WoT: 1.18 Release Patchnotes

Main Changes

Support of 32-bit Operating Systems Discontinued

With the release of the update, support of 32-bit operating systems will be discontinued.

The minimum system requirements for RAM, as well as for the Recommended and Ultra graphics quality have been updated.

Note: After 2022, we will not be able to ensure the operation and stability of the client for players using 32-bit operating systems, as well as provide them with technical support.

New Branch of Italian Tank Destroyers

Six new tank destroyers (from Tier V to Tier X) have been added:

• Tier VII—SMV CC-56
• Tier VIII—SMV CC-67
• Tier IX—Controcarro 1 Mk. 2
• Tier Х—Controcarro 3 Minotauro

Improved Visuals for Destroyed Vehicle Tracks

Technology for the physically correct behavior of knocked-down vehicle tracks has been added.

The Track Physics setting has been added. The new technology will be used when the Standard or higher option is selected. If the setting is disabled, the visuals for destroyed vehicle tracks will be displayed as before.

This setting will be enabled by default for the High-Ultra presets, as well as for the Custom preset and the Object LOD parameter set at High or better.

A limit of no more than one wheeled vehicle per team has been introduced in Random Battles.

From now on, only one light tank or wheeled vehicle is allowed per Platoon. The limit is applicable to Tiers VII–X.
