  It's a minor annoyance but an annoyance none-the-less.   Running the "plain vanilla" client, no third-party mods installed.   Conversations with other players reveal that some of them share this problem.  I know this is a minor item, but seeing how it takes gold (and potentially real money) to mount some emblems, this has to be reducing (in a small way) WoT-NA's cash flow.  Not that I really care about your cash flow other than if it's insufficient the game would disappear.   OMZ


carapolla, on Oct 06 2016 - 14:57, said: Apparently i can't play anymore. After updating my client when i click on the orange button "Play" my game crashes and i can't save data so it is sent to you because it won't load. I play on iMac. macOS sierra version 10.12. I've had problems before with not loading the battle screen but codeweavers helped me and solved it. But now I can't even enter the garage or login so please solve this because I can't play at all!

GHR1227, on Oct 06 2016 - 05:21, said: Is this a bug?  I got 100 base cap points and I didn't get invader.  I capped right before last tank was killed. The screen shot clearly shows 100 capture points.   Looking at the conditions it's ambiguous of what happens when you cap and all tanks are killed.   What is odd is the replay does not show ANY information that I capture base points. Is the base capture point information not showing up for the replay a bug? http://wotreplays.co...302704cbf3f4fe3

bbhullen, on Oct 06 2016 - 01:15, said: Mini map issue. Before the up date, if I enlarged my mini map it stayed that size in all games unless I changed it. Now I have to in large it at the start of every game. 


Somhlth, on Oct 06 2016 - 02:03, said: There seems to be a bug with Battle Results.  After the end of a battle, I can see the Battle Results just fine.  However, if I close the Battle Results screen, I can no longer re-open it.  I can scroll up and see the summary results for each battle played in that session, but I can't open any of them up, after the fact.


Vallanor, on Oct 06 2016 - 02:24, said: Having lots of lag spikes that didn't happen before the update. Ill have 30-60 ms which is fine but is goes up to 400 ms every 10 seconds or so i loose control of my tank.

blacktulip13, on Oct 06 2016 - 03:04, said: my client doesnt loads, freezes while loading and crashes, I've could only load the game on safe mode (that sucks), same minimap issue, also the voice notifications disappear after the battle starts, that was only at 2 battles and more than 15 attempts to start the game, good thing this patch was tested...


Thorin_Iron_Shield, on Oct 06 2016 - 03:17, said: I cant enlarge my mini map behind the team list anymore. I play on a laptop and have large team lists on the side. If I open in a large window I can up size it once, but in full screen nothing. This MAJORLY sucks. Is this permanent or will this get fixed at some point? Trying to read a two inch high mini map at a glance is almost impossible. Last patch overlaid the team list over the mini map if you enlarged to to much, and that was annoying but at least still playable.

Sanisk, on Oct 05 2016 - 18:37, said: Found a bug on the Battle results - Team Score tab. No mods installed yet.   When you click on people to see more info, the right panel sticks to them. As you can see, I have the IS-6 selected, but it still shows the Rhm. Same thing if I click on anyone else, the Rhm stays there.   After looking into it, it seems to happen when they have Top Gun or Steel Wall medals (the Leo PTA has High Caliber and Confederate, it didn't freeze). It only froze on these 2 medals so far, but there might be more than these 2. The medals images are not displayed on the top of the right panel on the screenshot, so I'd take a guess that this is where there's a problem.   Just to make it clear : - Open battle result - Go to team score tab - Click on players with no medals, no problem. - Click on Player X (the Rhm, in this case), who has a Top Gun or Steel Wall. The info panel will appear, the medal image on the red strip on top of it won't appear. - Click on anyone else. It will stay stuck on Player X (Rhm).  - If you click "Close" on the bottom, and try to open another one, it's still going to display Player X (Rhm). - If you close the Battle Results window and reopen it, it won't be stuck on Player X anymore, until you click on him again (or anyone with these 2 medals).
