Known Issues with 9.0

Trevzor: Hey there tankers!   With the release of 9.0 we have started to gather information with issues that we are experiencing.   Current known issues are as follows: Random Crashes We have experienced this with multiple tanks, not just the Hellcat Remember that if you're running any mods you should remove them and see if the issue persists [UPDATE] We have had some reports that deleting your preferences.xml file that is found in the Wargaming.net folder in the %appdata% folder as well as making sure your graphics drivers are up to date seems to be help. We have not been able to confirm in office as of yet, stay tuned for more updates! [UPDATE 2] Reports of setting graphics from "Improved" to "Standard" could be a temporary reprieve for the crash issue. Work continues on hunting down a fix. Indestructible walls on Widepark  Not all of the walls, but some of them can't be destroyed Crashes in Historical Battles Other regions have also reported this issue [UPDATE] Severe FPS loss reports Auto Detect the graphic settings and verify drivers Set the 3D slider to a lower setting and turn off Anti Aliasing Investigation continues ​[UPDATE 2] After extensive testing in house, we have seen that processor settings can be the cause of FPS drops​ ​Please check your processor affinity for World of Tanks to assure that it is functioning on all cores of your processor (a guide on setting processor affinity can be found here) [UPDATE 3] There have been claims that replacing your engine_config.xml file with a different one that disables core balancing helps ​Download THIS file, extract the xml file from it and place said xml file in the 0.9.0 folder in the res_mods folder (found in the root World of Tanks folder) ​I say res_mods because it will still offer the same functionality from this folder without having to back up the engine_config file in the res folder. If the performance does not change or is worse, just remove the file from the 0.9.0 folder.   [UPDATE!] Patch for crashes and some of the FPS issues is inbound! Check out jinxx71's post [ HERE ] The patch will hopefully be out by Friday.   I will be keeping this thread up to date with what is going on with these and any other issues found.
